Resurrected Rides

Used to watch Pimp my ride back in the day, so this show does have the same vibe and feel of the original show. But with the new team of expert resuactors, that not only keep you entertained, but also know how to bring back old cars to life. As you watch the show you get to meet the team members better and what expertise they bring to the table. Chris Redd, does a good job in bringing his style of comic relief to the show, as well as his fun and goofy self to entertain audiences.the writing and production of the show is well done. Every episode is a masterpiece, you get to see from start to finish how a car is resurrected.

I think this show is great considering the amount of time they do have for eps. I can see a lot of reviews (almost every) over the internet are from a specific gender, specific demographic & it shows why this show has such bad ratings considering the incredibly short sited comments that those reviewers have made i.e. Someone can't be pretty AND have trade jobs AND is apparently are an issue because their segment is short; those same reviewers have compared the show to Pimp my Ride, talking up that show SO HEAVILY in a variety of ways while ripping down this one which is funny because that show does have it's own flaws too, even tho it is also a great show and ripping down 1 thing because you can't handle the fact that more than 1 great thing in a genre can exist is rude. You need to NOT watch, use, consume, etc and avoid reviewing the new thing if you are determined to dislike/hate because of unavoidable reasoning (timing and worker cannot change that too). I didn't give it a better rating because they introduce Lacey every ep, bring her in for stuff but then don't show much about the engine work, if they extended the episodes by 5 minutes then they might be able to fit more specifics for it but also it would give bad people the fuel to make worse comments so i see why it may have been made this way. I'm not a mechanic but i do have some training for this stuff & a bit of knowledge from being super curious, also great at figuring things out with context and the show seems great to me besides what i said earlier, some other things are cut short depending on the episode because of the works that are focused on for that episode but so far it works and the jobs seem well done.

I see hate about silly stuff they do to the cars. However if you did like pimp my ride like I did at 10 years old. You know it was never about the overall restoration of the car but to make it unique. It's cool I just wished they do it with more poverty stricken people or places. I noticed have cars are old but no rust n decent shape, I got a driveway full of worse cars and these people mostly look to live in nice neighborhoods and houses. But nonetheless it's a decent show really entertaining. I've always loved Chris Redds stand up so that helps having him as host . But again it's not like Roadkill or other legit car shows out but still worth the watch people that hate knew what it was b4 they watched so no need to hate on it these shows have a preview for a reason.

The show was better than pimp my ride. It's clear predecessor. I love the backstories and how most of the time there's not too outlandish mods. Thank god for the not putting TVs behind every headrest. It reales this more into reality and wasn't 100% for the show and the contestants could actually get use out of it. The mods mostly made sense and were tasteful. The cast and crew were perfect. I would have given it ten stars if they would just do a little bit. A tiny bit of dam engine work. I know it's not appealing to masses but show a couple maintenance bits and an injector upgrade. Intake. Something. I will say now watching the final episode. They touch the engine .. okay.

I feel that many are unfairly judging this series, it's not a 10/10 Emmy winning show, but it's not supposed to be.

It is very much 'Pimp my Ride', but comparing it directly is unfair. Firstly, many(like myself) are guilty of remembering PMR through rose tinted glasses.

Secondly a lot are being negative against Chris Redd and likely comparing him to Xzibit who, let's be honest, was the only decent person involved with PMR when the real stories came out, so he has biggest shoes to fill and deserves a little time to master the role.

Thirdly, you can't hammer the people who work on the cars too much, they are not used to being in front of the camera and need time to get used to it.

It's a light hearted show and enjoyable show to watch, I'm sure those involved will improve as it continues and deserves a chance. Hopefully, unlike PMR, we don't hear about horrible attitudes and bad goings on behind the camera.
