It certainly did, and more. I have since purchased and viewed Palin's New Europe series, and while I found that to be interesting it doesn't compare with Around the World. The reason? In addition to giving us a glimpse of some fascinating people and places, Palin is in a race against the clock, which gives the whole journey an edgy feel. The host's marvelous sense of humor is tested on several occasions, as he and the film crew overcome a series of obstacles. It all makes for highly entertaining viewing. I especially enjoyed the final episode, when Palin arrives home in England to a rather dispiriting welcome from his countrymen.
