On charter cable it has been broadcasting in Spanish for the past 3-4 weeks. Hello fix it so I can understand what is being said. Reported 3 weeks ago and yet still nothing being done. I love watching this show on spike TV but come on this is the only program being broadcasted in Spanish!!!!! Can't even watch the episodes on my computer because you guys don't list Charter Cable as a provider! This is flipping ridiculous!!!!

I love anything to do with tattoos and I like how the show is structured. I also appreciate that they did something new in season 7 with the veterans vs. newbies and now with season 8 for Peck vs. Nuñez. My favorite about thing about this show are the flash challenges, which I think showcase the true versatility of the contestants. I also really appreciate Dave Navarro's presence on this show, but I wish that Spike TV would allow more of his personality to shine! He's hilarious!

As a tattooed person and ink fan, I have watched this show since the beginning. I enjoy the competitive aspect but could do without some of the drama. I have definitely seen some cringe worthy tattoos, but also have been turned on to some amazing artists whose work I was not familiar with before Ink Master. I have also learned a ton about tattooing from the judges critiques. For a fan of ink, worth checking out.
