American Chopper: The Series

Check out american chopper on discovery (mondays 10pm est)... it's more than just building bikes. It's about family, power, perseverance, frustration, and so much more. Paul Jr. and Paul Sr. disagree on almost everything. It's almost comical to watch their arguments. Sometimes the stress gets to these boys, and it's interesting to watch them sort it out.

I love "Orange County Choppers"! I was channel surfing one day and noticed Paul Sr., stopped on the channel and decided to watch it for a bit. I haven't missed a show yet. I can't tell you how much I enjoy watching the crew work together. Paul Jr. and Dad. They are the best. The bikes are beautiful, such a work of art. When I know a show is going to be on, at a time I can watch, I rush home and turn on the TV. It is like watching friends. I feel like I know them. Reality shows are not me, but this one, what can I say. It is different. I am your "PR" gal. I tell everyone about the show. The only thing left for me to do is meet Paul Sr. I have always loved bikes. Thank you again, for this great show.

I came upon this show by sure accident but I have to say this is one of my favorite shows now. I love to see what Paulie is going to come up with next and what Big Paul is going to yell at Paulie about next. You can also see the love that this father and son really have for each other and what they do. I met them a couple weeks ago and I have to say they where so nice and didn't seem to have any of this going to their heads.

The Discovery Channel provides great insight to creativity and mechanical fabrication. So the hosts are Simpsons-like in their family dysfunction, but look at the wonderful creations that are assembled, the use of design tools, and imagination (how ever it is induced). Though I am not a cycle rider/owner for physical handicap reasons, the show offers a fine view of the custom fabrication shop environment that can be enjoyed by anyone with a notion of mechanical fabrication curiosity. Justice is served well by the Discovery Channel for bringing the the Teutul's obnoxious creativity in to our living rooms. Personally having a background in fabrication (auto & aircraft) it is a treat to see the Teutul family dysfunction coupled with mechanical ingenuity displayed in one hour vignettes. Ride on boys!

This show was unlike any other. I tuned in to see what it was like building a motorcycle. It was the third episode ever and I was hooked. I taped every episode since and the pattern is obvious. TLC ruined it. The essence of the show shifted from father and son and crew building kickass bikes to father and sons visiting Russell Crowe and Danica Patrick. For some reason it became the Jason Poole, Jim Quinn, and Nub show with the Teutels skeet shooting or bungee jumping or whatever the hell else TLC has them do. It has nothing to do with the show getting too popular or the business getting too big it's just this "Turbo TLC" in your face attitude that ruined it for all of us. Not to mention all the awful commercials for that retarded "Miami Ink" show which no one who can read or write would ever watch. Terrible, terrible, terrible.

P.S. I'm not taping anymore shows. Show was a ten, now a four or five.
