              All you guys that are knocking or " telling it like it is" please let me know  what time and channel your show is on so I can watch you, and you can show us how it's done!
         
             Until then it's trashing in my book!
Opinions will vary vastly.... that's yours  :Twocents:

I can say I have read all of this and been a large part of it.. There is no trash talking going on here. There are many who believe as I do that the show is very worthy of air time. It is all mopar, so it SHOULD interest ALL OF US. I personally had HD installed here just to be able to watch this show. I have watched many episodes that I VCR'd and was happy to be able to FFWD through the ridiculous name calling and fighting.. I understand that some LIKE that. Well, OCC and many other shows are FULL of that. Why do we need another specialized show to be the same? We all have enough trouble in our daily lives.  Would it interest you guys to watch me have trouble walking around a store?? How about picking up my keys when I drop them?? HELL NO.. Why would you want to watch me dealing with my problems??? I could set up a camera for those who want to watch me struggle to get out of bed sometimes!!

No. I watched this because people I know like the show. It is ALL MOPAR. It is about restoring OLD MOPARS, or so I was lead to believe...

I am not talking trash at all. I am expressing my opinion about something that I care about. I firmly believe that is what the rest of us are doing as well.

C-Stripes, thank you for pulling up those last quotes from Mark. If he is being honest about what he said we may just see a change in the show and really see what I was told the intent of the show was..

In my opinion we expected too much from this show. It has been on what, two or three seasons now? It is not a "how to restore a Mopar" show. It is a show about people who restore Mopars. It is about the people, not the cars. Once we get that through our thick skulls, mine included, we can get on with it.

Power Block is a series of shows on "how to rebuild a vehicle", Chop Cut Rebuild, Two Guys, All Girls Garage, Car Fix, Truck U, etc. are all shows about how to do things to vehicles. Hands on shows about the mechanics of car rebuilding. Graveyard Cars is not. It is a another OCC type show. I hope Mark is successful in his endeavor at producing a TV show, I really do, but the Mopars are just the props, the show is about the characters. Took me a while to get that through my thick head. But now I understand.

I'll be quite honest, I haven't watched it but I'm going to look it up and watch a episode this morning.    I will say characters are important in any show.   It keeps a show from giving you that boring class room feeling.   Finding the right balance is key.      
To much and it becomes honey boo boo trash.  To little and it's like watching grass grow.    It needs to be entertaining as well as educational to keep you from falling asleep if it's a car you aren't really interested in.

The show just needs to mimic overhaul . Hell they show everything from beginning to end.  If you have to have drama, then The "Drama" should come from the customers, not the employees.  :Twocents:

We are only expressing our opinions Stu.  Just as we do on most things we care about. None of us are trying to hurt anyone's feelings. We are expressing our opinions in hopes that with enough votes it might become the cars show we had all hoped.   If everyone it's great when they don't think so and won't watch it, the show will be cut. If it has more watchers than the next show, THAT SHOW will be the one getting cut... So why not tell Mark the truth and maybe it becomes one of the greats??

Mark may restore Mopars, the rest of 'weekend' team are barely able to screw on 2-3 parts per episode that the weekday team has prepped/painted/refinished for them.  It's pathetic at times.  I'd much rather see the weekday team in action.

Mark seems to be a great guy... He is also doing something that he has passion about - I commend that!  I wish Mark would come back to the site because this site is about knowledge.  If Mark didn't have the spotlight of the show, he would probably be on this site gaining more knowledge and utilizing it. 

I'm personally 50/50 about the show, but will watch each episode.  Mark even said, he needed feedback for the next season, and he was going to make it more about cars, less about drama crap.   :2thumbs:   

If he was an average Joe on here posting pictures, everyone would be helping and guiding, but since he has the show, it's negative criticism.  Mark can't make everyone happy with the show, it's impossible.  The show is what it is, and getting better. :2thumbs:

Here is a cool ass video he put together due to his love of Mopars - LOVE IT!

I agree; perhaps he could could learn a thing or two here & display that knowledge on the show.   :smilielol:

Agree!  I'm sure he's learning something new everyday - as most of us are.

BIG NEWS! Mr. Bill Goldberg has selected Graveyard Carz to finish the assembly and detail of his 1968 GTX Convertible. This is the first Mopar Bill ever bought and he's trusting us with his baby. I have decided that I will let Daren aka Chips be responsible for his car. Let's see him chip this one:)
