American chopper is a repeat tonight (Drastic Steps, found here) and as usual, I am in repeats as well. But have no fear, American chopper is all new next week and, although there is as yet no program information, you can be sure I will be back with a new Weekly Rundown.
Meanwhile, if you missed the last episode, it was the PJD Muscle Car Special, and click here to read all about it.
The last time we saw Paul Senior (aside from every week on The Celebrity Apprentice) he was determined to get back into his son’s lives. Unfortunately he had the worst luck. When he went to Mikey’s are gallery he was not there and when he went to Paulie’s house he was out of the state.
So in the spirit of bashing Paul Senior, I re-present one of the most commented upon American Chopper blogs. As of this moment it has 179 comments, which you can read by clicking here and scrolling to the bottom of the post. Enjoy this post and keep those great comments coming. I’ll see you next week!
From June 13, 2011
NOTE:The Discovery Channel does not have any new episodes of American Chopper: Senior vs. Junior listed for at least the next two weeks. The Cadillac Build-Off was not listed as a season finale, and season 1 was twice as long as season 2 has been so far, so I think we can expect it back soon.
CADILLAC BUILD-OFF UPDATE:
“Congratulations Junior on winning the Viewer Poll!”
–Discovery.com
These are the stats as of 7pm Sunday:
TEAM SENIOR: 6, 198 members
TEAM JUNIOR: 92, 042 members
Those numbers only tell part of the story. The vote was reset after some fraudulent bidding was uncovered. At one point the vote was Senior 9,206 to Junior 227,091. That’s about 96% of the vote for Junior. Whatever the final tally, Senior got smoked by Paulie.
Junior’s bike is better by far, but I am sure that Senior lost a lot of votes because of his personality. So the obvious question is, what do we think of Paul Senior?
We already know the answer. Overwhelmingly, through all the comments left on this site, it is clear that no one is on his side. Generally, feelings range from sadness and pity to laughter to contempt. Senior had a hard life, no doubt. He battled addiction to become and stay clean and has admitted he wasn’t always there for his sons. Through Mikey we know all the damage he’s done to his family. Mikey is the most hurt, or at least the one who shows it the most. However, while he may have admitted all the pain he caused in the past, Senior refuses to see the damage he is still doing now.
I assume that Senior watches his own show, but I also guess that he doesn’t see anything wrong in what he says or how he acts. That’s too bad. For all that he says he loves his kids, he spends ten times as much effort insulting them and putting them down.
It is unlikely that Senior will ever take a hard look in the mirror and see anything wrong, so in the spirit of an intervention, in the very unlikely event he will ever read or hear of this, I present comments left on the site after last week’s post, the end of the Cadillac Build-Off.
He keeps blaming everybody else for his greed.
MAN UP PAUL SR.Sr. is an egotistical ass who has nothing good to say about Jr….always belittling him for his own gain
Get a grip and admit that you are the problem.Sr cares more about his dead dog than his own son and the only thing Sr can build is a f—-d up relationship with his sons.
Paul Sr is such a jackass.
Sr get over it and move on.Sr is a bitter man destined to be alone…Before he insults his son anymore he should look at his bank account and thank Jr for the designs that made him rich.
maybe it is time for him to admit he may have a problem.
All Senior did when Paul Jr., worked for him was belittle him in front of other employees and make him clean up their coffee cups.
Senior just wants to be greedy and have everyone think he is the sh#* and make all the money. He thinks he is entitled.
I think he is jealous of Jr.’s talent and creativity. I hope he gets therapy.
One day Senior will realize that he is going to die a lonely man, since none of his kids want anything to do with him, for the most part.
I feel Senior has some serious anger management issues
Sr and Jason sneaking into PJD…them cats need a reality check..someone shoulda shot some rock salt at those clowns!
He should get some professional help for his anger
He needs people who will immediately pick up his pencil when he drops it, in order to be secure in the knowledge that he’s the boss. Otherwise he lacks the confidence to be really sure that he is
PAUL SR WANTS A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS SONS BUT REFUSES TO STOP PUTTING THEM DOWN AND GIVES PAUL JR NO CREDIT FOR THE GROWTH OF THE COMPANY
Sr. lost a lot of Votes for being such a ASSHOLE-
-Sad- When a man thinks more of a dead dog than his boys !!
I could go back a lot farther, I’ve been doing this blog for a long time. It wouldn’t change anything. I believe I have only gotten two- yes, two- posts in support of Paul Senior. and they were both written by the same person. Senior is surrounded by people who rely on him for work. They kiss his ass and tell him what he wants to hear. Even worse is the fool Jason, who says that Paul Sr. is like a father to him. The only person who gets comments as bad as Senior? Jason Pohl. Frankly, they deserve each other.
I think Rick (he’s cool) should quit and go work for JR., the other guys can ride the sinking ship to the bottom of the ocean with Senior and that goofy looking kiss hiney designer guy with the jack o lantern face and that dorky laugh can pretend to be Seniors surrogate son while his face keeps gettin loaded up with Seniors poop.
Who wants a bike designed by Jason (kiss ass) Pohl or that midget sycophant – Mike Ammirati.
Anyway don’t get me started on Jason Pohl, I cant stand him, constantly brown nosing senior and then has the nerve to bad mouth junior all the time and act like he was what made OCC today. Need to get a grip to be frank.
cheesy bikes designed by a nerd in a little room with no
talent, except to sucker on to seniors rearJason and that baldhead cat whatever his name is are two of the worst brown noses that I’ve ever seen
Keep up the good comments!
Mr. Blog's Tepid Ride 
The only ” real ” exposure that I’ve had to the American Chopper bunch is when they did the voice – acting for their characters in an episode of the Mike Judge animated series
” King of the Hill “, w / Fox still shows in re – runs & also Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim block.
Other than occasional guest gigs like that, I never have been a big fan of Paul Sr. & Company. He seems like a tyrannical short – tempered bully who enjoys ** being ** a bully.

Oh yeah, I saw that. I need to work that in at some point.

I freakin’ LOVE ” KotH ” even though I’ve never been anywhere near TX so far, I don’t have any interest in propane or propane – related accesories ( 😉 ! ), & I’m not an anal – retentive Red Stater who keeps his butt cheeks clenched too tightly.
The episode with the American Chopper bunch had them instigating a riot, pretty much.

Sr. is a man, and someone with balls, jr is a boy and a mouth piece at that. And who complains constantly about some sort of consipacy against himself. He is self cetered and his ego is quite amazing. He has been babied all his life and what you see is what you get. He is NOT better than other people in the world and if the truth be know, he has some serious mental issues. Lose the ego and be a man to your father.
