    No Sons of Anarchy is a soap opera, least OCC its just about the drama between the guys, like rivial clubs. Not the wives and girlfriends drama.
    Which Sons of Anarchy uses to bring in women viewers. IF we had to also see the drama between SR and his wife, and JR and his wife, VInne and his wife bla bla bla, then its a soap opera ;)

    I think Rick and Vinnie and Christian had all the talent. In the latter shows it seemed like they were always just putting a slightly different twist on the same old thing.:banghead3:

    I watched two episodes of the original show. Everything on TV these days is a variation of that format - pure crap.

    When my TV quits, it will NOT get replaced. To paraphrase a Pink Floyd lyric - "I've got 400 channels of $#!t on the TV to choose from..."

    In my opinion, theres something desparately wrong when a man has the kind of relationship with his children that he appears to have.

    I watched the first season because I'm a gearhead. Had nothing to do with thier talent or personalities. But it quickly became clear that Sr. had issues, and when the personal dynamic started to become as much a part of the show as the bikes, I was no longer interested. Its like watching porn and they break out in conversation.......not interested.

    That's how I feel about the "Sr. vs. Jr." edition of the show. What a crock. I'm for Jr., of course, but they took the focus off the bikes and turned the show into a freakin' Peyton Place. What a shame. Thanks for nothing, Discovery Channel.

    LOL on the PF reference. I always tell my friends "Before cable TV, I had 13 channels of sh**...now that I got cable, I've got 550 channels of crystal-clear, digital-quality HDTV sh**!". And in the meantime, NASA just lauched another satellite capable of broadcasting "Ishtar" 24 hours a day to Puerto Rico... :banghead3:

    I just love it when "celebrities" try to sell the stuff off and think it worth more just because they owned it once.

    That Camaro? Literally a dime a dozen clone wannabe COPO car. BFD.

    Those bikes? Nothing special to me. Funny, the one guy won the bike and it sat in a warehouse for a year. I am guessing he must have been really excited about winning it, eh?

    When it came down to crap going on between senior and junior it really became a tit for Teutul thing...

    Vinnie just quit there and claimed he had to move on to do other things. My hunch is, he got tired of having to extract the crossthreaded and thus broken-off bolts Paul Jr. busted off. The Curly of the 3 (Mikey) owns a house for screwing off all day. I bet, they weren't paying Vinnie that much, despite his importance there. Those people tend to spoil their kids. I've seen plenty of such examples, before. There's nothing worse than to employ your own kids, before they go and work for someone else or have served in the military.
    O.C.C.'s Moe, Paulette Shenior looks rediculous wearing that (qu)earing and tanktops. Especially, when she flexes her muscles, showing off those shaven pits. Again, at that age. How gross. The guy should start wearing normal t-shirts or whatever. I wonder if she even shaves her legs.
    Maybe, I'd better shut up. I might have to go work for those people :49:

    I worked for my dad for 13 years. We had deadlines and jobs to do and didn't always agree but we never
    Spoked to each other like that. When I moved on to other things we still restored and worked on cars together
    As a hobby and also disagree with some of our projects but still have never talked to each other that way.
    They both have a lack of respect for each other not only as a father and son but as people.

    Just my 2 cents

    Isn't that what the whole Harley Davidson thing is anyway?

    Another reason our TV hasn't been on since the digital age. We get more than we can stand when visiting our kids in July.
    Reality? ;)
    As far as the OCC guys, Mikey was the only one who spoke to us when in Daytona one bike week. The others only held out their hands for dollars for OCC crap. They may have said "thanks" after someone bought a $25 T-shirt.
    A friend said he saw Paul Jr riding his motorcycle around in the Daytona Speedway during Turkey Run. This was a car show. Not a bike event or cruisin event inside the Speedway. :cry:

    A couple years ago at "Bikes at Carlisle" a couple friends of mine were set up rite across the pavement from the OCC bunch in the swap area. The wife told me a couple months later that she and Bruce "Her Hubby" watched some poor guy stand in line for 2 1/2 to 3 hours to get those guys to sign a T-shirt that he'd brought with him. Father and son both refused to sign the shirt because the kid hadn't bought it from them. I happly spread that word whenever the word seams like it should be spread:tiphat: Jer

    Yep Barney, the way we saw it too in Daytona several different years. Money talks with those boys.
    At first I loved the shows. But the crap got worse as time passed.

    One of the true honest bike builders we met was Indian Larry. A real man and a real biker. Wife even got to sit on his show bike for pictures. Seems like that may have been his last time in Daytona. RIP

    Those clowns are the World Wrestling Federation of bicycle-building. Nobody cares about their boring work. It's their mouths which get their TV ratings.
    Their bikes aren't practically built to ride, anyway. They seem to build them for people who park them in their living rooms. When I see old man Pauline bend solid bar instead of tube, I think about how unneccesarilly heavy those bikes end up, not to mention that welded add-on frivolous kitsch.
    Here's one of their clown bikes made by clowns for clowns: http://flickrhivemind.net/Tags/daien/Interesting
