DirecTV will debut the new original series from Defiance Entertainment LLC Odyssey: Driving Around the World. The series will debut 13-episodes of the series on original entertainment channel The 101 of DirecTV on June 5 at 8 p.m. ET. to raise money and awareness for Parkinson’s disease. “Odyssey: Driving Around the World” produced and directed by Adam Burgess of Burgess Productions will be aired every Wednesday night in high-definition, the series will take viewers on a worldwide journey with team leader Nick and his six cohorts Neil, Rolf, Todd, Chanda, Nancy and Justin as they explore the different terrain and cultures of 26 Countries.

The trip raised more than $100,000 for Parkinson’s research and was supported by Michael J. Fox, James Caan, and the Dalai Lama — all of whom signed the three SUVs to be auctioned off to raise additional funds.
