Keeping up with the Teutuls...

If the show was actually about fabrication and not about two grown men putting on an overdramitic show for money I might actually watch it. I have no idea how you all can get into that crap. Its like Real Housewives for men.

Agreed, there are definitely more "enlightening" shows available for viewing, and I like motorcycles as much as the next guy (although my preference was always more towards road-racers than cruisers).

X 2!!!!!

I remember back in the olden days when they actually used to fab up some pretty sweet sheez...

Of course, my memory goes all the way back to when they had music on this little upstart thing called

Looks like Ron and I are on the same page I tune out the drama (basically most of the dialogue! ) and just watch for enjoyment.....like that water transfer process with the $100 bills.....I'd never even heard of that process......then Boarzhead mentioned it and hey, I knew what he was talking about....a little....
and I'm not even into bikes...scared to death of them after a high school boyfriend "rode" me around

Seems I do vaguely recall that network you speak of...believe it was 1982......"Video killed the Radio...." boy hasn't that become pathetic!...same with VH1 and CMT...that leaves GAC playing "some" videos..

Yeah but, after you tune out the drama, AND the commercials you are left with about 5 minutes of watchable programming. I mean seriously...I just don't get it. Not to mention, Paul Sr. is so obnoxious and annoying to look at, let alone listen to, I just can't....

Fabrication I can certainly appreciate, even though the style of bikes they create are ugly as hell, imo. The fact is, this show is on daily, and the percentage of the show dedicated to showing the actual stuff getting made, is miniscule compared to the fabricated drama.

Shows like this should stay 100% focused on the fabrication, showing the details and steps that go into it, show the process, teach the methods. Then I would watch it.

Take for instance Two Guys Garage.....there is a show that is trying to LEARN the viewer, even though they are obviously sponsored by and bias towards certain products, you at least LEARN something when you watch their show. Maybe I'm weird, but I get zero entertainment value from 99.99% of the "reality" programming that is on these days. I guess that's why I don't watch much TV, because it seems like 99.99% of it is just another take on the same crap.

Suzie Suzie Suzie,
you really should pick your words more carefully.
The visualisation of your above statement nearly gave me a heart attack.

Guess I might have been reminiscing in my own old days.

how is it that you can see things that I rarely do??.......did I live a sheltered life or something?....(answer...no!)....yeah, I think you're reminiscing.....

let me re-word that....I think we may have gone 2 miles, and I squeezed his ribs so tight I don't think he could breath....and I sure was too scared to breath! I like 4 sides of thick metal around me!!


now, one of my fav shows is on now..."Dual Survival"...(a lot less BS drama for sure!)....and Cody is my home town hero around here, he lives a few miles from me......gotta go.....

MTV no longer has music videos.

Yesterday I saw a commercial for a live action show that is gonna be on CARTOON NETWORK.

And now, Animal Planet is "uniquely human".

I bet in 20 years, Animal Planet will be a sports channel, History Channel will be a channel dedicated to the apocalypse (the future). Cartoon Network will be a news channel, and MTV will be a hard core porn network.
