What was that all about? That was the most rubbish I have ever seen Blink

If you call it "Supercross 2015 talk show" then okay, no problem. But do not name it after one of the best documentaries all time and then come up with a mediocre talk show with no new content Huh Such a disappointment ..

I have to agree with you all. Last season was probably the best thing I'd ever watched on TV. I pumped this up to everyone I know and it turns out to be the standard Supercross preview show they do every year. A massive commercial for supercross. Pretty much unwatchable. And to top it off there talking like the season hasn't started yet. Someone really dropped the ball on this one.

Maybe it will get back on track as the season moves on?

Maybe that was the exception that proves the rule, and they will be back in force?

Yep,

That was lame! To read DCs comments in racerhead, I was expecting to hear some hardcore bench racing, RVs retirement from SX, James' suspension, etc.....

You guys realize this was just the "season preview" episode (even though it's a bit late). The story episodes like last year start next week.

Definitely can tell what Troy Adamitis brings to the table when he makes a show. No way was he involved with the show (rubbish) that was aired this morning. Angry

I really hope so but I'm a bit hesitant / reserved

They saId RV has retired. Why can't Motocross and Supercross just get along? lol. It's like the supercross announcers are told "Do not mention motocross, nobody can know it exists lol". Even with Davey Coombs sitting there. I noticed it all last season. They're not scared to mention supercross exists on the MX broadcasts. Seems childish to me.

Does anyone know for sure if Troy Adamitis will be involved in the remaining episodes? It will be a major let down if he's not.

I think that the "Behind The Dream" series last season was so well done with both story lines and cinematography. More importantly I think that it gave some merit to the sport along with sparking peoples passion to follow the supercross series.

There is no way Troy had anything to do with that, it wasn't any different than the 30 minute infomercial they did last year on CBS

go look on RV's instagram, at leat half of the comments are dumbasses calling RV a pussy for "retiring" and saying hes scared to race in the USA

how hard is it to just say his surgery was extensive and recovery time did not allow him to defend his title so decided to race the MXGP's

do they think people are going to turn off SX and watch the GP's because RV isnt there?

too many stupid people running that broadcast

Phil Alderton's father hired me after I graduated a year early from high school and became my first sales mentor. Phil AKA Big Flip said when the competition's name came up you ALWAYS took the high road and could even pay them a respectful comment like "yes they are a well respected competitors of ours"or something of that nature. Big Flip said you never ever say anything bad about a competitor even if it was true. Big Flip didn't write the Dead Sea Scrolls but his philosophy about dealing with competitors stuck with me for almost four decades.

Red Bull and Monster need to recognize their is plenty out there for the two of them. Wish Big Flip was around to give them a talking to.

They shouldn't call it Behind The Dream if it's just a FELD advertisement. Were there any circus commercials during the show?

As a season preview I thought it was pretty good, 22 minutes, not bad.

It's only 22 minutes long? WTF? I bet the commercials were longer than the show itself!

I'm glad I did not watch. I was poopinig, reading my ipad when I saw a thread that reminded me it was on at 10:30 eastern, I thought "shit, I'm 5 minutes late", which turned into 20 minutes when I was done so I missed it. Sounds like my dump made me feel better on the inside than the show would've
