It's been awhile since I've writen about one of my favorite shows American Chopper on TLC and that's for good reason, the show seems to have taken a turn in my eyes and not for the better. I remember watching the original episodes that my family has on DVD and what a difference...Right now it's more about fighting within the staff (not just Sr. and Jr.), theme bikes for corporate sponsors like a piping company and so on...without showing off the creation of the chopper itself. Normally each chopper takes two or three episodes and viewers see each step, however now, it takes one episode and it's more towards there personal lifes and from what I had seen in the previous episode on the Mercedes-AMG company which creates nice high performance, expensive cars and while I like the luxury chopper that they created (it reminds me of the Lincoln Chopper which was a dark red that was really nice) and the tour of the factory where they hand build several engines a day, the show still lacked what it use to have.
And if that wasn't enough, my family bought the first three seasons on DVD for around $30 each and now the season 4 DVD and beyond is at least $60 for the entire season with less on it, what gives and where are the repeats throughout the on TLC, if you miss the show on Thursday night, your out of luck...well, at least the show is still somewhat entertaining and this time they build a good looking chopper. What's Next? Comments on the show or the OCC Mercedes-AMG Chopper.- Racedriven
