I got into it a few years ago and watched all the past episodes and got bored.
Started watching it a couple of weeks ago and it"s ok.
I like that there's 2 shops so there's more builds and it's not so boring.
My favorite is Nub. He's really talented and Rick's pretty good with sheet metal.
Anybody catch Paul Sr. on Celebrity Apprentice with that colossal bitch Lisa Lampanelli? He was like a fish outta water. Spoiler Alert! (he got fired)

Rick is the only one with any real talent...And Nub, that dude is SICK with paint. BUT lets face it, what do they really "BUILD"??? Someone else makes the frame, someone else makes the wheels, someone else paints it, someone else builds the front ends, someone else builds the seats, they cut a preformed fender, add some bolt ones, have a paint shop paint it, and call it "theirs". Hell, I can put a bike together. I can wire a headlight...

I watch it for the entertainment. Every now and then there is some comedy, and one day, someone is gonna spill the beans that the family spat was all scripted for TV, that really they hang out and are all loving when the camera is off.

I have been watching the show since day one. And like a lot off other guy's say on here....it's good entertainment. Kind of like a male soap opera i guess. And I think they put togethrer some pretty neat ****. And hey if those company's are going to pay me to drive there **** who would'nt. Being a ford guy i would have a hard time driving toyota trucks but.......

I watch it as entertainment value. Something to pass some time by.

My question is:
In 20-30 years is there gonna be a American Chopper: Junior vs. III? Possibly a build off between Senior, Junior and III?

Read a book much more entertaining and the content will always be better .

They're ascared to ride their own "fabrications". Ever seen them torque a bolt? I haven't. They build bikes with cordless drills and hammers.
