Mighty car mods .... On Foxtel!

[PranK]

Whoa! 

Watching Wheeler Dealers tonight (dont judge me) and at every ad break there is an ad for the new Mighty Car Mods show! They now have a gig on Foxtel! It looks kinda stupid and kinda funny. I was never a watcher of their Youtube films so I don't know what to expect.

Thats crazy. Well done to them!

I'm pretty sure it's the specials that's already on their youtube channel.

I thought you were taking the piss but I just saw the ad, good on them

Other than money, I would think going to TV would only degrade their work. There's a whole range of executive influence over your work, to make it appeal to a wider audience (at least in their eyes), or make it "family friendly". Marty and Moog have their own vibe and I would hate to see it turned into something fake.

From what I saw of the ad it is the mod max build that is going to be shown on foxtel

[NRV155]

I don't get why they are showing this on paid tv when you can watch it whenever you want for free on the interweb.

[r32-25t]

Cause old people don't watch stuff on the line

They're not going to have any "executive influence" over their work.

They will continue on YouTube as they always have. Discovery will only be showing specials that are already available on Youtube. I believe they will be also shown on some airline flights. Nothing will change from their current format, they will just be able to expand their audience.
