I don't know what else to call them but reality shows but does anyone watch them? I really got interested in them a few months ago. My favs are:

Overhaulin'
Rides
Fast N Loud

Whatcha say?

Overhaulin' was always a favorite, does it still air new episodes? Fast N Loud is good, they build nice stuff without too much drama mixed in. Also love Top Gear(real one, not the US shite show) but I don't have BBC so I typically have to get my fix online.

I'm a fast N loud fan, but I hate that they are force feeding the misfits spinoff. Those guys are terrible.

I like several of them but Overhaulin' is my favorite. I like it most because they are helping someone get a restored ride that usually couldn't afford it or haven't had the time to do it.

Part of the reason I liked the show was they don't interject too much drama with the exception of Richard acting like he's always going broke. From what I understand his net worth is somewhere around $10 million and that he actually started the shop partially to pitch it for a TV show. The Misfits spinoff is just terrible.

Overhaulin was a great show. Chip Foose really knows how to build a custom car.

His humor is usually subtle, which I like about him. They were recently escorted out of Argentina, Clarkson's license plate referenced some Argentianian war and the locals went apeshit.

Richard fits the smart sleazy used car salesman to a T. He hustled the viewers when he fired the Mis Fit guys from Gas Monkey. Then what you know the all of sudden reappear with a their own spin off show owned and produced by Richard.

Got to go I'm on a tight deadline and I'll never get it all done before for the weekend

I like overhaulin, but you are forgetting the true GOAT, Stacey David. I would watch Trucks or Gearz every sunday morning.

Love project Copperhead

I still catch Gearz occassionally and have my DVR set to record all the Powerblock shows on Spike(Trucks, Extreme 4x4, etc) but rarely watch them, they aren't the same without Stacey.

When he was doing Trucks car companies like Ford, Dodge, GM, would give him vehicle to build up for the show. Then they'd turn around and crush them. If I remember right when he found this out he almost quit the show, that's when they started doing builds for regular people, his own vehicles, etc.

Wheeler Dealers is one I like. You learn how to do a few things on that show that you can use at home.
