The way I see it is that it's just entertainment. It does have bikes, and somewhat of the biker lifestyle. But there is no way that some of the real life senarios come into play because there would be too many ramifications come about. I mean look at the show Moonshiners, that crap is illegal but yet you are treking thru the woods with a camera crew saying " If we get caught, it's jail time." Gimme a break, it ain't happenin.
I like the show Chicago Fire. But I am a Captian on our local fire dept. It ain't quite like that. Most of the structures, burning, that I go into, you can't see s#%t let alone have a camera filming.That being said, if you watch with an open mind, then it is good viewing.

Hey, is there spell checker on here cause I sure could use it?

You guys are too critical. It's bikes and bikers...I think any show on this subject would be controversial and highly criticized. Enjoy it for what it is. They have to do goofy fake **** to make it "entertaining" and keep it "legal". Otherwise you guys would say it is boring or the police would shut it down.

I laughed my *** off when the VP showed up at the bike drags in his Cadillac. What a joke. We never did get to see Sandman put anyone to sleep. Although I was surprised Rusty from 81 appeared on there.

I'm not going to believe a minute of it while I watch every episode. I'm starved for entertainment.

Found this poking around on the web. I don't know how much truth there is to it, but if it is accurate, these guys are huge f-cking clowns.

So, my answer to your question is a resounding YES, we have sunk that low.


Now to sit back and wait for someone to post what a wonderfully wholesome show it is and that their entire family gathers around the television to enjoy those crazy Thompsons and their zany antics.




edit: Yes, I realize that there's not enuff kids in the picture above. I'll try harder next time.
yup. Lots of bad crap on TV.

IMO, the Laffing douchebags aren't even close to the worst thing on the tube.

I'll watch it... at least there are bikes in it.
