American Chopper.
Back when they were a small operation and it was just the Teutels, Vinnie, and Rick, it was a fun, creative, and different show. And every bike was unique and representative of its client.
Now with seemingly hundreds of employees, huge new mega-acre showroom, and production bikes, it's just an hour-long commercial about a corporation churning out mediocre products with little individuality. Their custom bikes have become production bikes - there's very little customization done to make the bikes unique because time is money. Although I agree they're a great American success story, I no longer care about the Teutuls - they've been too affected by all the money they've made.
Like most celebrities, they got a lucky break - it's the only thing that distinguishes them from hundreds of other custom bike builders with equal or greater talent who will never enjoy the same success.
