season 1 was the proof of concept, this was the definitive season that turned Junkyard Wars into a hit. A real competition with different teams every week and a champion. Of course we’d keep seeing some of these people for a while. And season 3 will give us the first American competitors.
did I mention that this was my favorite thing on TV for 2 or 3 years?
i guess my favorite season 2 moment was Nosh in this episode “we want to give girls a ride”. I think the jumping jeep looked like the most uncomfortable vehicle that ever competed, and basically designed to beat itself to death. And the other one was the first ever junkyard hydraulics, which would come to be a watchword for unreliability.
of my very favorite JWars moments, one is coming up in season 3. A competitor points to a smoking lump of metal on the ground “you see that? that’s the clutch”.
