Ive binge watched the show and enjoy it overall but the constant complaining by the workers is intolerable. Every episode I find myself saying just stfu and do your job. The show could have been infinitely better without the whining and fake drama. I agree with other commenters that the work is straight hack. The most accurate comment was building junk with junk. Also the show would have been much better without grumpy Tim. And not sure why they allowed the blatant harassment of any woman who walked into the office. I have no problem with most of the other characters other than Dave Jensen. A talented but endlessly annoying super douche.

I wouldn't let these guys touch my riding lawn mower. Created drama and hack work. Don't bother with watching as it isn't even entertaining.

I enjoy this show, they definitely try some off the wall projects, but they always seem to get it done. They're not afraid to apply a little Redneck Engineering and they don't pretend to be genuis all knowledgeable super mechanics who know everything. Not all their fixes I would use, but at least they're not spending a fortune to get the job done, remember they work in a junkyard. Most shows seem authentic, not much seems to be staged for a bunch of fake drama. Cast dynamics seem legit, it's what you'd expect from a bunch of people working at a junkyard. Overall they tend to joke around and laugh at each other, a place I would enjoy working.

Andy is a arrogant greedy, unkowlagable owner that treats people and staff terrible. I understand everyone is in the business for profit but he's beyond that level of greed that will eventually put him under. His taste is absolutely terrible always chrome wrapping every car he bandaids together for a crazy profit. Most cars he returns to the road are not safe nor should be sold as such. He brings the whole show down and is the reason I have chosen to avoid watching in the future. Can't watch a show that should be considered the ultimate scammers.

I wouldnt let these guys touch my bicycle. horrible habits. backyard knowledge isnt even complete. make every mistake under the sun. terrible ripoff off the genre. nothing original and the cast is lame. desperate imitation. the bearded guy wearing the blond wig in s4 ep11 is a tool.wig bit is really lame.notice these unqualified children left the fluid in the transmission for the monte carlo and poured it all over the floor installing the motor.by their comments none of them has real experience installing motors.amazed when buddy finally came up with the lift the car idea. head guy working with new rotors was not wearing gloves and coated them with grease.i can find mistakes everytime. watching the bodyman trying to beat a panel into place only to find the top is incorrect after beating it with a big hammer. forcing it.wooooow.none of these guys would be welcome to work in a shop i own.how is a show this stupid in its furth season.

Cheapness is imbedded into every aspect of this show, from the repairs to the hair dye of the owner. What they are documenting is so bad, I really wonder how they have a show...

I would NEVER buy a car from these bozos. Using junk to build junk.

I'm shocked that Andy Cohen can actually sell the junk he "restores". After watching these bozos working on cars I wouldn't take one of their cars even if they paid me.

Why are they so utterly unlikable it makes it extremely difficult to watch. Then there's most of the jobs, they're quite shoddy, one of the worst was the truck with the camper on the back. They installed a ladder as it was quite high but the ladder was just bodgied on and would crack your skull open as it collapsed on you after opening the door.

This show is cringeworthy. Andy Cohen seems a tad bit too self absorbed, and needs to realize that he's only running a junkyard. He's not curing major diseases, nor is he dramatically benefitting mankind as his attitude indicates. The fact that he calls his dad by his first name, instead of dad, says a lot. He says it's because he wants to keep it business like, but when 100% of your staff knows he's your dad, just call him dad. I couldn't imagine what its like working for him. I'm 1000% positive he pulls that whole "Do you know who I am?" stuff in public when he doesn't get his way, or gets told no.

So I'm watching some reruns of Junkyard Empire and one of the guys on season3 episode 11,doesn't even know the difference in a Front end loader and a Bulldozer? That guy keeps calling the case621 FEL a Bulldozer, REALLY?! If you don't know the difference, you shouldn't be working in a junkyard garage! My wife even knows the difference!!! 🤣 Also when you're trying to get pins out of the bucket, to get it off of the loader, you need to let the pressure off! And things would have went alot smoother. So hopefully when I watch more episodes, there won't be anymore dumb things happen, but I won't hold my breath on that, I'm sure there's more entertaining episodes to come!!
