American Chopper @ Discovery-HD, the repeat channel

I'm wondering, on the normal non-HD Discovery i see brand new episodes
of AC for a while now. On Discovery-HD however, they keep repeating, repeating and repeating the same let's say 15 episodes for a whole year now.

And not even talking about the car program "Rides". Holy ****, how much they've repeated the same let's say 10 episodes is not even funny anymore. That the guys behind Discovery-HD aren't sick and tired of their own programming is beyond me.

Re: American Chopper @ Discovery-HD, the repeat channel

I must admit to being an American Chopper fan. As a Harley owner it would be rude not to be!

So I can't help but agree that it would be nice to see the new series in HD. I enjoyed watching the old episodes again in HD, but the time has come for some new stuff now!

Yep, me too!

But I guess he won't miss being in the middle of Paul Snr's and Paul Jnr's bust ups!

Wow, i didn't knew he left.

I'm not surprised tough. Each year Sr's and Jr's (and Mikey's) houses and cars got bigger and bigger, except Vinnie's. Looks
like they didn't want to pay him what he deserves.

I still can't believe they allowed Vinnie to leave. It will be very interesting to see how Paul junior manages on the next series.

Re: American Chopper @ Discovery-HD, the repeat channel

Btw, do you guys have in England also that American Chopper preview every 15 minutes on Discovery-HD? Here
in Holland we have a preview/trailer (every 15 minutes, 240 times a day) with

"the boys are back with a brand new serie, weekdays at 3pm"

I see this preview for at least 6 months now, but haven't seen any new episode
for the last whole year.
