A new series called “Paranormal Caught on Camera” (10 p.m., Travel, TV-PG) debuts with alleged poltergeist activity captured in a Texas motel room described as “seedy.” Other highlights include a UFO sighting over a sacred shrine and a chat with two hikers who claim to have spotted Sasquatch.
Time was, travel magazines and documentaries accented the food, wine and cultural diversity of places all over the world. Expeditions, even those undertaken merely by armchair travelers, were exercises in cultural enrichment and opportunities for expansion. For years, Travel brought us “No Reservations” with the late Anthony Bourdain, who truly focused on cultural exploration. Sadly, he’s impossible to replace.
