Ah, I therefore must digress a bit. YouTubers being involved, actual RVers.

I'd rate it as pretty much unwatchable. Wow...

Just watched the third episode. Good for beginning or prospective RVers but very boring for those that have been doing it a while!

I have watched 2 episodes and I find it hard to tell the difference between the commercials and the show. It just seems like one long series of commercials. Some of them are a little interesting but mostly just fluff.

I think someone should start a series titled "Intermediate and advanced rv'ing" and then include topics relevant to that title.

Too bad these brainiac TV producers/show creators can't do the smart thing for once. Create a show about RVers/RVing/RV ownership, maintenance, the whole thing.......starring real RVers. Right? They could easily use YouTube as a model. There's tons of useful and entertaining stuff on there by real RV people.
It therefore appears the show is targeting viewers completely ignorant of RVing and anything about it? I think that's kind of risky to assume it will be wildly successful. What small percentage of newbie viewers will rush right out and dive head first into RVing because of the TV show? Some yes, maybe, perhaps, and that's great.....but I bet that number will be far smaller than the rest....current RV enthusiasts. The rest won't watch more than once, if that, for lack of interest. Who then will make up the audience for high ratings/continuation of the program?
Also, if the info for newbies on this show is really poor, what good is that then? People who do go out and dive in armed with crappy information are in for a sharp learning curve. That can be quite an adventure in itself, except for the driving part......that's not good at all. So it kind of sounds like it's a show that doesn't really serve anyone.....there's better info/entertainment elsewhere. ?

Answer: No. However, I'll bet there are more than a few of us here who have enough technical ability to put together a really entertaining and useful tv or talk show. I think THAT would be a show with a good audience that might benefit a lot of people.

I will keep my opinions of the actual show close to the chest, however, i will encourage you to look up "Rv geeks", "Mortons on the move" and "technomadia" on youtube so you can get an idea of the people behind the show.
Have a great day!....

Sorry, but I’ve canceled it as a “series to be recorded” from my DVR because it is a “McRV show” ——hold the fries.

I have recorded all the episodes. I have watched them all with a fast forward button.
VERY BORING. I can 'watch' an episode in 5 minutes. Then delete. VERY disappointed!!!
Bring back the old RV show with Stew!

My thoughts exactly. Stew was entertaining, Tracy had some great tips, and Bill Gehr was great to watch repairing/maintaining stuff.
Did you ever watch Stew's trip to Lake Havasu with his sister and brother-in-law with a rented rv? There's some funny parts in that too.

The whole show is one continuous commercial for various RV products. It's hard to tell the actual commercials from the show.

The short answer to your question is yes.
