I've tried 2 or 3 of this kind of show in the past, found them too over-scripted and not interesting enough to keep going. YouTube has better car content IMHO (and, of course, worse content too).

I really dont like the suck-up braided-beard paint boy. He irritates the living hell out of me and I can't quite figure out why. I think of him as the human equivalent of marsipan.
Sooo... what do you think of marzipan? And did you only taste the common marzipan or the good stuff with more almonds and less sugar?

Most people in Las Vegas bet with chips, but Danny "The Count" Koker bets with cars.

Anyone else hooked on these goddamn US reality tv car/recycled shop shows? Pawn Stars, American Pickers, Misfits Garage, Fast and Loud, Counting Cars. It7s goddam crack cocaine tv, I CANNOT change channels when this shit comes on. Maybe its my old retail days in the record shop, vague stiffy for old seppo cars, whatever. It's so formulaic and stupid and lowbrow and riddled with the same bullshit every week (“oh look, another fuckhead Coca Cola sign, how much can we flip that for?”) and I just can't get enough
Counting Cars.
I don't know anything about cars but, stupidly, I always think the cars look better when they come in to the garage than after theyre all done up, with some wanky fruity purple paint job on them, dickwad flames on the sides, and some other overly shiny “look at me” rubbish.
The main ponytailed bandana boss guy, much respect, he knows his cars back to front and sideways, spots one in a driveway 200 yards away, “oh look, a 68 hemiblock 338 with flattened 62 shocks and a torque barrel 0.32 decompositer. The 0.34 decompositer only came out in '69 models.”
The manufactured arguing between the horns guy and the insipid brownnose braided-beard paint boy is just an insult though. An affront to the human race. Nobody talks to each other like that. If they did you'd just punch them in the face within a week or tell the boss fuck this shit, its him or its me. I really dont like the suck-up braided-beard paint boy. He irritates the living hell out of me and I can't quite figure out why. I think of him as the human equivalent of marsipan.
