Pretty fake drama, but I can't help but watch anything with motorcycles.

Scripted drama, tight deadlines, no profits.
But the bikes are cool popcorn

I think that guy is dramatic by himself.  I'm not so sure it's scripted.  Anyway, I've set the dvr to record it.

yeah, he's a fruit loop of the exact flavour desired by reality tv producers.  unstable, exaggerating, demanding, delusional, dramatic, etc.

I'm watching. Looks like there's some added drama, but the personalities seem real.

I work with a couple of SW engineers like that. We should do a reality show!

I've watched all three episodes and I like it, but I've taken bikes to crusty guys that hold onto them for 6 months without working on them before and it sucks if you're the customer.

Make as much fun of the guy as ya want.  Truth is he is getting a big paycheck and he may be just savvy enough to know what reality TV producers like.

I once called Ripleys Believe it or Not and got a paying gig a day later.  It is all about knowing your market and "fruitloop" is getting paid!
