Chris Jacobs is annoying and acts like it is his show. Chip Foose is a genius and very humble. Would like to see more of Chip and the work being done by the team, with less drama and pranks. Chris is tolerable doing voice over, but is annoying sucking up to Foose.
Love car shows but the silly antics surrounding the thieving of the victims cars is bile inducing,not only that how many times does it need to be repeated to pad out the show.The builds are nice but many of them end up being chips ego stroking vanity projects with him taking liberties I'm damn sure the owners don't want & end up being overdone.
I used to watch it every day. I was watching with love :)
I've always wanted to have a car like this. I used to watch it with Turkish or Russian dubbing, but I don't remember.
I have watched episodes of this show and have found it less than apoealing. If someone has a classic car or truck and it is "kidnapped" by some supposedly caring members and restored of modified by Foose and his team, I would definitely be passed off. First if there was sentimental value, it is all destroyed by restoring or modifying it. When I see the completed butchering job my first reply would be to Foose would be to put it back together the way it was given to him, so go find the parts you removed. I would ask who gave you permission to do the work when he is not the registered owner of the vehicle. I'd have him arrested for theft and destruction of private property. The car is dead to me now. I have no use for it and I will make sure no-one else does. If he can't return it to the condition before he stole it. I'd take it somewhere and out several rounds of 357 Mag ammo into it. I'd contact my lawyers and have his business and all his employees charged and fired. My family? Well let's just say that we wouldn't be on speaking terms. My trust has been betrayed, my privacy invaded as I am a very private person and just don't like surprises. Does this sound a little over the edge. I'm sure there would be others who would feel similar but not as extreme. I do not like my property to be messed with it people interfering in my affairs. If I wanted it fixed or modified I would have it done myself. If I couldn't afford it then that's ok also. I'd you it over a period of time so that it would be my ideas and not someone else.
Foose's show exhibits every dumb trick that makes these shows so irritating--faked up scenarios involving "theft", "accidentally towed" vehicles, hyper presenters who are constantly jazzed over every development, major "issues" with the modifications that cause lots of fake consternation and make every job a battle with the clock.
But such is the nature of all these reality shows that seek to create conflict and make the various characters zany and eccentric, which is what passes for compelling TV these days. Add in a zingy rock beat over every scene and bump and you have the makings of a truly irritating program.
Foose does good work, but all the contrivances detract from, rather than add to the finished product.
