Drive Hard: The Maloof Way

I really wanted to like this but I just couldn't. Honestly it's just boring. The family seems nice and after seeing Maloof and the daughter on Fastest Car I was really interested to see this. I was hoping it would show them building some cool cars and more importantly seeing how the stunts are planned, practiced and carried out. Car build shows are a dime a dozen so that aspect interested me less than the stunts. The problem is it's all so scripted and with no meat to any of the segments that it's completely unwatchable. They only show you some graphics about how they fixed up these cars, with no real context. Most people don't realize that a $5000 build on a race car won't get you far, but they never explain that so it just looks like they added an air filter and some tires...boring. The stunts are 15 seconds of this is what we are going to do, then 30 seconds for the shot you saw in the movie, then the daughters patting themselves on the back. The format is crap, the script is boring, and there are about 200 better car shows out there. Skip it.

You can't help but to love this family. They're funny, talented and fast. And they definitely know how to drive!! You may be used to the other "car" shows that has a, beep, beep, beep, every other word but not these guys. They keep it clean. Love it!!

It's nice to see Netflix finally adding more car related content that is clean especially. The only trans your seeing here is one in the car! Watch it!

Ignore the other useless comments, their just used to typical trash on other channels that are staged This family seems like genuinely good people that play fair and don't talk trash and that's a real winner any day.

Yeah I have seen just about ever car show. But I liked the way this is slightly different in its components. Works for me and the Mrs as we loved Gotham cars gig and the Rust valley restorers. So naturally we wanted to try it out. It's just a bit of fun and not as good as some other shows, but nevertheless entertained us well.

Whilst it might not delve into too much technicality it is still educational in its own way. But I can recommend that you do at least try it out and see what you think of the format as you might dig it.

Plus it helped me to learn more about the US side of drag racing and the elements required to be involved in the area.

Watched one episode, kids who you don't really see doing anything meaningful to the cars they're working on. Pretty vague mechanical explanations. Over scripted racing scenes (couldn't be bothered finishing the episode to watch some stunt thing) Unless I'm pretty desperate to watch something it'll be my one and only episode. You'd be better of watching other motor shows with a bit more depth. Now I have to keep writing stuff until I get to 600 characters. Nice weather we've been having lately. My tomatoes have been cracking this year but my peppers not so much they're getting eaten by something not sure what.

Car Masters, now this..

Over-edited, over-scripted, and cheesy all around. What's the point of including several drone shots of a 50 km/h race? Everything is so slow and predictable...

The show follows Sammy Maloof (father and "leader" of the family) the most. You can take what he says in the trailer and that's pretty much what he will have to say for the entire season. Then Netflix decides to edit every sentence to have control on meaning and rythme. It makes it so unnatural, you wonder what's true and what isn't.

It feels like those cheap movies with trending actors. Why is Netflix producing all these "fast-food" shows?
