Enjoying it so far. I feel like it's always been the most real reality show on TV.

cause it's not a reality show....it's more of a documentary....same type as deadliest catch....

....filming people at work (obviously a huge generalization)....but still...same thing.....

there's no prizes, or people getting kicked off each week, or different groups of people each season.....

Mostly a bunch of tattooed drama queens if you ask me.

Still though, I have to admit it is fun to watch sometimes. Plus I love the bikes. If all they did was custom bikes, I'd be all over this show. I don't care what the old dude, the fat kid who doesn't do anything, or what the punk kid all argue about when it is not about bikes.

true....if you watch the spisodes from the first few seasons, there was a lot more attention drawn to the fabrication of the bikes, and less of the bull ****.....

....but that major change also happened when the show switched from discovery to tlc....so i blame tlc

that show is still on...?

ive seen the commercials, but have just lost interest with the Teutels. i wish they would stop doing all the corporate theme bikes and just show some of the regular day o day life like the original 'Motorcycle Mania' docs with Jesse James & WCC.

I think that they focus more on the outside of work stuff because the shop has grown so much that they C&C everything now instead of fabbing it like they used to. Rick making a gas tank is about the only cool thing they show anymore.

thats where i started losing interest... i like the hand craftsmanship, the C&C is nice but overused.

obviously thier business is huge now and they are able to do things like that, but the pissing matches and drama are just over the top for ratings sake.

I wonder if Sr. is ever going to realize that he's running his business into the ground by driving the talented people away.

that one episode with sr. and paulie get into a fight about how the bike should be done, but then they make up over a nice long ride is my favorite.

Nope, I don't think he will. The damage he caused to himself doing all the drugs and everything he did I think has finally caught up to him and hurt his ability to process things.

Anyone else watch last night when Paulie talked to his mom? That was the first time I can ever recall him talking to his mom on the show.

gravy jr's favorite part was abraham getting a bath, escaping, and then getting a shower...

CNC, not C&C.

Man, haven't watched that show in a long time. Might have to start again just to enjoy the greatness that is Mikey.

Used to enjoy the personnel-related drama on American Hot Rod back in the day. I couldn't believe it when I found out about Boyd Coddington passing away. Sad.

Saw this video where the guy goes out to the old OCC headquarters and walks around. The place got sold in bankruptcy and now some old lady has it built out with storage units.

OCC and American chopper seem like they were the first to do it. Started off the car shows and later youtube channels we see today. A group of personalities trying to do a car / bike build or whatever. Seems like it started with these guys.
