Saw the commercial for this week's episode. It will be a "very revealing" episode about Mikey. They also said they were concerned for him for a long time. I think someone on this forum said he's a pothead. Just wondering if anyone has seen this male soap opera since the whole fallout with Sr. and Pauly? |

Quoted: Forgot it was still on. Watched it a couple times about three years ago. I think I saw 5 minutes of the "post fight" episode and turned it off. Quit regularly watching after Cody and Vinnie left. I heard Rick is still there. Those were the 3 people I really liked on the show. Mikey's OK I guess but those were the three that never constantly whined or argued. |

Quoted:
I heard that Mikey, Sr. and Jr. were going to come out and admit they have a incestuous homosexual relationship and thats why Vinny left. Yea, I heard that too. Something about hot gay man love along with periodic fits of screaming at each other and then hot make up sex. |

Forgot it was still on. Watched it a couple times about three years ago. Same here. Never really liked the never ending fighting or the ghey theme bikes. Jesse James used to build much cooler choppers on West Coast Choppers on Discovery Channel. A few of them were theme based, but most of them were just what he thought was cool. |

Quoted: Didnt that show used to be about building motorcycles? You know a show about a business where they build real motorcycles (v. bolting crap they bought off the internet together) and the trials of trying to keep a small business going would be pretty interesting. Unfortunately TV execs think we are too stupid to pay attention to that and have shows like this with all these scripted, fake, fights that turn it into a soap opera for men who like motorcycles. If you want that why not just watch "Shield on Wheels" or whatever that Fox show is with the motorcycle gang. |

Was an interesting show when they were in the old building but as soon as they moved into the new bigger building I stopped watching... I liked the old stuff when they followed the fabricator around and actually showed how they were making the shit but now its totally lame with all the sponsored shit everywhere... |

Sr sucks at leadership. Sits in his office for most of the build then comes out and starts ragging on the design and the schedule. Yells at Jr to start building the bike before the design is finalized. Yeah, that works, start construction without a plan. Bad mouths his sons on camera to the entire nation. And every bike he gets involved in ends up with a sissy bar. WTF?
Jr sucks as an employee. Comes to work late everday, leaves when ever he wants, and spends way too much time "designing" the damn bike. Has no respect for Sr, "the employer". Can't understand why Sr freaks out on him when he is always late. WTF? Mickey is the child that has never had any discipline when he was younger. No desire to succeed in life and no attempts to apply himself. Sr feels guilty and gves him a janitor job that pays enough for him to by a new house. WTF? |

I used to watch that show once in a while when it first went on the air.
They assemble bikes, they didnt really manufacture much of anything. They fabricated some brackets and did a little metal bending, but I wouldnt say that they built motorcycles....they bought parts and put bikes together.....and hired out the custom work for the technical stuff. What channel is the show on these days? Are they still making episodes. Sounds like the whole damn thing fell apart. Cant say I'm surprised. If they really operated the way the business was portrayed on TV I am shocked that it grew that large in the first place. |

WTF? well put. i haven't watched that show in years. jesse james built bikes. he would start with a pile of tube and some sheetmetal and make a bike. |

Sr created a good business over the years and Jr became famous for it.
It went to Jrs head and Mikey is a waste of O2 with no discernable talent of any kind, riding off Sr and Jr coattails. It was a good program the first couple of seasons, but now is just Peyton Place with Jr, girlfriend, and Mikey. |

Sr is a drunk, still is.. what do you think was in all of those red plastic cups he was ALWAYS carrying around?
I figure him for a scotch man Jr, is creative, and talented, but not a natural artist Mikey was always along for the ride, a f*ck up from day one, and everyone knows it. But the producers wanted that dynamic in the show, it made the show interesting in the end, they will all die lonely, miserable deaths and be in debt up to their necks |

Discovery had the right idea when they did the very first show about Jesse James. It showed them building bikes, and him and his then wife worrying about making payroll. Plus watching Jesse take a sheet metal flat and beat it into a tank left no doubt about his skills. |

I still DVR this show, but it jumped the shark when Vinnie left. I usually skip forward through it fairly quickly since I can't stand senior any more. I'm waiting for the bankruptcy and, sadly agree there is something not right with Mikey that will not end well. I bet this is the last season. So much for flying under Deej's radar....  |

Exile cycles, and Russell (can't think of his name now, its late for me) probably, I didn't see the show. . I worked for Covington's for a few years, actually they are how I ended up in Florida before I ended up back in Oklahoma. The occ guys use to buy frames from us, yep they are douches.
