THE PAUL TEUTUL SENIOR IMAGE MAKEOVER CONTINUES!

Last week on American Chopper:

Yesterday on The Celebrity Apprentice:

Sorry, it won’t play, just a screen cap.

WOW! What a funny guy! What a sense of humor! And I watched him all season, he is so nice to work with, Donald Trump loves him, and he really loves his sons!

Yeah, had  you never seen him before that is what you might think. So before we get into tonight’s show, let’s take a look at the real Paul Teutul Senior.

CHANGE OF HEART Part 1
PJD starts a build for Skill Tools while OCC begins a bike based on an Italian sports car. Then Junior makes a huge decision that could finally end his estrangement from Senior once and for all.

OCC has another anonymous client. The ugly Arabian Horse bike was for an anonymous client too. Jason explains that it is for a very high-profile person. Maybe yes maybe no. Can you prove this isn’t just some bike that Discovery is paying for? Plus Senior talked about how much Jason has improved. They are really trying to sell that guy to the fans. “He actually did measurements.” Wow.

PJD is building a bike for Skill tools 75th anniversary. They brought in, among other things, the original skill “worm drive” saw they first started with.  Amazingly, they design it without a computer and even more amazing, it is a team effort, not just what on Monkey Boy says goes.

Paulie is upset that his father thinks Paulie wants a business relationship. As he says, why would he want that? Been there, done that, failed miserably. Pretty much, he says, he just wants to go down to OCC and clear the air and figure out what’s what. “I’ve had it up to here, I really have, I can’t do this back and forth.”

After the commercial break OCC is building their anonymous donor bike and Jason (who misspelled his own name last week) is “working” on the bike. By working I mean being a fool and hanging off the frame. And Paulie has not walked in the front door.

Is he at PJD? He’s not on camera. Is he on his way to OCC? Is he- oh, wait, forget it, there he is.

Paulie confers with his consigliere Vinnie and they decide that the cameras have to be there so there is no chance of misinterpretation. He also says he is sick of the whole Senior vs. Junior thing which makes you wonder if he wants them to rename the show.

Back at OCC rick is making a seat panel. Is Paulie about to walk in? Is he on his way? Is he outside the door? The suspense is killing me.

Nope, he doesn’t show.

9:35. No invasion of OCC yet. but we do get a HILARIOUS prank where they put ink on some goggles and get a guy to wear it so he gets circles on his face. HA HA HA!

We’re back at OCC. Mike is working on a wheel. Is Paulie lurking around? Is the door going to fly open and Paulie swoop in?

No.

9:40. Paulie is still at PJD. All talk no action? No, the show is edited like crap, all tease, no show.

9:46. Paulie is working on the Skill bike. Who does he think he is? GO TO OCC! That’s what we want to see!

9:50 back at OCC. C’mon Paulie! You still have a few minutes left! 9:51, 9:52…

9:54. Paulie drivers right over to… Mikey’s “art” gallery. Why? To talk again about seeing his father. SHUT UP AND GO ALREADY!

10:02. Paulie walks right in and …no, he calls Senior and makes an appointment.

I give up. To be continued.

BTW, the show goes to 10:04 tonight. Wonderful.

CHANGE OF HEART PART 2 May 21, 2012
OCC finishes the Italian sports car bike and PJD unveils the Skil Bike. Then, Mikey leaves the show once and for all, and Junior goes to OCC to confront Senior face to face.

American Chopper: Senior vs. Junior: Malaysian Adventure

7 May

May 7, 2012

Tonight we get to see Senior in a dress.

MALAYSIAN ADVENTURE
Senior, Jason, Jim and Steve travel to Malaysia, where they not only unveil their latest bike, but also encounter wildlife, swim under waterfalls and barter at the central market.

Forgive my lack of enthusiasm but the show began with future OCC boss Jason Pohl taking us through the process of making the bike. Because he had so much to do with the fabrication and he knows all about how to build a bike, every step of the process. That’s it, right? Right?

So while we eagerly await seeing the OCC crew swim in a lake and look at trees, Mikey went to Paulie to tell him that he wants to quit the show. He’s doing it because he thinks it will help his relationship with his father. Will it? Doubtful. then Paulie reports to his wife, as usual.

So what happens in Malaysia?
The OCC crew ride a bus and look out the window!
Senior says he needs a nap!
They walk through the lobby of a hotel!
Commercial break! WOW, this looks great! Seriously, had this show not jumped the shark a dozen times over this would be it.

Jason: “Monkeys! Monkeys! Monkeys! Monkeys near the car! Monkeys! Monkeys! Monkeys!” That is an exact quote.

They ride scooters! On the other side of the road!
They handle tame snakes!

And I am not making a joke, this is real, at about 9:15 there is a kid in a clown suit who looks just like Obama. Seriously, I’m not getting political, the kid looked just like him.

They hike up a mountain!
They look at a waterfall! Why am I still watching this?
They take off their shirts and swim!
They look at fish. (Jason: “Look at these fish!”)
Jim bites off Jason’s sleeves! (You had to see it.)
They ride a boat!
Jason makes up a song: “There’s a monkey in the boat, a monkey in the boat, a monkey in the boat, hi ho a monkey in the boat.” Then a monkey took a dump on Jason’s seat and Jason threw the feces back at the monkey. NOTE TO READERS: INSERT YOUR OWN JOKE HERE.
They pet stingrays! Big deal. I did that at the Coney Island Aquarium when I was four. (Jason: “Let’s set them free!” Senior: “Stop being stupid.”)
They put a horse shoe crab on Jim’s head!
They ride on more boats!
They ride a cable car! Is this over yet?
Jason misspelled his own name! “JASN.” Are you nothing a pattern here? Senior: “I don’t know if he’s suffering from lack of oxygen ’cause most o  the time he hasn’t made any sense.”
They shop at a local market!

And oh yeah, they unveil the bike.

THE HIGHLIGHT! Senior puts on a dress, a nice black and purple floral number. ANYONE HAVE A SCREEN CAP? SEND IT TO ME!

NEXT WEEK:
CHANGE OF HEART May 14, 2012
