Roadkill Season 5

2016 14 Episodes Reality · Drama ⭐ 9/10

Right now you can watch Roadkill Season 5 on and — and it is more addictive than the premise lets on. The 1-season run is exactly the right length for what it is doing. 10 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Mike Finnegan anchors the format, but the whole cast makes it watchable. There is no real reason to keep putting it off.

Roadkill Season 5 arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Roadkill Season 5 has the format that countless others have tried to copy since. Season 5 of Roadkill includes 14 episodes. It aired from March 2016 to January 2017. This season stars Mike Finnegan and David Freiburger. Mike Finnegan and David Freiburger lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 2016. Roadkill Season 5 understands the difference between manufactured drama and the real thing, and leans on the latter. Every minute repays the time invested, and the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Reality sceptics are warned — Roadkill Season 5 has converted more than a few doubters. It rewards viewers regardless of what else is in their watch history. A contained run means every episode is doing real work. The casting and production never let it go stale. The kind of thing that disappears an evening without you noticing.

Mullet-Car Thrash Battle! (Jeep Wins)
2016-04-22
Roadkill is powered by Dodge, which honestly has nothing to do with us needlessly destroying a Chevy and a Ford in this episode. It’s the mullet-car showdown, a battle of dirt-cheap beaters: an SN95 Mustang V-6 and a third-gen Camaro with a 305 that’s so gutless it might as well be a V-6.

Junkyard 1956 Buick Hack!
2016-08-12
We literally hack a '56 Buick Century out of a thorn bush it’s been sitting in for 25 years, then continue slashing as we attempt to mount the body on a '73 Corvette chassis. Oh yeah, we hacked up that car, too. Watch for more Sawzalls, weed whacking, and plasma cutting per minute than any other epi...

The Mini-Truck and Road Runner Episode!
2017-01-06
On this episode of Roadkill powered by Dodge, both David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan get their dream car! Who wins that game is up to you: Is it Finnegan with his 1968 Datsun 520 mini-truck, or Freiburger with his 383-powered 1971 Plymouth Road Runner? One thing's for sure, the Datsun delivers a lo...
