I have been hooked on this show since it started. They could lose a bit of the reality show junk but I love seeing all the cool guns the contestants get to play with. Anybody else tuning in?

Me too. As soon as a gun comes up I'm googleing it. They need to have a Red Rider comp. where you shoot at cans. I mean that's how everyone started.
 
I am at work tonight but I've got the DVR set. I have only seen seasons 2 & 3 but I'm hooked like Garth. The host is a little overly dramatic and I can do without rock throwing and a commercial every few minutes. But I think every show on tv has too many commercials, thats why I DVR most shows. I would say its in my top 5 somewhere behind Dexter, The Walking Dead and Justified.
 
I love that show! And so does my wife, we always dvr it because of all the commercials like has already been said. And i agree i fail to see why rock throwing is in top shot... I do like the throwing knives and tomahawks tho.

Did you hear the oldschool challange for this year? Theyre shooting marbles.
 
I was home this weekend and had the time to watch I think the last 5 shows of season 3. I too do not think theyl need to compete with the reality shows by overdramatizing. I like the fact that they teach the contestants how to used the weapon before they compete. So it evens the playing field some. I like when the contestants talk about thier experiences during the competitions. They express thier feelings and tell us what they did well and when and what mistakes they made.

Too funny that you watch it with your wife. I can relate. This is one of a very very short list of tv shows that my wife and I can watch together. She thinks most of the shows i watch are either to bloody (Walking Dead) or boring (WWII in color). Her shows are girly and dumb, but we always agree on Top Shot.

I keep hearing about this show when I get to work. I really need to start watching T.V.
 
I love the show, and really liked this past season. I forget the name of the young fellow that won, but that kid could shoot.

I did miss the start of the new season last night though. Justified and Southland are the ones I watched last night, but I'll catch the new Top Shot before next weeks episode shows.
 
What is this "DVR" that you speak of? I did watch Justified last night, though. Always have to make myself turn off the TV so I don't watch it again. It and Sons of Anarchy are two of my favorites right now.

Ehh, the wife and I watched it last night. Since the Walking Dead wasn't on. You know, the funny thing, I can always call it when there will be a tie, who's gonna win, and what the scores will be. Its fake as all get out, but it does have guns, and therefore constitutes a win.

Hey, look at me, first Busse Forum Post.

Way to go Moose, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, oh yeah, go Moose, uh huh, uh huh!!!!

:D

Moose
 
We have it recorded and will watch tonight. Nancy and I love it as does "the Ham" Brigham that is ;)

I have shot with a bunch of the experts that come on.

We incorporate some of the shots or challenges into our matches every once in a while.

Fun stuff

I'm pretty sure it's not fake Moose. I'm also pretty sure that WD show is though, but I'll never watch it, so I may never really find out:p
 
Because of the drama and that toolbag of a host, I find it unwatchable. I think the PREMISE is great and would love to watch. I don't need that moron telling me everything in painfully slow real time. That part of the "reality show" mantra has GOT to die. This isn't Survivor. Stop announcing it ilke it is.

Imagine that guy at Fogo's.


"The brisket has arrived. GARTH! Garth takes a piece of brisket. DAVEBROWN! Dave Brown takes a piece of brisket. Thats one piece of brisket for Garth, one for Dave Brown. JAXX!!!!! JAXX TAKES A BRISKET! It's anyone's game now. Just to review, Garth, one piece. Dave Brown, one piece. Jaxx, one piece."

You can tell from the Top Shot/Top Gear commercials the guy knows he's annoying and fully believe HE is the reason people watch. Ugh.
