The show was OK at best but has reached the point of being unwatchable. The whiny crew and created drama ruin what could have been a decent product. Watching them complain about the build time and supposed blunders got old really fast. If I had a crew that bitched as much as his do I would have fired them years ago and hired some professionals. Fast N' Loud and Misfit Garage are the same. Lame ass shows that had some excellent potential.

Ryan is a god of painting and I'd kill to have him lay color on my dream car. The rest of the staff is nearly as talented. My problem is the more I watch the reruns the more I become convinced Danny is a selfish self-centered jerk who's obsessed with having the most toys. He repeatedly ignores needs of the shop to put his own childish wants ahead of all other things. Shop low on funds? Dozens of jobs backing up because everyone is working on his pet project? Who cares. Go behind Kevin's back and throw $50,000 or more in another car. He's got to have enough where he can already drive a different car every day of the month. Just ONCE I want to see him say "Let's put getting the staff and shop bills paid first." Just once put the livelihood of people who keep you in toys ahead of your own greed, Danny.

The cars just provide the vehicle so to speak to show you the main people that work at Counts Customs; with nearly always 2 cars / bikes per episode plus the Danny's pulling over people to ask about their cars & the shenanigans of Mike & Roli, all packed into just 20+ minutes, there's not much time to show you the build, just the receipt of the car/bike needing the improvement, the haggle on price and the delivery.Whether it's all set up or not, Counting Cars shows Danny's real appreciation of the automobile, if Joe Public when pulled over "randomly" to talk but refuses to sell Danny their car, the excitement Danny shows that he got to talk about "Car X" with them does seem genuine.Throw in the odd celebrity like Cassandra Peterson or Rob Zombie and you've an interesting show. But I'd love to see Elon Musk walk in with a job for them, lol.The only off-putting part is the disdain Danny shows for Mike which is, I hope, really just put on for the show because Mike is an outstanding airbrush artist. Or if Mike is really such a goofball, then fair enough, but he'd still be my go-to guy for anything requiring customized airbrush artwork.Finally, the show does portray Danny as a real pushover when it comes to people who have served in the military or are creating a memorial of some sort; in those instances, he doesn't deliver a car/bike, he delivers a dream. And in those moments, the shows succeeds and brings it into line with something like the UK show, Car SOS.Hope Season 5 gets the go ahead.

Finally they got it right, it is so much more entertaining without the shouting and screaming. Danny is the boss now -and he call all the shots. Thats benefit the garage and the show a lot.Fixing up cars and often do a whole makeover is entertaining to watch, more entertaining than "Overhauling". When there's no clock hanging over the show "to add suspension". In stead of showing us everything they do with the car(s) they skip to the most important thing, the big reveal. Sure there is some flawed things here and there, but hey, its only entertainment -if you want to learn something quintessential - pick up a book or something. Keep it that way and I'll be watching.
