Just saw a teaser that Billy Gibbons is hosting a new Discovery TV show, Rockin' Roadsters, first one tonight at 9pm and 11pm Central - Billy Gibbons' 'Rockin' Roadsters' latest project for ZZ Top legend | Fox News I'll record it for later, just in case it's not a total waste of time.....:LOL:
Gee, I might actually stay up to catch it..
And within the first 30 minutes they've put a 3 week deadline on their very first build!
Well.. I guess I 've watch that show exactly twice, the first and last just today...
Oh, and it was boring waiting for shopping carts!
That whole show was so contrived it was laughable.
Whatever happened to the build shows that were entertaining and you actually learned something? Coddington's show was great in the beginning, but.....I'm a contractor by trade so I enjoy watching home shows once in a while, but they show how to build something and it skips to the end before you get to see how they accomplished that!...WTH? :eek::)
It's gotta be the producers, trying to put together shock value that they believe is entertainment. I would be nice to have a new show like the old original New Yankee Workshop with Norm Abrams, where he came on, defined a project, gave some history and then designed and built the project over a month or so.
well that was 15 min of my life i'll never get back.
Sorry, Shine. It seemed like it might have possibilities.... Glad I DVR'd it and didn't wait for it to come on.Quote:

I was watching Kansas vs Texas basketball and switched over around the half way mark. They were starting to cut up the shopping carts which almost lost me and then Billy came on with some painter gal and went out looking at some flowering tree for paint color which was rather amusing. Right after that Jimmy Shine announced that they had three weeks to finish the project and I went back to the basketball game. Sort of a combination of Monster Garage and Coddington and that was enough for me.
you give me a deadline for your car i'll tell you to bring a trailer .
Newton Minow is proven correct yet again.........sigh!
The youngsters that post here will have to google that one, Bob.Quote:
