TLC, American and Monsters
I mean the American Choppers,American Hotrod,Monster Garage,and Monster House of course
Any one watching any of these?I think I like hotrod the best,but Chopper comes in a close second.Boyd Cottingtons crew turns out some beautiful work.

I'm a big fan - my favorite is American Chopper, followed by Monster House & Monster Garage.
Coddington & crew do great work, but "Hotrod" just doesn't entertain like the others do.
Southern Chopper was pretty good, hope they make more episodes...
BTW, although I like Monster Garage, I don't think much of Jesse James!!! errr... Surreal, those commercials feature Paul, Paul Jr, and Mikey from Orange County Choppers... |

I'm waiting to catch OCC the second time around tonight.I missed the first round
I guess since I'm not a real Bike Nut,and I am an old gearhead would explain my attraction to Hotrod.Monster Garage is cool, but I really appreciate the quality and detaikl that goes into Hotrod.Awesome work they do.
I like to watch Paul Sr ,ad Jr square off though,pretty funny most of the time,and poor Vinnie catches the crap all the time.Of course who is gonna argue with Paul Sr,the guy has legs attached to his shoulders

We just watched Monster Garage tonight, That was a kick arse 4wheeler they built, however jessie drove that rig way to hard, Its a shame he busted it up like that.
American Chopper neither one of us like at all. They cus way to much from the beginning of the show and gets worse to the end. ugh!
Saw monster house first time tonight. it was okay, was on the futeristic house.
We like the mythbusters the best tho. That always makes us laugh!

I don't miss an episode of American Chopper. Granted, the show gets to be more and more of a put on as they go along, but I like the bikes.
American Hotrod seems completely staged, to me. I like Coddington's work, but he was a big name way before they ever made a show about his shop.
Monster Garage is OK. I used to really admire Jesse...the documentary they did on him a few years back was awesome, and I think it (actually, there were two of them) was what sparked the recent motorcycle/chopper boom, and paved the way for these other shows. But it seems that he's become quite the egotist. Or maybe he just was all along.
If you get the chance, catch the Great Biker Buildoff final between Billy Lane and Indian Larry... talk about some awesome motorcycles.

I saw the Great Biker Buildoff with Billy Lane but he went up against some other guy wasn't Indian Larry. This was awhile ago... maybe a good 6 months ago when it first started. He won with his hand made old school chopper rather than the new style. It was the one show where Billy faced the guy who built the bike for his daughter. Can't remember who that guy was. I know Billy won though...
