![]() ![]() Instead of a show about car restoration, what you're actually getting is a 20 product promo for a tool they would like to use for the restoration. A car restoration show with some great looking muscle cars INCLUDING back story about the car's history? Sign me up! Unfortunately, what you end up getting isn't quite as advertised. Either transform this show into something that an adult can watch, or do us all a favor and kill it.Īfter watching an advert for this program I thought it looked great. My advice to Velocity: Stop dummying-down your automotive offerings with with such trash. My advice to Mark Worman: Grow up, drop the inane pre-pubescent behavior and generate some content that does justice to your trade and your expertise. It has to be the worst automotive show on television. Regardless, I don't know how anybody with a mental age beyond 13 can watch such tripe. But it is clear that being a complete jerk comes fairly natural to Worman. It's probable that this behavior is a contrived act, designed to attract attention by virtue of the "drama" it is intended to create on the show. There's an awful lot of potential being wasted by attempting to create some sort of on-air bad-ass persona, frustrated by his bumbling assistants. It's a shame that Mark Worman is disgracing his apparently thorough knowledge of MOPAR vehicles (which I'm not a huge fan of in the first place) by behaving like a three year old on this show. The show does have some amazing cars on it, just not worth dealing with the other stuff to get to them. These examples don't come off as a guy being funny or charming, it comes off like you're a jerk. ![]() Also, the running joke throughout was that he couldn't remember the cameraman's name, so he was calling him by a different name all the time. One of the episodes I saw, he was leaving a used car dealership and made sure to comment on how a couple people immediately recognized him and how he can't go anywhere these days. I also find Mark to be completely unwatchable. They just need cool and interesting cars. Discovery needs to understand that fans of cars don't need that stuff to watch a show. The fake drama found in so many other mainstream "reality" shows is found in this one too, but it just doesn't belong. To a car guy, it's a dream! Just watched my first couple of Graveyard Carz and have no intentions of ever seeing it again. In the 8 years the show has been running, it has restored a huge fleet of classic cars from the 60s and 70s and driven the cast members to lead wealthy lives.Somewhat recently discovered the Velocity channel and have been hooked ever since. Their partnership with Motortrend (then known as Velocity) has seen Graveyard Carz maintain a continuous streak of shooting, which happens in parallel with the show edits. While this would ordinarily spell doom for most shows, Graveyard Carz stuck it through and their momentum shows no signs of slowing down. Cast members have been walking in and out of set, with a segment of the original cast having permanently stepped out of the show. The show has not gone without a hitch, however. The talented cast has long since established a cult following given their ability to have a car brought to them on its deathbed, and have it roll out of the shop in pristine shape a few weeks later. For the last 8 years, this crew has been showcasing the art of restoring Mopar automobiles to a rightfully spellbound TV audience. Reality TV would not be the same without Graveyard Carz. ![]()
