Neither of these productions embodied the over-the-road romance espoused by Jerry Garcia & them Grateful Deads in "Truckin' " - 1 of my favorite Deads tunes - or Jack Kerouac 60 years ago, though he wasn't doing no trucking, but their flawed setups aside, they do provide nice See The USA visuals for us Open Road lovers to enjoy, hence my halfway-mark rating. Then, as if all this wasn't bad enough (plus hintings about Ice Road Truckers, which really will be horrible), comes the sad information, like feisty old dude Roy in Shipping Wars, that last year one of these guys bit the dust untimely. So until either "H" shows the episodes detailed by the other reviewers or I get the DVD versions, I won't see how bad their thinness is that's had audiences raving - in the wrong way. What annoyed me about this caper were their version of what I call "beauty shots" - which might be the giveaway - such as, re: Shipping Wars, views of a rig blowing down the highway taken from the shoulder or of the "hunters" coming into some place or another how do the camerapeople somehow manage to get to X destination(s) BEFORE them to film their arrival? That it's nothing new - the various house "flip" shows employ this dumb device all the time showing the buyers coming into their freshly bought shacks from the INSIDE - doesn't make it any less aggravating. I'd forgotten about the old ex-Court TV show Operacion Repo, which was so nicely done that only 2 scenes stuck out as nakedly fake (as well as Lizard Lick Towing, which being set closer to my neck of the US woods was an even bigger letdown).

I never did get to ride with Clarence when I was old enough as he had promised, since declining health forced him off the roads before that, but my interest has never waned. I hadn't seen this show before today (Flag Day 2018), but with the "H" Channel running a wee marathon, I decided to give it look. In Big Rig Bounty Hunters, HISTORY tracks five groups of colorful characters along a perilous competition to retrieve the missing loads while facing a. History Channel should be ashamed of itself. ![]() Why didn't they just say, "Whatya going' to do? call the police?" That seemed the sensible solution. afraid, they get back into their truck and leave. the irate owner, already a thief/felon, comes after them with a bat, claiming trespassing. Are the producers just "having fun" with the viewers? Two 70-year-old hipster bikers with no teeth and long hair "rescue" an abandoned big rig?! Give me a break! A pick-up hauling a trailer of six steers to a rodeo, "breaks down" conveniently right over railroad tracks, and the driver never notifies the railroad - despite the presence of a RR phone prominently displayed right next to the tracks? Two guys sent to "rescue" a stolen monster truck hidden in woods. ![]() And on a network that calls itself "The History Channel?" The scenes are so obviously set-up, no person in his right mind would think otherwise. This is the most contrived, unbelievable, staged show I've ever seen.
