It may have been technically about motorcycles, but American Chopper has to be at the top of the list. It was the progenitor of every one of the terrible, formulaic, faux-reality, artificial-deadline-y, overdramatized custom car shop shows that followed, from American Hot Rod all the way to Counting Cars and every…

It’s a shame this article attracted so many illiterate people. I think you me and maybe two others actually read it.
