TV Review: Click & Clack's As The Wrench Turns - Page 2

There are very few things the brothers take seriously with the exception of “distracted driving”. This means eating, putting on makeup, texting, etc while driving. The brothers are using this platform to bring an awareness of the dangers but they do it in a way that is still very funny and not distracting at all.

I watched the show with my family and polled them for their opinions. I liked it and thought it showed great promise. My wife and daughters thought it was funny in spots but on a whole wasn’t a great thing. Granted, they aren’t the core audience of Car Talk but they did laugh in the right spots.

Premiering July 9 on PBS stations, I believe that Click & Clack’s As The Wrench Turns, with a little fine tuning, has the makings of a big hit.

    I have to disagree with you. I really like the radio show but As The Wrench Turns just didn't do it for me.
