Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge

My God what a waste of time and money. If you like shiny objects and pretty colors, this is the show for you.

The idiots who greenlighted this visual and auditory assault on the senses should just stick to their coloring books and stop making TV.

Why not make a Matchbox Cars show. It would be just as dull and boring but it would cost less, just like the Matchbox Cars do.

How about a show about finger painting. You could get some "talent" from the internet that no one knows who they are. A bunch of idiots who are "influencers" and they can host and judge.

Other than that.... It's just a steamer from Cleveland.

This could have been a cool show but I have no idea what they were thinking. They have a car that has an emotional connection to the contestants and proceed to have them completely change it. Why?

As usual with current TV, this is all about optics and nothing else.

Does it go into any kind of detail about the actual work done on the cars? No.

If a problem in the build comes up , they all stand around and everyone on the show has to worry about it. Why?

Having Terry Crews and Hert doesn't make up for the complete lack of substance in this show. If you are into cars in any way, this probably will be too much like cotton candy when you are in the mod for a steak. Honestly, just watch any of the Hoonigan videos with Hert and you'll be much more satisfied.

I played with Hot Wheels back in the 60's as a kid, I still remember the excitement of getting a new car or setting up the track. Fast forward 50+ years and now there is a TV show, and a lousy one at that. From the get go, you can tell that the emotions, the reactions and just about everything else is "staged". Everything is "played up" and over exaggerated. I'm guessing it's for the sake of ratings, but it is almost comical watching and listening to the responses and reactions. This is not a reality show, even the short commercials and previews shown are way over the top. But at the end of the day, would I buy ANY of these so called "Hot Wheels"? HELL NO!!! I'd actually be surprised if NBC let them finish out the season.

Hahahahaha. Are you kidding Me??? What a waste of airtime. This show couldn't be any worse if it tried. If it makes past one season I'd be shocked.

The cars are horrible, the actors are horrible. It's 2023 and you can't come up with anything better than this nonsense?

Id like to know who came up with this monstrosity of a show. Please don't waste your time. Change the channel and find something more productive and or entertaining to watch.

I can't believe I'm evening reviewing it but I hope To save someone an hour of their day. Watcher beware.

Best of luck getting lit for season two. Haha.

I was really looking forward to this, and the previews gave such high expectations. I've watched the first two episodes hoping for some great, amazing cars, but am still waiting. I really wish they could've, would've gotten some true expert car fabricators and could spend a couple weeks in a true fabrication shop, rather than bolting on pre-made pieces and basically unfinished cars. And my biggest gripe is that they never attempt to start the cars and try to drive them. I can guarantee that none of these vehicles could drive a city block without falling into a pile of parts. One vehicle was meant to do a wheelie, but instead of taking out and actually doing one, they jack it up with a hydraulic wheelie machine. I'm still planning to watch if possible to see what poor constructions they put together.
