Salvage Kings - Demolieren und kassieren

Idk why I guess I'm weird like that LOL. I loved it ! I'm gonna start watching season 1 now. I know it sounds dumb like bruh what ? But i don't care don't tell me how to live my life. Either way. I like this show a lot! Didn't even know what they did was a job but damn. It seems like a pretty cool job to me !

Let's start by saying that this is not the kind of show I'd be interested in. I hate reality shows lol. They are a blight on humanity and truly evidence of an intellectual decline.

Now, for a complete reversal on what I just said. It's a Canadian show which adds to the value of it.

I began to watch it in 2024 and have been hooked on it ever since. Ted is the ultimate host/ presenter. He's funny, an advocate of maintaining the history and preservation of "things" and very informative .

The sites that we are taken to are very interesting. They are extremely varied. He has an equally interesting casts of people that work with him.

It appears that there will be no more shows which to me is very saddening.

Brandon and the new chick in season 2 was a terrible move. They were staged and couldn't act, Did not feel genuine. Brandon was terrible and kind of ruined season 2 for me.

For a reality show, season one was a 10. The characters seemed authentic, the work interesting. By season two the salvage component of the business has moved to an all new site. It seems like a lot of character was lost, both in location and in the addition of the new show members, Maya and Brandon. They seem like they were forced upon the business by the show producers. They are either really bad actors or are trying too hard. Meanwhile we lost Priestly family members Julien and his grandpa Vic, it appears they didn't want to return, which is sad, they seemed real and interesting to me.

LIke a lot of these show, many of the shots and scenes seem over produced and set up. Why'd they have to wreck a perfectly good show? I hated to see season one end, but by season two I didn't even want to continue watching after a few episodes and gave up. It would nice to see it back for a third season, but with a return to the style of season one.

I enjoyed watching season 1 and would give it a solid 6.

In season 2 they added two newcomers who both seemed kind of fake to me and IMO messed up the team dynamics.

I gave them a chance but soon found myself skipping most of their scenes. After 3 episodes I dropped the show. It seems the producers wanted to appeal to younger, trendier audiences and that is not my cup of tea. Maybe that's also why the crew started to do fist bumps instead of shaking hands? In any case it's annoying, too.

In case there's a third season without Brandon and Maya I'd be willing to check it out.
