Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
brilliant actors, brilliant editing
A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
View MoreGraveyard Carz has one thing that I really love and respect. That would be they take Mopar muscle cars and bring them back to factory spec without mods. They usually are better since these are 100% hand-built restorations with as many original parts as can possibly be sourced. That said it seems to have an identity crisis. It wants to be entertaining like so many cars shows with characters and witty dialog yet it also wants to be instructive and show the care of a real restoration done faithfully. The main guy tries too hard and the instruction often leaves out crucial phases and steps out. I'll watch it for the way the cars are spectacularly finished, but I wish it would decide if it wants to be serious or entertainment.
View MoreI am a dedicated Mopar guy.To have a show dedicated 100% to old Mopars is wonderful. Mopars are not the easiest to restore and Mark is very smart. I think they are just having fun. Having a show that is just showing hours of sanding would not be entertaining. I find it educational and entertaining.I have to say Will is my favorite. He is a great painter and I believe Mark knows that. He is calm and laughs as though he has a low tolerance for Mark's behavior. Alyssa has a lot of patience, between her Dad and Will they are mean to her. Thank God Dave is gentlemen as he is working with Alyssa. Dave is also very good. I record all the shows. I actually want to tour their shop and meet the team.
View MoreI'm puzzled at the some of the reviews I've read here. If you are a muscle car fan, Mopar especially, this is what dreams are made of. This show is extremely informative. If you are restoring a Mopar, you will learn details that you could only hope to learn otherwise. It's TV and so yes, there is additional drama, made up or otherwise, but if you really like cars, it doesn't detract in the slightest from the purpose of the series. For those that have written reviews about the " arrogance" of Mark, these people have absolute zero sense of humor and must take themselves way too seriously in life. Mark doesn't, and it's clear he doesn't mind making fun of himself. His humor is genuine and indicative of a man who absolutely loves what he does for a living, corny, campy or otherwise. Good thing for all us Mopar fans !!! I've had the pleasure of speaking with Mark personally on occasion and he is one of the nicest and most engaging individuals I've crossed paths with. Very helpful and more than willing to share his knowledge. Don't kid yourself, this guy is the Mopar real deal. He is a veritable encyclopedia of Chrysler information. The rest of the crew are very likable and extremely talented as well. It would be a crime for muscle car fans everywhere if this show were to end. Can't get enough of it, but then again, I love all things related to muscle cars !!!
View MoreThis retard fest, filled with self aggrandizing, childish banter, and fake threats of violence from obvious girly wimp-meisters, is an affront to intelligence. These losers climb on top of each other, belittling one another, imagining that this will make them seem smarter to viewers. What it does is make us want to ask velocity to stop showing this, and send it to Tree House, change the language to Korean, so our kids won't be corrupted by all the unnecessary profanity. If these guys would stop fighting and bad mouthing one another, and just do their work, the vehicles that they work on would be enough for success. Watching a MOPAR rebuild is exciting, but it is ruined by the infantile displays of these idiots. It is Garbage, pure garbage!
