Let's face it, the show probably had run it's course topic-wise; how many more theme motorcycles could be built that would be noticeable?; how many more ways could they continue to develop the lack of chemistry between father and son?; were they having problems finding new sponsors for the program?; was the show becoming unprofitable because of the (apparently) high salaries paid to the talent?, and the list goes on....

I'd like to see the syndication agreement; anyone wanna venture a bet as to which cable networks and local broadcast affiliates/national networks pick(s) up the show??

I wonder if the residuals will help the employees, too??

Well of course Junior has a beautiful wife.  That is like the one thing he has done right.

 I guess it depends if they had to join some union like SAG or some organization related to TV actors.

I never gave that a thought, I wonder if they all have SAG cards??  Enquiring minds want to know!

As far as I know, SAG doesn't represent 'reality tv' stars. That is one way that the producers save money, they don't have to pay scale rates to the so called stars.

I know from experience that being associated with a tv show or film does not automatically get you a SAG or Union card. I've worked behind the scenes on 3 films and 2 tv shows and I couldn't even get my name in the credits. (industry politics)

 I like Sr's house better. It's got it's own car museum, repair shop, fishing pond, and a petting zoo.

Compare them yourself in Google Maps....

When you got no real life friends you need a zoo to be your best friends and family.

I can handle joking around like mookie did, but when it became violent harassment, that became a different story

It went beyond Mookie, into the obscene and then it crossed the line (southbound in the northbound lane, batsh*t nutz) and went to VERY personal attacks. Anyone who might think that PAMD overreacted by locking the forum would be wrong. Personal info was at risk, and PAMD was right on top of it to keep it under control. On behalf of us all, thank you.

I don't know what set him off, but somebody wasn't taking their meds. confuse

When we had our housewarming party, someone left a can of Foster's behind. With all the parties we've had in the 3 years since, that can is still sitting in the fridge. My brother-in-law and I keep daring each other to drink it, but neither of us has the nerve. It's worse than the Milwaukee's Best that I use for camp beer.

 LOL, wow, you can see those PJD decals from frickin space.

 

Arrogance is what Jr needs to lose. Thats a great property that OCC bought for Jr though. Half the reason he should have appreciated what he had. Its clear he never will appreciate what he has, and Rachael will be next at some point.

Here's another article that plays off of the original EW article. Nothing new, but a sideways view of the news.

Coxie:"good work, even mookie wasn't as nasty as PG"

 

I totally missed what went on.  I am guessing that PG was mean or something.  Me and him went back and forth a few times, but it was okay.  I guess it changed somehow.

 Yep PAMD did a great job and was left with no choice but to do what he did. Mookie never went to the level of PG.

At first i was like i hope Pam ain't deleted everything just when the forum was starting to look alittle decent. Then i signed in and seen it was all their with a few adjustments kudos. Whoever got time to make multiples sn's using the same ip is probably some old fat nobody who got no life smh.

Anyways, the show is almost over now what? do we watch jungle gold, gold rush, deadliest catch, bering sea gold and e.t.c? It's funny the url of this site and the show is over. I don't think none of us expected it to end so quickly and the way it did. It was trending on twitter and made cnn,msnbc, and few other news.

Which one of you tightwads is buying the beer, and I don't want that crap from Australia!  Man, that was a b!tch!  Play it safe, change all of your passwords if you aren't running a good firewall, as it appears that he may have attempted to at least ping-back...

I'm surprised that there still hasn't been a statement from OCC.

Carlos must be rethinking his investment in the Cafe right about now.

As I told ElGuapo once, I refuse to drink anything that must be sterilized with a lime before drinking. I prefer dark heavy beers, something I can make a meal out of. If it can't be used to make bread, it isn't beer.

All this beer talk reminds me of the memorable Dennis Hopper line in the movie "Blue Velvet"

My Uncles used to drink PBR until they 'upgraded' to Milwaukee's Best. I really have no idea how I ended up with better tastes than my relatives. My old man and his family drink Coors Light. It's really sad.

Jeez, only ElGuapo would ask that, after seeing exactly what kind of arrogant jizzbag Piligian is on the last episode. You have to admit that after kissing Senior's ass for so long, Piligian's must seem like a newly-plucked rosebud indeed. I'll bet he gets it waxed, where Senior prefers the "let it grow" camp.

 First article said it ends with the buildoff. Since jr was fired already, there cant really be any adjustments for a teary goodbye episode. I think jr's chances of winning again are straight down the tubes with the show being dead. Apparently Jesse is tweeting that his bike is not finsihed, at least thats what gas monkey is posting on their facebook, that he is the only one past the nov 6 deadline. 

 

Didnt jr just tweet that his build off bike was finished last week? he was late too.

It doesn't surprise me that Jesse was late, he barely made it last time. He had to call in help from the speed shop at the last minute to complete it. Jr's tweet last week just said that his bike was finished, it didn't say when it was completed, so he may not have gone over time.

Maybe Discovery got rid of AC to make room for Jesse's show to get viewers. If they eliminate the show viewer's got no choice to be desperate to watch Gas Monkey and Outlaw Garage.

That would be bad planning on their part though, since Outlaw Garage is airing on a limited schedule until more episodes are filmed, and Fast and Loud is on a break while they film new episodes for a full season. After the pilot episode, Discovery only contracted for 4 more episodes (2 of which have aired), I haven't heard if more episodes have been green lit.

Jake i don't think none of us figured the show would be cancelled in such short notice. I was giving it 1 or 2 more seasons atleast! That's why Ben took down the forums so quick that bastard lol. It's bad planning i do agree. But, if you notice Discovery shows never really last that long. So they cross characters with other successful shows to get noticed. Like pawnstars, american pickers meeting at sturgis.

Besides, just because I liked AC does not mean I will be forced to watch Outlaw Garage or Fast&Loud. There are lots of other things on TV to watch.

Tuesday night on the Science channel is Fringe, from the beginning. :D
