The final season of Anthony Bourdain's CNN show Parts Unknown will premiere on Sept. 23, starting with the last episode Bourdain finished narrating and editing before dying by suicide in June. You get a taste of that episode, featuring a trip to Kenya with comedian and United Shades of America host W. Kamau Bell, in the final trailer for the final season. Along with footage from Kenya, the clip shows Bell watching parts of the episode and recalling the pressure and elation he felt traveling with Bourdain. "Everybody who had dreams of traveling with Tony, it's exactly as cool as you think it is," he said.
