What happened to the “new” series of American Chopper?

The first episode aired on the 21st of March on 121 @ 19:00.

There have been no follow-up episodes, just the rebroadcasts of the “old” series..

There should have been Episode 2 on the 28th and Episode 3 on the 4th.

Hi,

Here is the response from the channel:

'American Chopper- the franchise has been ‘rebooted’ in the US which is probably why it’s showing as series 1, so it wasn’t incorrectly labelled as such, but I appreciate it could cause confusion for the viewers and we apologise for this. I believe it would be series 10 if it were added to the original series in numerical order. Episode 1 aired in isolation as part of our Motor Mega Week, and the good news is the rest of the episodes will begin airing in June- episode 2 will be Fri 1/6/18 @ 2000.'

Thanks - I wondered why it was labelled as series one.

Looking forward to June then!!

Hi greggb

Please find response from Discovery:

The American Chopper was rebooted in the US which is probably why it’s showing as series 1, as a result it wasn’t incorrectly labelled. We apologise for the confusion to our viewers.

The series should be showing as (series) 10 in the original numerical order. Episode 1 aired in isolation as part of our Motor Mega Week, and the good news is the rest of the episodes will begin airing in June- episode 2 will be Fri 1/6/18 @ 20h00.
