Have any of you guys seen the show Bullrun on Spike? It's sorta like Amazing Race (or Cannonball Run) in that they have to travel from city-to-city as quickly as possible, but it's also like a reality show where they have to compete using the cars in some sort of racing/driving competition once they get to their destination.

On the episode I saw, they had an 18-wheeler dragging these 4 flat 'boards' behind it. They had to drive up on the board with their wheel, which would snap it free from the 18-wheeler. If you went too far and snaped-free the board's tow rope, 15 second penalty.

Cars range from a '57 Chevy, '69 Charger, newer BMW M3, riced Civic, some guys from Texas in a F-150, father/daughter in a WS6 TransAm, Lotus Elise, etc. $200,000 to win the whole thing.

It's on Tuesday nights at 10pm, with various repeats on Sat/Sun. If you go to spiketv.com (with broadband) it looks like you can just watch the full episodes online.

Oh yeah, it's hosted by Goldberg.

After watching a couple episodes of this, it's definitely thumbs-up.

I watched the last episode on the website. Very entertaining. I wonder how long the wayward Mexicans will last.

The Mexicans and the brothers from NY in the '75 W-30 aren't very good at navigating.

The driving challenges are definitely cool. Check out the slalom they do in episode 3.

So, has anyone else been watching this? It's easily the coolest reality-TV show out there -- the fact that you can watch it commercial-free from their website is even better.

They're down to the final four -- '68 Charger, '75 Olds W-30, late model F-150 and 4th-gen Trans-Am..

when I had some spare time, I went back to the website to watch more and couldn't find the episodes anymore. It appeared to me that they removed them.

Thanks, Dave. This is getting to be one of my favorite shows.
