I've watched American Chopper since it was first aired a few years ago! There were so many times I thought 'Woe'!! This Dad is too rough on his son!! But then Dad *Paule Sr.* shows his Teddy Bear side and the fact that his tough love is more Loving than it is Tough! Anyone who doesn't get this, simply isn't watching this show. But the fun and emotional journey isn't all this show has. No Way. This show also has the aspect of creativity, talent, skill and creation. The creation amidst stormy interpersonal relationships within the family and the shop make for a dramatic unraveling of emotions, a project, pressure to meet deadlines and finally a finished product that makes us all smile and look at the Chopper *motorcycle* in awe of just how wonderful this family is and what they are capable of providing their viewers with each and every show! A wonderful journey of project, acceptance, disorganization, the attempt to organize, deadline pressure, Dad's size 12, Mikey's comic intervention, Vance's and Ricks valiant effort to help, and finally Paulie Jr. a young man with a God given Talent to creat the most awesome and beautiful Motorcycles for the eyes to see!! Yeah, I'm a fan! LOL! Gerard Haughey New Rochelle, NY g4theweb@aol.comVollständige Rezension lesen
It you've never watched the show on TLC or Discovery it is a must see. American Chopper is so much more than just a show about building motorcycles. This is a moving story about the trials and tribulations of a father and his sons trying to build a business. The reality is real, this is a non-scripted show. The Teutul are a train wreck waiting to happen, but you have to love them because they are a family and they don't hide their flaws. The combination of Paul Sr. with his know it all attitude, Paul Jr. with his talent and laid back gift for motorcycle design alone make the show a hit, then there's Mickey a teddy bear of a man whose laziness and humor are instantly likeable. The show is full of destruction, comedy and fighting all set around the building of a theme bike. Let me add that these guys are no slouches when it comes to building bikes. They create usable works of art. There is no question as to why this is one of Dicovery Channels biggest hit or why the show has lasted so long. I do suggest starting at the begining and working your way to the current season. A lot happens and they refer back. Plus it's nice to understand the lingo of the builds. If you enjoy reality tv, soap operas, sitcoms or dramas you should enjoy this show.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I just recently got into doing motorcycle modification however I am not very interested in Chopper but more Rat and Bobber bikes. However I got this box set for there welding and interest in what the "other" guys are doing. However, this box set did not have much out of the normal to offer but was interested. the clowns of OCC was very enjoyable as well Entertaining. Cheers to the guys of OCC though for taking the Orange County name out of the West Coast and into a small town and for being creative. However one question that left unanswered is that this is more of a mod chop shop rather than building the engine, OCC just assembles the unit (unless its one of those behind the scene deal). The bonus features shows everything you don't see on TV including how big are these king dorks of OCC but again --- my review is rather should be taken in a positive tone rather than an insult. I also noticed the OCC use various of local shops for techs and paint shop and it's good to see these guys work within there own community as I am sure people in this small NY town are supportive of them as well.
