SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

bgreenspatch This type of reality show with lots of drama seemed right up our alley so we set the dvr and recorded a couple of episodes. Last night we sat down and watched both episodes. It doesn't take long to realize that the head actor Adam Carolla is an extremely unpleasant person. He used the "M" word twice in one episode, once referring to himself and the other time referring to the contractor. Now I am not bothered by this except when he said it both times were extremely distasteful. The worst part of this show is Adam's method of humor. He likes to demean people and he thinks it is funny. Specifically he likes to point out what he sees as physical, or mental flaws in others and make fun of them for it. The co-host's were there to be pretty and that was it. Overall Adam takes a show that could be good and makes it painful to watch.

weatherluvr1212 This really isn't what I was expecting. I was expecting something along the lines of "To Catch a Predator" or "To Catch a Con Man". But, there was no investigation whatsoever with the suspect contractors. The hosts didn't do any sort of investigating. If they add some investigation procedures (i.e. paperwork, pictures, etc.) this show could be a little more interesting. This show is good for current contractors or anyone that is interested in any sort of construction/contracting. They really explain the details about plans and why they were bad or screwed up and the hosts, which are retired contractors explain what happened if the contractor really messed up the job.

AF A The show, called "Catch a Contractor" on Spike TV looked interesting so I have watched three episodes so far to get a feel of what the show is like. The show features two guys trying to catch bad contractors who are screwing families over. The families they find have usually given bad contractors money up front to do remodeling jobs and then these bad contractors run off with the money without finishing their jobs. The concept of the show is really good, because who doesn't like to see a bad guy get "busted"? However, I find that the show is a tad "cheesy". The main guy, Adam Carolla, is obnoxious and loud. If it weren't for him, I would like the show much more. His friend, Skip, seems like a solid, down to earth guy, which I like for a show of this type. I'm still on the fence about Skip's wife. She seems like she is doing a good job, however, it almost seems as if she is really on the show just for a "pretty factor". I understand this show is on SPIKE TV, so maybe I should just accept the cheesy and fluffy thing if I plan on watching it. This is not HGTV. If I had a choice of hosts for this show it would be someone with a personality more along the lines with Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs. Adam Carolla goes over the top with sensationalism and episodes feel like a witch hunt with 20 people (camera & staging crew included) ganging up on one guy. I felt like this show was family friendly up until an episode I watched last night (3/16/2014). At the end of last night's episode Adam Carolla threw in the "M" word - about himself - which shocked me and made my stomach turn!! I did not want to mentally picture that nor did my young child, who was sitting nearby, need to hear that! It was thrown in there so quickly and unexpectedly. This is not the type of show for that nonsense. I have stopped liking the show completely! No more of this show for me!

bboykin This has the makings of a show that could go a few seasons. There is no shortage of people who have been shafted by bad contractors. There is a natural conflict build into each episode when customers meet deadbeat contractor. Plenty of emotion from suffering families. Feel good ending built in. Plenty of humor throughout. I was half afraid there would besome violence when they cornered the contractor. I think Skip or Adam could have handled it. Actually, I think Alison could have handled this first contractor. Carolla is a genuinely funny fellow. I have heard him on radio live and marvel at his ability to be humorous on cue. I can't think of anyone funnier than him off the cuff or better suited for live- roasting sheisters. His humor can be a little edgy, but hey, he's comedian. He is supposed to be funny. One of the few shows worth sitting through online advertisements for.
