I did enjoy American Chopper during the first two seasons. The whole hook in the show, in my opinion, is the perceived genius of Paul Jr. The constant bickering and the really abusive father are just a sort of strange sidebar. They JTS when they made the most mind-numbing decision in the history of television. They pulled the curtain back from the Wizard of Oz, allowing a extraordinarily grating person like Jason Pohl to basically push Paul Jr. to the side. He has the nerve to act like the chief designer, how could you allow the only thing that really mattered, Paul Jr's creative process to be hindered or exposed by such a person? The way he treats both Pauls is incredible, he doesn't allow his own sons to act in such an unprofessional, aggressive manner. He must be related.
When they became corporate it jumped. I still watch. The part I don't get is Paul Sr. enabling Mikey. Paul Sr. must have been a terrible father to have this lazy, fat, no talent, good for nothing son on the show. What I would like to see is a return to the roots where it began the first couple of seasons.
This show has SUCKED since Vinnie and Cody quit. Vinnie and Rick were the only ones in the shop with any skils. Now poor, spineless Rick is left there to take sh@t from senior. And the word is out on Sr. How he "gave" Cody the bike he built, then as soon as the cameras were off, he took the bike back. What a JERK! I'd rather watch paint dry than these ego driven barely skilled jerks on OCC
Was good. Now horrible. A&E please cancel ASAP
OCC = blah blah blah blah, real bad.
i think indian larry said it the best
OCC is nothing more then a bunch of cake decorators

Dam I miss indian larry
Save your time, please.,
anyone with basic engineering skills could build better bikes than OCC, the buy the frames, and the engines and the forks and transmission etc, rick makes the odd tank, but they even have a firm making those for them too, and the "tins" which is a typical american bullshit word for a mudguard!!! all the skill jobs are done by machines or others, have you ever seen jnr wire a bike or build an engine? no, its meccanno for grown ups, they don't even spray the bikes so the finished look of the "tins" is somebody elses hard work. i've never built a bike but leave me alone in their workshop for a day and i'd build one as good as any they have built, they don't even look comfortable to ride, try going more than a couple of miles on most of the bikes and not only would your ass be numb but your back would ache for a week. i've waited four seasons to see them try something as innovative as a bike i owned 25 yrs ago with tank design and use of materials for the front end and nothing has come close, its all just massive corporate advertising, what do you reckon it would cost the likes of lucas or peavey or any of the rest to buy t hat much airtime? even their production bikes are overpriced crap, you really think it would cost over £30,000 for a bike built with the same parts but without the OCC name on it? try half that, i know, i've priced all the parts, you pay at least 50-60% surcharge for having the OCC name on it. i'd pay for a bike built by vinnie and rick, i wouldn't take a freebie built by jnr and snr, A class tossers the pair of them and as for mikey? what a waste of space, snr can't keep a woman, the other two can't get one!!!!
The best part of this whole thing will be when the new world headquarters gets forclosed on. "Soul Patrol", if your going to make a homo erotic ***** of you and "Jesse James" engaging in anal intercourse than it will find its way to the internet for everyone to view. Its to late to distance yourself from that lifestyle. By the way, you may want to see a doctor about those open sores around your mouth, or at least pick up some cream to relieve the pain. Or is that how you came to have that condition in the first place? Picking up cream?eh? Lets face it, this crappy show won't last much longer and when it does, the droves of people will forget all about them and their fake lives, and the bank will come a closin' shop. Stay out of my posts SB! Peace Out Freaks!!!
I hate jj, how do you know so much about jj's ass? You been peeking in his window again?

The last couple bikes the Tuttles made were pretty decent. They didn't have all the nonsense welded to them just clean bikes.
I like the show. Always have.
I am Gay. BIG TIME!!!
So what do u want them to do, roll over and die because a couple guys quit? They build bikes for corportate sponsors to make money. You'd do it too...if you had any talent.
THIS SHOW JUMPED THE SHARK WHEN CHUBBY CHECKED TURNED UP AND THEY SANG "THE TWIST" IN THE WORKSHOP. THE END.
Mikey rocks, he should go with Vin and codey, mikey is the only one the makes the show fun!
