American Chopper: Sr Vs. Jr, Anyone going to watch this?

Go jr!

 

I'll watch in the hopes that Jr. builds his bikes much like they first did when they started and not on some autocad program. Don't get me wrong autocad is sweet, but I like the old approach to building bikes and the last bikes that they were building were pretty shitty in my honest opinion. Just seemed like plain ole expensive choppers. Maybe, since choppers aren't all that popular as they used to be, he'll take the bobber and bagger approach and build some real functional bikes, well at least the baggers. Bobbers are just bar hopping bikes. I'm building on myself now, so i can hop bars.

 

I wont watch.
I think one of the things that pisses Sr. off is HE was the guy who started it all. busting his ass in a pickup truck building railings years ago. turning that into a steel business, is he an ass? sure, but come to NY and see how many people you think are nice here.(especially that close to NYC.) Is Jr. A prima-donna? Absolutely. He can be seen in earlier shows dissing his old man saying "I'm the talent, without me He (SR.) has nothing". If i busted my ass for years, And built the company from a pickup truck and heard my kid saying this crap. i'd knock his ass out!

 

I will watch a couple episodes to see how it goes. I just like to watch these shows for the stuff they build. Thats why I record them. So I can fast forward through all the BS.

 

Are you sure Cody is coming back too??? Cody kicks ass!

 

No I'm not 100% sure "neontrail".
I did read that off an online article about the show coming back, they said he was. I don't know how reliable they are and where they got their source.

I know that after Vinnie left, he started his own bike shop and hired Cody to work for him.
So maybe Vinnie brought him over to work with them.
I'm not sure how well that company is doing or did, maybe they had to close the doors because of the crappy times? And that's why Vinnie is working for Jr. now?

 

looks fake and stupid to me. they fought bitterly and left on horrible terms, they are suing each other in court and haven't spoken to each other in years and now they are co staring on the same reality tv show? i dont think so. they (Sr. and Jr.) are just trying to keep their cash cow from dying. after their show got canceled, they realized, hey, you know what? in hte worst recession since the great depression nobody wants to pay insane amounts of money for ridiculous choppers. i think they are now trying to correct their mistake and are doing whatever it takes to keep that cash rollin in. they took a good thing and ruined it and now realize there is nothing else they can do that will make them that famous and rich, and they are holding on for dear life.

 

Personally I think Jr. has the talent to build the cool bikes. But he doesn't seem to have good business skills or work ethic. Sr. knows how to run a good business, but isn't the designer. I think they would be better off building the theme choppers like in the begining. Right now they just build the same bike put a neat paint job on it and maybe add a few custom parts here and there. I agree though that they have figured out that without a show they can't keep making the big money and have to keep it going.

 

Ahh, no

 

i like how everybody thinks this fight between them is fake when it isnt.

 

i'm sure the fight between them is as real as it can be, but there is no way this show got organized without them getting together and reaching some kind of agreement or arrangement. even if they still hate each other, they still know they are a package deal, and neither of them will be as successful alone as they could be together.

 

That show used to be awesome:

Now its horrible. No I will not be watching.

 

Cant wait to watch this tomorrow! I just feel that they really need to cut the bullshit life is to short to be pissed at your family! Should be some good TV! Paul Sr. is a jerk off IMO!

 

This video=Epics Win!

 

I used to watch it, but got tired of seeing Sr. & Jr. at each others throats. Pretty sad if you ask me, even if half of it was staged.

 

Jr. has Vinnie & Nub back... Hell yeah!!

 

I don't think it's staged or any of the fighting is fake. You can really see and hear the built up aggression of the fights, and it just doesn't seem like they are acting to me.

But I will say that having the cameras there, could certainly add some friction to it, and always working together.

I don't mind seeing a few fights, it makes the show interesting. But the fights eventually turned into fights about nothing, and they were fighting just to fight. And that I didn't like at all.

I certainly hope they can patch things up, but I wouldn't recommend putting any money on it!

 

I will watch it just because it is Summer and there isn't jack on TV during the week other than Rangers baseball! The only good night for TV these days is Sunday night HBO and Mad Men! I am ready for fall TV to start back up!

 

aint it the truth...TV now is almost punishment!...the punishment being you gotta pay for that sh*t!

 

yeap,cant wait
