The Philanthropist is a new TV show brought to us by American television network NBC. In the first episode set in Nigeria the protagonist Teddy Rist saves a Nigerian kid from drowning, attempts to bribe custom officials in a Nigerian airport, and barters with a Nigerian villager.

Despite a few inaccurate portrayals of Nigerians and Nigeria as a whole. It seems to be a pretty good show or at least unique compared to other shows out there. To watch the first episode check out one of the links below:
