Have you seen it? There's a new TV spot with Samantha Brown from the Travel Channel. It's a pretty good spot and feels more like an endorsement. With the popularity of personalities that appear on the various cable networks, I think it's a good move.
And because I'm weird about the celebrities I'm into, she's on my special list. I'd watch her on any TV show.

I agree, I like Samantha Brown.
I'm gearing up for the crap storm of "that TV spot is lame." from the Xtreeemeee!1 crowd, though.
I have seven words: "Wake up and smell the funnel cakes".
2005 - Snake River Falls
2006 - MF, WT, CCMR (and pretty much everything else...)
2007 and beyond - Disney
After Googling Samantha Brown I realize I just saw that commercial as I mentioned in another thread. I actually have a good friend named Samantha Brown. Pretty generic name I guess.
We'll miss you MrScott and Pete
I love Samantha Brown. I can't wait to see the new commercial.
I wonder if she stayed at one of the hotels! Was it a Great Hotel or was it a Passport to 1900. (sorry for the Travel Channel jokes) :-)
Visual Scan!
First Top Thrill Dragster train of 2011!

Samantha Brown saved my life once, we were camping in the Teton's looking for of course....a great scenic view with delicious treats. And this bear came and just tried to swipe me away but she looked at that bear so stern.....
The bear just walked away

I was surprised when I saw Samantha Brown as well. As a popular "travel destination host", I think the commercial will be good PR for Cedar Point.
"You wanna, you gotta, you hafta hold on, Cedar Point...HOLD ON!"
Of course, if she were reviewing the hotels, she'd probably say they suck, but that's OK. I'd admire her even more.

I haven't seen the commercial, but I really like Samantha Brown. She has the best job in the world.
She gets to travel around the world and gets paid for it, too.

We have a "catch-all" commercial thread over in the News forum with YouTube links, as they become available.
I just saw it, very nice. She has new episodes of Pass Port to great Weekends starting tonight at 10pm on the Travel Channel.

Sorry Trent, Zane Lamprey actually has the best job in the world, hands down.
Check out his show....Three Sheets

I saw it for the first time Friday evening. I honestly think it is a little corny for Cedar Point. I liked last seasons better.

Never heard of that show. I don't have that channel.
No one does since it's not a channel anymore. You can watch it on hulu though.
It'll be back on the air this summer on Fine Living Network, check it out there.
What better of a job than to travel all over the world on someone else's dime and get to drink the most expensive and rarest beers, wines and liquors there are. So essentially he gets paid to travel and get plastered.

Nice spot. One low price well its a good thing she didn't mention staying at one of the resorts, thats not one low price, its one high price.
Shoot the rapids, tame and dry. Thunder Canyon, wet and laughter. Snake River Falls, soaked and smiling. White Water Landing and the old shoot the rapids, Fun and missed.
