So difficult to rate this show. Earlier shows in the UK were fantastic. Educational, interesting and fun. Restorations by Ed that seemed achievable by anyone with some skill with the tools. Brewer's involvement primarily just doing the used car salesman bit. That's as much of him that is necessary.
The move to the US seemed to phase in a bit of unnecessary 'entertainment', with Brewer more involved in forced situations. This transitioned completely with the introduction of Ant. Restorations became very complex and to the level of the most skilled mechanic. Still, not terrible despite this. What made it rubbish was the embarrassing skits with Brewer, who is neither a good actor and came off more as a prat. And the play off against with Ant was cringy. This added nothing to the show other then a part you want to fast forward through. Show went from a solid 9 to a 3.
