I went to PARF once. OMG, death threats, they be hatin' on me!!!


People expressed their displeasure of the changes to the show, and someone took that critisism and blew it waaaaay out of proportion.
I don't buy it. It's just interwebs talk. For all I know the producers created the BS to hype their scam.



Mike likes to make things about personal stuff and people and hugs. Why does he gotta be all hugging all the time to people he doesn't even know?
He started his touchy crap in the car once with Ant and Ant wanted no part of that dumbness.
We're going to have to start calling him "Creepy mike"

Reminds me of when he went to pelican and introduced his long lost bestest buddy called Wayne, who he probably met an hour earlier for 5 minutes.

That's fine for him, but I'm not interested in any of that. Girls might like it, and foofoo men, but not me.
It's nothing personal but I like the nuts and bolts details of wrenching on cars, like we get to a limited extent from Edd and Anthony. That's why I haven't missed an episode of wheeler dealers. It ain't for the "relationships".

I don't know if it was Mike or the producer, or both that decided to take the show in a different direction. I heard it was the show's producer.
I believe he exercised poor judgement and made the show less likeable and entertaining from my point of view.

I'm surprised he didn't try to go all PC by having ugly tat girls pulling wrenches.
Anthony does just as good as Edd, given what he has to work with.
So it's no wonder I like Anthony's new show but don't care for mike's show.

But we aint nobody hatin or throwin' death threats.

I quit watching when Edd left. Not angry, just liked Edd.

So last night I found the 996 IMS bearing replacement episode with Ant since folks like him.

I was pleased with his presentation of the job. Upbeat, knowledgeable and funny guy.

I like how they give him a little license to roll his eyes at Mike.

Mike is Mike. I think he has to be there. Like Skyler in Breaking Bad. Necessary.
