William Shatner rode majestic horses in Madrid. And Terry Bradshaw strode through a Munich city park wearing nothing but a cowboy hat and sneakers.

“That was not a good moment for me,” the 69-year-old former football star said. After traipsing across Asia in the first season of their travelogue reality show, “Better Late Than Never,” the sports and entertainment icons, along with comedian Jeff Dye, reunite for a tour of Europe in season two, which premieres New Year’s Day on NBC. “The first shows, we were, in effect, being paid to be friends. Essentially, nobody knew each other,” Shatner, 86, said. “This time, everybody suddenly relaxed. And now, if we were to do it again, it would go to another level.” All five said they’d do a third season without hesitation.

“This is like a gift out of the heavens that fell in our laps,” 72-year-old Winkler said. “We got to do things in the last two years that we would never have done.” “There’s a picture of us riding camels in the Sahara and dancing with a Bedouin tribe,” Shatner said. Modeled after an unscripted Korean TV series called “Grandpas Over Flowers,” which brought a group of actors in their 70s into playful situations in foreign settings, “Better Late Than Never” was a hit when it premiered in the summer of 2016. There are twice as many episodes — eight — in season two. Some of the guys’ adventures across the seven cities and five countries they visit include: being treated at a “hangover hospital” during Oktoberfest in Munich, suffering through pickled herring in Stockholm, parasailing in Barcelona, Spain, and motorbiking in Marrakesh. “I’ve traveled all over the place, but I never saw the world the way we saw it together,” Foreman, 68, said.

Better Late Than Never is an American reality-travel show series that airs on NBC and is produced. William Shatner; Henry Winkler; George Foreman; Terry Bradshaw. William Shatner, Henry Winkler and George Foreman have signed on to star in NBC's travelogue reality series 'Better Late Than Never,' from producers Craig Zadan and.

“The difference is we saw things.” Sometimes they saw more than they wanted, as Bradshaw wasn’t the only one to get naked (or “nekkid,” as he puts it). Winkler also went nude as an art-class model during one of their outings. “It’s all about getting these guys in the middle of an adventure and letting them react to that in the best way possible,” said executive producer Jason Ehrlich. They filmed 10 to 12 hours a day during the 40-day trip, Winkler said: “There is no script, so we are constantly at our psychic height.” They insist, though, that they’re being their real selves throughout. Producers don’t manipulate the taping or editing to make the men appear a certain way, Dye said.

“It’s just genuinely us having fun,” he said. Bradshaw said he’s never watched himself onscreen in the 33 years he’s been a TV football commentator, but he couldn’t wait to tune in to the first season of this show. “I sat there and I laughed until I couldn’t stand myself,” he said. “I wanted to watch, because I knew how funny it was when we were doing it. And it wasn’t about watching you. It was about watching the show.” The five feel like a family after two epic trips together.

Bradshaw suggests they could head deeper into to Africa next time. Winkler likes the idea of a trip across the U.S. Regardless of where they end up, Dye, the youngster in the bunch at 34, hopes viewers are encouraged by the experiences of a group of old guys and one not-so-old guy. “I think people should watch it and go: It doesn’t matter how young you are, how old you are, what you know or what your education is, just go do stuff.’” Bradshaw’s take: “What it’s going to show is guys on the screen that literally just don’t care anymore. I think it’s fascinating to see that we’re not afraid to pretty much let you see how we are, and that’s funny.” Sandy Cohen is an Associated Press writer.

On Tuesday it was announced that Better Late Than Never, NBC's newest reality series, will star Henry Winkler, William Shatner, Terry Bradshaw, George Foreman and Jeff Dye. Beginning production in August, the show will feature the five men on an Asian holiday as they travel through Tokyo, Kyoto, Seoul, Hong Kong, Bangkok and Chang Mai. The catch being that these movie stars and athletes will forfeit their accustomed luxuries - limos, assistants, translators - as they attempt to navigate the trip as ordinary and oblivious tourists. Travel buddies: William Shatner, 84, will star alongside Henry Winkler, 69, in NBC's new show Better Late Than Never. Here Shatner and Winkler are seen in Los Angeles in April 'The five will navigate their way through each city — communicating with the local population, immersing themselves in local traditions and enjoying exotic food — all the while dealing with the unexpected twists and turns that any trip presents,' the network said in a statement. 'As they check off items on their own personal 'bucket list,' the five will rely on each other for support and encouragement and, in the process, demonstrate that friendship is the ultimate gift.' The idea behind the show comes from South Korean program Grandpas Over Flowers.

Sports stars: Terry Sports stars: Terry Bradshaw, 66, and George Foreman, 66, will be joining the iconic TV actors on the show. Here Terry is seen in January in Pheonix and George in New York in 2008 Shatner, 84, is an Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actor most iconic for playing Captain James T. Kirk on Star Trek in the 1960s.

Currently, he's best known as the Priceline Negotiator in commercials for the travel booking website. Today Winkler, 69, is known for his bumbling characters as a doctor and a lawyer on Parks and Recreation and Arrested Development, respectively. But his most famous role was as the indelibly cool Fonzie on Happy Days. Former two-time heavyweight champion of the world, George Foreman, 66, went on to become a cooking personality with his George Foreman Grill - which has sold over 100 million units worldwide. Wild card: Jeff Dye, 32, is more than 30 years younger than all of his co-stars While playing quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Terry Bradshaw, 66, led his team to four victories. Since 1994 he has been a sports analyst and co-host of Fox NFL Sunday.

More than 30 years younger than his co-stars, Jeff Dye, 32, seems to be a wild card. He was likely thrown into the mix to accentuate the travel difficulties of the elder cast members.

And with a comedic background - he was a star on NBC's Last Comic Standing - Dye will certainly add some wit and humour.
