Tornado Chasers

To me this is raw and real thing about tornado chasers. It shows real life, struggle and sometimes missed opportunities. This is how a reality show should be like. There is no false leading scenes, faked drama, it's all real. And if you watched "Behind the scenes", you'll get into it more and understand the concept. What this team do is amazing and a multitasking hell! So much effort, time and money invested into something that can entertain but also help the warning system improvement. The quality of the episodes is outstanding, the sound also. And there is this whole production team, even music composers that are contributing to the whole project. It not only gets you into the chasing, it gets you into the whole project which sometimes seems less organized but it works.

My family and I love watching Tornado Chasers together. The energy of Reed and his team make the show a lot of fun to watch, even if there isn't necessarily a tornado in the scene. I was also impressed with how well they handled some of the more serious moments in the 2013 season. You get a good insight into the highs and lows of storm chasing. As an added bonus, there is even some educational content sprinkled within the episodes. As a person who lives in the Midwest where there is often tornado potential, it was good to learn more about storms, how they form, etc.

We enjoyed the 2013 season so much, that we ordered the 2012 season to watch as well. Both were good, but the 2013 is the better of the two.It's great to have a show that a mom, dad, and our 11-year old son can all enjoy together!

Previous reviews yielded that "It was not like Discovery show" simple translation meaning this show is unscripted and dives into the real story of chasing. The series does a fantastic job on immersion into the storm chaser role. Whether it be finding the perfect long track tornado or coming up with nothing this show powers through ups and down. Another factor that makes this show is the cast, the devotion and passion shown towards their goal of improved science and research is unmatched. What this small production has done is excellent and produces two very solid seasons. If you are looking for a more "behind the scenes" look on chasing aka:Real this is it. Not everything is identical to what you see watching Twister.

Great Show 10/10 Serious,Comedic and, Genius

Ride along with Reed Timmer and the rest of the TVN Weather crew as they film tornadoes up close and personal. This series is web only but if you liked Storm Chasers you will LOVE Tornado Chasers.

Meteorologist Reed Timmer and his crew report for 4WARN Storm Team at KFOR in Oklahoma City. You will be able to ride along with them in the "Dominators" (specially modified vehicles that allow them to enter inside of a tornado) as they travel up and down tornado alley filming all the wrath mother nature has to offer.

Throughout this season you will see another familiar face. Jim Cantore from The Weather Channel rides along with the crew for his first actual storm chase. It is quite amusing to watch Reed and Jim get so excited. It is like watching two kids on Christmas morning.

This series not only shows you severe weather but you get a glimpse of the lives of those involved from the chasers to those whose lives are forever changed by the storms.

Being a storm spotter for the National Weather Service I can relate to a lot of what I see on this show but they take it to the next level. There are no other shows like this and it is refreshing to see something different. I enjoyed this show so much I watched all the episodes in less than 24 hours. I HIGHLY recommend this for weather enthusiasts, reality TV junkies (who are tired of scripts), and for anyone who enjoys a good Adrenalin rush. This show is family friendly, educational, and all around a very well done production filmed live during actual weather events. I plan on using it with my sons who are in home school.

Ever since Discovery Channel dropped Reed Timmer and his Dominators, TV has been lacking the one reality type show that is different from the rest. This show isn't just about tornadoes, but about the real people behind the chases. It's pretty difficult to have a show about just tornadoes without a group of professionals getting the shots people want to see. This show brings to us the life of these people outside of the vehicles.

I think it would be unwise to not give this show a whole season's worth of viewing before deciding for yourself. I think it opens a whole wide window into the life of people who risk it all to inform us of what could be in our backyard.
