Hyperdrive

Binged this show! Love it, need more, Netflix needs to stop spending budget on Adam Sandler movies and make more like this!

This is brain rottingly good nonsense. Kudos for whoever thought this up. Admittedly the commentators are a little on the agitating side, but a small price to pay for watching some insane cars flying round a crazy course a breakneck speed. Beats watching Formula 1 on a Sunday afternoon for sure, and a hell of a lot more competitive!

This car contest it is very well made , great presentation and congrats to the producers

Some superb drivers mixed with some useless drivers and pay2win cheaters, so I stayed for th quality driving and wasn't disappointed.

What I was disappointed with was the horrible packaging of the show - it's a car show and they use wrong camera angles all the time, slowmo the wrong things, don't show enough driving and have awful commentating. Don't get me wrong I like Bisping buuuut who are the others? Why does it need 3 people to drag out this repetitive competition? Where are the experts/pros?

The new layouts were too alike to begin with that the first 4-5 episodes you question what the point is but do end up pretty decent by the end.

As some other reviews have stated, it did feel a bit biased and scripted but overall I enjoyed and stayed the course for the show for the cars and drivers that put their all in, but it could have been presented and produced SO much better.

As others have pointed out this show has a lot going for it - lighting, original obstacle courses, great cars and genuine semi-professional drivers who give their best and push their cars to the limit.

There are also unexpected twists and mishaps that keep the show interesting to the very end. It didn't feel biased to me - simply the mix of drivers was all over the place with some bordering Ken Block-ish levels of control while others driving like my uncle after 5 rakias (or whiskies).

However - the commentary and dramatization a-la "Deadliest catch" or "Orange county customs" detract a lot of value from this show. This typical American dumbing-down of the content is not really doing them any service.

They could have excelled by showing us more of the technical stuff about the cars, how they were built or some performance analysis instead. And yes they could have definitely chosen their slow-mo shots better as someone else commented before me.

Well worth the watch though and I do hope they read the comments here for Season 2 :)
