It has run it's course I only watched sparingly the last few years.  They have more drama than actual bike building.  Funny how the fame has torn this family apart.

Back in the day when that show first started, I thought Senior was hot.  Seriously hot.  Big, strong, chopper riding bad boy + older man + tons of money = wow.  Never had a thing for Junior - he was just a punk ass - talented, but a punk ass. And not cute enough to overcome it.

Hadn't watched it in several years.  But I caught the end of one episode a few weeks ago.  Paul Sr. looked OLD.  I know he is not a spring chicken, but this time he LOOKED old.  Muscles flabby, skin flabby, serious bags under the eyes.  Obviously a lot of stress.

No more hotness.

Family in-fighting will do that to you.

The show hasn't been the same since Vinnie and Cody left.

yet another show that jumped the shark.

Trivia question.

Where did the term "jump the shark" come from?

Happy Days. This episode was the final nail in that horrid show's coffin.

The mortal blow occurred a few years earlier when he jumped the garbage cans and crashed into Arnold's fried chicken stand. The show was in a death spiral after that one.

You sir are correct.  I remember watching the garbage can episode as a kid.

They were the only ones with any talent on the show...
