Total métal

It is very fun watching the metal artist make stuff in very creative ways.

It sucks to watch the two judges walk around constantly belittling creative people.

The show is fun. The art is awesome. The co hosts are great. But the main host knows next to nothing about metal working and could not be more annoying to watch. They really should have gotten a host that has some sort of knowledge or at least interest in metal working.

The contestants were good (some exceptions but those were still ok) however the challenges are stupid (rules unclear, ideas like you gotta have a horseshoe on there) and the judges clearly have almost no or no experience as welders or anything related.

Idk who signed off on those judges but whoever did apparently wasnt aware that most people watching this watch it because they have a hobby or job in this field and therefore know their stuff.

Get ones that have experience in metalworking and optionally acting/hosting not the other way around... u know like mythbusters ...just as hosts ...and let them geek out a bit.... go into details... play to your audience

maybe give failed mythbuster allen pan a call.

Just please if ur gonna have a second season change the judges.

I understand like forged in fire and every other show like this you need one judge who knows nothing about the trade. With Jo Koy it's just painful to listen to him. He tries to make jokes that fall flat and overall brings nothing to the show. Put all this on top of the tattoo masters show is just not original nor enjoyable to watch.

I want to love this show. I like the glassblowing and blacksmith shows, so welding is right up my alley. But just in the first episode, I have a lot of issues with it.

The first challenge should have followed the same formula as Forged In Fire: the first challenge should be an equal playing field. Give them the same equipment, the same starting materials, same equipment, and requirements that are actually clear. Letting people do their own work with their own material at their own workshops is not a fair first challenge. Once the competitors show they have the creativity and the fitness to continue on, then give them the freedom to be creative. In the second round, again, sculptures were judged unfairly because the requirements weren't clear.

I'll have to watch more episodes to make a final judgment, but for now, though I love the concept, I'm frustrated with the execution. There are a lot of improvements to be made.
