Aim the TV show?

[HarleyCruiser]

So when is AIMag going to put together a American Iron the TV show?
All the shows on now are infomercials, cleavage bolting on chrome, a bunch of people yelling at each other bashing down doors, showing us their Craftsman tools. The build off is gone, you guys could put on something better than this, you have the contacts, the advertisers, how bout it.
When can we look for it, give us a choice, so we dont have to watch Dr Phil.

Coincidently, we're in pre-production of an American Iron themed game show with Buzz and Chris serving as MCs. It's tentively called "Wheels of Fortune".

Hey guys, I’m serious here.
I can see it now, Buzz and Chris come riding down the road, Buzz on his crust pan and Chris on a chopper. They pull up to the camera and say, “Welcome to AIM the TV show. Today we are going to take you to __________ and _________ is going to show us how to _______.
Stick around and enjoy the ride.
They take off down the road with a bunch of us interneckers following. (Hey I’ve got to get in here someplace.) And we go down the road.
(Yes Adam you would be in there, right behind the two Talents and before me and oldrider;-)
Cut, insert, file clip of bikers going down road, over bridges, dirt roads.
Cut, Insert clip, Buzz alongside road kick starting everyone else hands on hips.
Cut insert location clip.
Action Buzz.
We are here at ________ after the break _________ is going to join us show us ____________ so stick around enjoy the ride.
Hey I just wrote the first five minute to the first commercial.
Every week you just insert new names and locations.
Hey I would watch it.
Have a segment of celebrates and their bike, do their favorite ride.
Course Buzz and Chris would both move to Hollywood, hang out with Jessie J and Sandra B. forget all us little people
You guys wouldn’t do that would you?

[oldhdrider]

Can we at least have a couple of playmates hold Umbrellas over Buzz and Chris, bend down when Buzz drops his keys?

[evoKENevo]

You want Chris to bend down when Buzz drops his keys ???????
Sorry...no playmates in family oriented operations...and there's already "ManFriday" to handle the umbrella thing !!!

OK, now you guys are really scarring me

If we ever got a TV show I'd never be able to go anywhere and have fun. I've watched the "famous" bikers and don't really need or want their lifestyle. But I do like the idea if I don't have to be on the camera.

And if I can't get my bike to start after a few kicks can we edit it out to look like the fisrt or second kick did it?

Buzz kidding aside, I do think it is a good idea, and you guys could pull it off.
That guy that does all the how to videos, I believe his name is Wolfgang, get him to be the talent, or someone like that.
You guys have the advertisers, that the main ingredient.
CMT is changing their format, they just started a biker build off, they might be interested. Pitch it to them.
That or any of the smaller channels are more than willing to run a spot if you bring your advertisers with you.
My stepson is a camera man, he did the Anna Nicole show, he says there is not a lot of difference between print media, and video.
It is about selling the adds.
He has a lot of contact at The Discovery Channel and knows a lot of Directors, Producers etc. that he would be more than willing to share if you are interested.
You guys could put on a A1 class show.
I think now is the right time.
And yea, we'll edit you kick starting your bike out, you can ride back in the back with us Interneckeres.

I'd watch AIM-TV if Michele Smith were involved. I had the chance to meet her and was totally impressed by her sincerity.

Personally I miss the build-off and wish they'd bring it back. But then it can't be as great without Indian Larry, Gary Woodford, Billy Lane,....

I think she is a beautiful girl, sure she is sincere, but, I feel she distracts from the show, and that the show has lost direction. It my opinion it has turned into a infomercial, and lost touch with their audience.
Personally I can not watch it while my wife or kids are in the house, it is too embarrassing.
And when I am by myself turn it off because of all the bolt on chrome.
The build off had the same problem they tried to be too dramatic, lost their audience.
Stick to the basics, show us bikes, and how to build them.
