I wish them both the best of luck on their future endeavors. Maybe TLC will pick up the show again lol.

I started watching it again about a year ago. I won't miss it though. However, I hope that Discovery doesn't replace it with another reality series where they film people doing their job.

I'll take this show anyday of the week over that truly dreadful here comes honey boo boo (God I hated that show).
I Hope Velocity picks up the reruns of both american chopper & american chopper junior vs. senior.

I Also hope this show goes on blu ray, I Would be beautiful to see it in HD.

I have not watched that show in a while, I liked it when it first started

I still like the show. I actually seen the first episode back in 2002 and was hooked for years.

This show will go down in tv history as not only one of the best reality shows ever made, but also one of the best shows of the 21st century, they deserve that honor and I Will miss them.

I think this is going to drastically hurt both companies, especially PJD. A lot of these bikes were for companies probably on the premise that they appear on TV (free advertising). I doubt you'll see Geico, Window World, Loopster, etc. buying bikes with no TV show.

I really loved the show early on, but it kinda started to get my ass tired after a while. I haven't seen it in years. Honestly, I thought it was cancelled a while ago.

A dysfunctional biker family cursing at each other is way too high class for TLC nowadays. Seriously, have you caught a glimpse of some of the stuff on TLC lately? Somewhere along the line, the "learning" channel turned into TLMIQC.

Junkyard Wars was awesome. It amazes me what guys with a little ingenuity and know-how can build out of junk. But now, it's all about Honey Boo Boo. (And no, I don't watch it...I only know about it from the South Park parody).

Have you ever seen Rocket City Rednecks?

Ditto. When it came to the point where the main theme of the show was father and son(s) being pissed off at each other (which was several years ago), they lost me.

Honey Boo Boo was trash and still is trash and could never hold a candle to american chopper and other great ones.

even though the show went downhill when vinnie and cody left.
