Boobala Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 I'm not a huge fan of the show. I don't care for the host and this "negotiation" silliness, but I would like to see the Hybridz Team show. Apparently the new season of Pinks starts this Wednesday (July 12). Does anybody know if the first episode will be the one featuring the Hybridz Team?

OlderThanMe Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 supposedly the "most intense [on pinks] show ever"... It should be good and I will record it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody 82 ZXT Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Can we get some more details about when it will show and on what channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veritech-z Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Pinks is on speed network, that's 112 on my Brighthouse cable chanels. I think it comes on either at 9 or 10 in the evening, eastern standard time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haukenes Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 i don't know if i get that.. but i'd be very interested in seeing it. If anyone has a TiVO DVR and can make CD's or something, that'd be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 speed channel is the only channel with cars on it 24/7...except for the 3 am RV infomercials... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Workinprogress Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Please, someone tell me they can record this and post it... No digital cable for me, just cheesy basic here. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zguy95135 Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Can someone record it and put it on the net? I cant afford the package the speed channel is on =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2126 Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I tend to agree with Boobala......not my favorite show. The host of the show looks and acts like a meat-head! The thing that bugs me the most is their formate.....they start a race and then cut to a friggin commercial! Lame!!! However, I'm certainly going to watch the wensday night show. As quoted by the meat-head...."Lets race" (with the I'm so seriously cool look on his face). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewievette Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I want to see that episode but between not getting speed and having to work I cant watch it one way or the other. If someone can record and post that would be sweet , if not I'll have to keep an eye out for re-runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some-Guy Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Ohh man iam doubly excited now I like the show just the host is a dumbass................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks280zt Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Wow everyone really comes down on the host, he seems alright, maybe i just dont spend all my time seeing if people are tools are not. Maybe you guys should host the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boobala Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 Wow everyone really comes down on the host, he seems alright, maybe i just dont spend all my time seeing if people are tools are not. Maybe you guys should host the show My problem with the host is... A. He doesn't seem to know that much about drag racing or cars but acts as though he does. B. He puts on a tough guy act that portrays drag racing in the wrong light. Other things I don't care for... 1. They don't use the track x-mas tree and timing system. Why not? 2. The whole "negotionation" thing. Just "run what you brung" or get lost. If you want to run unmatched cars then do it bracket style, complete with making losers of those who bust their dial-in. Really, is it street racing or bracket racing... make up your mind. 3. Where they decide to stick commercials; right at the launch of nearly every race. The can put them before the launch and still get you to watch the commercials. The way it is now is just irritating, and kind'a insulting.

OlderThanMe Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 that is the worst part about the show. Commercials in the wrong place. Someone should put the episode up on youtube or some other site... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody 82 ZXT Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Is the whole show this one race? Or are there several races on it? I've watched about 1/3 of an episode so I don't remember how it all works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twoeightnine Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 First they are going to air "The Making Of PINKS" episode then the Z car episode. They usually have a half hour show, one race. They just drag it out wit the usual commercials.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veritech-z Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Yeah, the whole show is just one race. The reason they don't set it up like a bracket race is that they are trying to simulate a street race situation. They just do it on the track for safety purposes. I read an article with the host, and he said that he's been trying to get somebody to buy a reality show idea from him for years, and this is the first one that's sold. He admitted he doesn't know the first thing about cars in the article. If you think about it, it's genius from a production standpoint: the whole purpose behind reality tv is that it's CHEAP to produce (no sets, no high dollar professional actors, people think nothing of cheap web cam style shots that give the illusion of being candid so you don't even need much equipment relative to a normal tv show) and this show may be the ultimate in cheap gameshows, since the contestants even supply their own prizes. The network really can't lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
