I saw those ads and can't wait to see the program. It sounds like this may be a series.

This is a repeat of the show shown last year.

I reported last year like you are now but didn't get any more interest than you are.

If you are a car buff at all this is a must see.

The time is 9pm Eastern.

I would like to know how much the guy in Brentwood spent on his underground garage. It must have been in the millions.

Extreme Garages

Get revved for an extreme look at how garages have been transformed into amazingly creative spaces to house America's one true love--the automobile. Attached, detached, underground, above-ground, these amazing interiors and multi-bay beauties scream excitement and style. These extreme garages are well-designed tour de force architectural statements. Get ready for an hour of fun, fun, fun till daddy puts the garage door down on this great American icon.

Man, I missed it! I didn't even hear about it since I watch this channel only 1% of my time. Is it going to show again?

There are no classic, exotic, or really expensive cars parked in it, there is a pool table in the third car side so one of the vehicles (the CR-V) sleeps outside, and I have to wax the floor about three times a year, but it is what I call the "Garage Majal." I didn't see the show so I can only guess what the cost of those places were. Mine was $200 in primer and paint, $1000 on the floor, $600 on the cabinets, $200 on recovering and the dust cover for the pool table (table was free, thanks Darren), and the signs and decorations costs vary from item to item. What is new and not in the photo's is the bar table and stools next to the refrigerator.

Damn your car sleeps in a better room than the one I sleep in! Good job!

You don't have to get invited to Pebble Beach to have fun in the garage. This one is now filled up with the S2k & two MGs, engine host, etc. but I love the natural gas heat!
