"Tribe", (known as "Going Tribal" in the United States) is a documentary television series co-produced by the BBC and the Discovery Channel, and hosted by Bruce Parry.

In each series, Parry — a former British Royal Marine — visits a number of remote tribes in such locales as the Himalayas, Ethiopia, West Papua, Gabon and Mongolia, spending a month living and interacting with each society. While there, Parry adopts the methods and practices of his hosts, participating in their rituals and exploring their cultural norms. This often enables him to form personal bonds with the members of each tribe.

Parry tries to learn the basics of the tribe's language but is also accompanied by a translator.

The series is co-produced by BBC Wales and the Discovery Channel. A second series aired in July, 2006 and the third began on 21 August 2007 on BBC2, and ended on 25 September 2007. No further series have been made, though Parry's 2008 series, "Amazon" has a similar synopsis.

Episodes

Original episode titles in the UK are only given as the name of the tribe. When aired in the US, episodes were given different titles; those titles are shown here in parentheses.
