Bike shop creating new TV show

Ever since the first piece of equipment was unpacked at the V-Force Customs bike shop last year, Vinnie DiMartino and Cody Connelly have been capturing their actions on tape.

Smart...VERY smart. They seem to have known one day they'd be replacing the old Walrus. Now, if Vinnie would hire Jr & Mikie all obstructions to a really good show would be gone and so would the old man!

[DynoD]

I agree. I don't know that they need Jr. and Mikie though. Those two both take away from the show being about BIKES, and building bikes is what this show will be about.

[tequilaguy3]

I disagree with Dyno D, Mikie and Jr added some flair and comic relief to an otherwise mundane show. You need more than a builder, you need the personalities.

LOL
Vin went away and started his own Bike Shop. Cody then followed and joined Vinnie and is working with him at the new place. Cody is sueing the Teutels and the Program as he was not paid for all of the time he was on the air. So he has filed a law suit for back pay. I think there is more than that to it though. I am sure there is bad blood in it also

I remember Vinnie not being very happy with Junior as he was always complaining how Junior had left him to do all of the work and how Junior would come in a then leave and how Junior was always on the phone. So Unless Junior and Mike have grown up and want to do what Senior expected of them in the first place. Then Vinnie will be leaving that one also/Or asking them to leave his shop, is more correct as it will be his shop.
All senior ever expected is that they work for the pay they were getting.

I think you are wrong. Everybody needs to understand that Vinnie and Junior were not on the same level. In a big car or bike shop, the designer/lead builder, does not work on projects start to end. He has people to do that for him. In this case, it was Vinnie.

I Know For a Fact Exactly what Vinnie Did DO a web search and read it your self. If you can not find it let me know I will lead you to it. It was a very interesting read.
Junior Level Huh?

In my opinion I think the vast majority of the viewing audience could care less about the building of the bike...I know I did not...it was the personalities that drove American Chopper...

Yes, Arlen Ness and others in my opinion can build a better bike but I do not care about that...I want to be entertained...if I want to see a better build bike or how to I will just watch a PBS channel

Vinnie would not hire Junior unless Junior were to make sure he comes to work on time and all of the crap that Vinnie was complaining about at the end of Vinnies stay at OCC. Mikie on the other hand Vinnie would hire.

[johnny bollocks]

listen the show is finished lost all its attraction now all we are seeing is the self destruction of a family with too many egos to cope with fame and money but whilst watching the seimons bike episode i couldnt help thinking that had jnr been building that bike he would have been taking pelters from the old fella about how long its taking and while im on the soapbox that jim quinn and pooley is it me or do they get on your tits or what and that manager guy

[OCC Fan]

I just watched Senior criticize his two sons. What a pathetic joke for a father. I will never watch the OCC show again until TLC creates a show for Mikie and Junior and I will watch it again.

Hey maybe SR could hire Jon Gosslen..He seems to have some time on his hands..LOL
