Trouble is, everyone watches it to pan it, so it gets decent viewing figures, so they think it's popular. If no one tunes in, maybe they'll get the hint?

You aren't missing anything. A "mechanic" with a bad temper and a Canadian "money man" (think wheeler dealers meets east enders but with worse acting and even less realistic prices)
