American Chopper = CANCELED

TLC has finally pulled the plug on American Chopper.

During the early days of the show, I actually liked watching them build bikes despite the lack of practicality most bikes exhibited. As the show went on, it became more of a drama and had far less to do with actually building motorcycles. I haven't watched it in a few years and won't miss it a bit.

Noticed that about a lot of these reality shows, they start off good then all of a sudden introduce the drama. Why is that? Not everyday do I act like that at work LOL.

I stopped watching after the 9/11 bike was made. Started going down hill after that. What a shame, they made some beautiful bikes.

I'm surprised they made it this far. Maybe they bought all the fancy equipment so they can switch over to custom manufacturing when the chopper business plays out.

^^^Im with you, i dont know how they made it this far.. show was a classic when it first started.

Damn, you know the Owner (name...?) made a FCKN killing off the show and its attention.

agree with hoz. watched it initially as they did make some beautiful one-off machines, but WAY too much family drama and too little motorcycle production at the end.

Agreed, I don't watch any shows anymore where all they do is yell at each other. Phhhtt, I can get that at home.

What is Howe and Howe tech?...firing up google now.
