Watch Owner's Manual

Owner's Manual is a reality TV series that aired on AMC in 2013. The show explores the concept of the instruction manual and how essential it is for people to read and follow the instructions that come with any equipment they buy. Ed Sanders and Marcus Hunt are the hosts of the show who test out a range of equipment, appliances, and various devices, putting them through their paces in real-world tests to see if they can operate them without referring to the instruction manuals.

The show's premise is based on the age-old question that people ask themselves whenever they purchase something new, "Do I really need to read the instruction manual?". The hosts believe that owner's manuals exist for a reason and insist that people read them. Owner's Manual is the perfect show for anyone who has ever wondered if they're doing something wrong or if they need to read the instructions to use a device correctly.

Over the course of the show's run, Ed Sanders and Marcus Hunt take on some of the most ridiculous challenges, every time trying to figure out how to operate and eventually master them. The results are often hilarious, as the two hosts take turns trying to decipher complex instructions and put their new-found knowledge to the test.

At the start of each episode, Ed and Marcus meet to discuss their challenge for the day. It can be anything from a simple DIY project to operating heavy machinery, and the hosts always agree to take on the challenges before seeing the instructions. Once they've agreed, they each receive the instruction manual, which they're not allowed to open until the challenge is complete.

Throughout the show, the hosts tackle many challenges, including cooking on an open flame grill, soldering circuit boards, operating a crane, and even flying a helicopter. They often start the challenges by guessing how to operate the device, talking out loud and trying to figure out the instructions. We get to see how they work together, often bickering but always pushing each other to keep going.

As the show progresses, the hosts face some of the most complicated and difficult challenges, with smoke often rising from the machinery as they laboriously attempt to fix something. But the show never loses its sense of humor, and the two hosts always manage to find comedy in their failures.

What makes Owner's Manual such an entertaining show is that anyone can relate to the challenges the hosts face. Often, the tasks they must complete are things that you or I would try to figure out in our everyday lives. Whether it's repairing a sink, learning how to use a camera, or figuring out how to program a thermostat. Ed Sanders and Marcus Hunt make the challenges fun and engaging, something that's not always easy to do with tasks that can often seem mundane.

Not only do we get to witness the hilarious antics of the hosts, but the show also educates its viewers on important aspects of everyday life. The viewer picks up much-needed advice on how to tackle different challenges at home, and the hosts teach you about the importance of reading the instructions when working with any new piece of equipment. They demonstrate the right procedures to solve problems related to everyday items around the house and provide basic techniques for DIY work that can be very beneficial to people.

In conclusion, Owner's Manual is an intelligently produced reality show that will entertain and educate you at the same time. The chemistry between the two Eds is remarkable, and they play off each other beautifully. The show reminds viewers that reading the instruction manual is not only essential, but it can also avoid accidents and save you time and money. It's an excellent show with an educational twist that can be enjoyed by everyone.
