Jeff Schroeder and Jordan Lloyd, who starred in the reality series “The Amazing Race” and “Big Brother,” are starring in a new CBS.com web-only series, “Jeff & Jordan Do America,” where they drive Route 66 from Chicago to Los Angeles to begin a new life.
Here’s a preview of the show, which begins July 18:

Here’s a 30-minute web chat with them about the show. The best tidbit about their Route 66 starts around the 13-minute mark:
I sure hope “Jeff & Jordan Do America” fares better than the awful “Great American Road Trip” reality series from 2009.
Most “reality” shows are anything but. Scripting and staging scenes is the norm and encouraging the extras to exaggerate is expected. I will watch it once but I won’t be holding my breath.
