ImUrOBGYN Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 New show on Discovery. 1st episode was on last night. I haven't had a chance to watch it, yet. "It's all about the drive to survive. What happens when you 'MacGyver-ize' a car? In One Car Too Far former British Special Forces operative and an American car junkie are dropped into incredible landscapes and forced to work together to survive and ultimately escape to safety. The twist, they will have to take a small red car with them. It's the perfect combination as one knows how to drive and the other knows how to survive. With no proper roads and no real supplies, the two must rely on instinct and expertise alone to make it out. From the treacherous slopes and near-freezing temperatures of a mountain top, to the wet, dense vegetation of the rainforest, they use whatever supplies they can find to turn a regular car into an all-purpose vehicle to get them over, under and through just about any obstacle in their way." http://dsc.discovery.com/tv-shows/one-car-too-far/videos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murse Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 It was ok. Before the first commercial you could tell it was primarily sponsored by jeep. To me it seemed scripted. The route they went, some of the things they said, it just felt too over acted. But it was still pretty interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got-Boost? Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Isn't that WU guy the same guy from "BULLRUN" that drove Team Lambo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murse Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 After some searching online, yeah it's the same guy. I guess he used to be a physician as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaewsky1 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Got bored with it after 10 minutes. Hopefully other episodes will get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twistedfocus1647545489 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Yeah, alot of overacting in my opinion. I liked that they used a mildly modded older Jeep rather than a brand new one. I hope it improves. My biggest gripe with the premise: Jeep Wrangler is not a car. New show name: One Jeep Too Deep.

Dharris89 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 I fell asleep to it last night so it didn't hold my interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted August 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Ah well, that's too bad. I'll still have to check it out for myself, but it sounds like the bad things I thought it could be rather than the good things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
