Insane Coaster Wars will start airing on the Travel Channel on July 8th.

Horrible title, odd coaster choices. Lots of interviews with ACErs. Yay.

Meh, I got a free ticket to Silverwood out of it, so not all bad.

I know it's old but I've only just got around to seeing the Extreme Engineering rollercoaster episode. A nice 3am surprise to what is usually just late nights of how to build a big shopping centre in Kazakhstan.

Wednesday the 23rd on Travel Channel at 8pm is "Top 5: Killer Coasters" in the US. They seem to be promo-ing New Texas Giant and Steel Dragon 2000.

^The coasters they are putting in the same groups often times are nothing alike. It makes it difficult to vote

For example this is there "Speed Demon" Category

Xcelerator at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, CA
Bizarro at Six Flags New England
Desperado at Buffalo Bill's in Primm, NV
Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH

On Destination America (I've honestly just discovered this) there's a program called Super Duper Thrill Rides that's not bad at all. One downside, it reeks of Alvey. Both of them. Can barely watch it

Well it is another one that is not on TV but it is on my forum from Monday and it is called "The European Attraction Show" presented by Shawn Sanbrooke and Alysha Holmes. - It's a very good series!

BBC Breakfast are in Cleethorpes today doing a report about how the crap weather is killing seaside businesses. The pre-recorded report includes some stuff on Pleasure Island, including a comically awkward interview with the owner, conducted on a wave swinger. I'm sure it'll be on again in an hour.

I'd like to see more tv programmes about them, i couple of programmes, The Top 10 Rollercoasters & one about designing The Top Thrill Dragster but that was years ago & recently i saw a couple of episodes of Team Extreme but that was more about the quiz than the rides, was cool to see them though.

Any shows I can catch on Netflix or On Demand? I tried doing all types of search, but the only one I found was the Disney World behind the scenes one, then I felt like watching more and I couldnt find anything else on any other park, rides etc... :cry:
