Off topic, seeing the trailer for Sandra Bullock's new movie makes me realize just what a lucky SOB Jesse James is. Ok, back to the thread at hand.

I watched it. I was a huge Monster Garage fan, and when I saw he had another show I was real excited about it. But they stretched the show out WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much. Cut it down to a half hour and I might be interested, but I already deleted the SP.

I watched the police chase episode and it just seemed too fake, like the police were being told what to say. They were acting like he was racing through downtown LA when it was obvious they were filming in what seemed like an abandoned neighborhood. I won't watch another episode.

I'm also a huge fan of Jesse's from his Monster Garage days. I even watched Celebrity Apprentice just cause he was on. I agree that this new show hasn't been too thrilling. Like SeanC said, it should probably be cut down to a half hour.
I liked the nitro bike episode. It was kinda like Mythbusters meets Nitro Circus. I liked the CGI animations showing how the nitro bike worked. The bike exploding was pretty crazy.
The episode last night was pretty boring. There were couple cools parts like when Jesse Drove through the gold course and when that pig ran over the spike strips.
I'm going to keep watching, simply because there isn't anything else new on Sunday nights.

I'd have liked it a lot better if they showed more of the build and more of the technical side of the Nitro bike. They need to throw us old time Monster Garage fans a bone. They did a little of it on the cop build with the nitro bottle, and for me that was the best part of the show. So if they could add a little more of that type of stuff along with the stunt I think I'd like it a whole lot more. I haven't deleted the SP yet, but I hope it gets a little better...

I agree with most of the above. too much filler, not enough content. There isn't anything on TV so I'll watch it.
