I gave up on the other shows a long time ago. Almost all of them are guys
dressed in outlandish garb with tattoos, hairdos, beards, swearing to their
help that they are not working hard enough to complete a job with outlandish
timelines. The shows are more about them than in the cars. One exception is the
girls who have a repair show and they actually show techniques. My other pet
peeve is the series Mighty Ships/Mighty Planes and the ilk which skips showing
the ships and planes and how they are constructed but zero in on contrived
?problems?. If, for example, they show a B-52 I would rather see the
construction process than ?Joe Blow? and his problems in getting a gauge or
something to work taking 20 minutes to do it.

Double dammit! And the reasons behind his departure stink. The show is too
difficult to produce? Amazing how they've managed to do it and do it well all
these years. I like that Edd tackles problems that most of us have to deal
with. My favorite was putting a new chassis under the Morgan.
