The only thing that bothers me about the show is the way Mickey potrays himself. I'd be embarrassed as hell. He has no skills, doesn't want to learn anything. He has no purpose.
He's the welfare guy of their family. Some think he's funny the way he acts, I think it's sad.

Everyone is always jealous of something they can't do or can't have. If you can build a better bike or get your own TV show, go do it otherwise STFU.
i AGREE 100%! I give them a lot of credit. They crack me up too.

I love to see ordinary people make a success of themselves. Nobody handed anyting to those guys. They deserve their success!!!

I don't care for custom bikes. They seem to get dated quickly and hardly ridden. A good Harley Davidson is timeless.

I like the choppers of the 60's & 70's. Living in Southern California, I'll see an occasional custom chopper but not as many as you'd think with all building thatthe T.V. shows promote. There's not a lot of quality in these bikesand the theme bikes built for the shows would be embarassing to ride on the street.

But it's still good T.V. and I'm home every Thursday night to watch!

Jealousy and Greed are ugly when they rear their ugly heads. This is the land of opportunity....While the complaining goes on about someone else's, you may be MISSING YOURS! GO AND CLAIM IT!

Happy Easter!

He is scritpted to act that way. Read OCC message boards he is a hit.

You have got to love this country. Only here can a bunch of at best mediocre cave men get together and build gaudy rolling widow makers and get fame and fortune doing so. I not jealous of them because I realize that success is not measured by the size of mt bank account but by the respect that i get from my peers. Money and fame do strange things to people and O.C.C. apparently is no exception. Any biz that will not cater to their customers is destined to failure,sooner or later but surely destined.
I can tell you their are many businesses that will all go full circle when something bigger and better comes along. It has happened time and time again. Customer service is not something that will keep all businesses in business. if thats the case all these mom and pop hardware stores would be booming.... Just not the case.

I wish them every success - I just don't like watching Sr. run around yelling "where the hell is Pauly" and the Pauly bitchin about his father.
I'd rather watch them build something and explain why they do what they do.
The yelling which is mostly scripted just like every other show on TV Boyds show, Unique whips, etc they all have success and all have yelling...

I do not care for their bikes, nor the show either. Too much yelling and NO professionalism at all, definately not my style. If they acted professional, did the work, explained things, and showed new products during the show.....then I MIGHT watch it.

It is like watching a Soap Opra with a motorcycle in the background. Hell no....I am not jealous either....their show just sucks.
