The Devil's Ride

Watching the first Episode, I kept waiting for Ashton Kutcher to jump out and proclaim the world just got punk'd for watching this show.

Brought to you by the production company of Eric Bischoff (Professional Wrestling) and Jason Hervey (Older brother on The Wonder years), it looks like someone decided to cash in on the popularity of FX's "Sons of Anarchy" by doing a reality show on a Motorcycle Club (MC).

The problem is that most legit MC's would never allow camera's to follow them around. What happens in the club, stays in the club. So after searching for a club willing to expose their life on television, the production company settled on the Laffing Devils MC, a fairly new club of only 5 years.

The first episode introduced a bunch of cliché'd bikers. Swarthy men with tattoo's that claim they don't fit in anywhere else in the world. It also shows their "old ladies", girlfriends and wives of the club members.

The show seems forced, as if the MC is desperately trying to prove they are just as mean as other "1%" MC's. But it's painfully obvious that nobody around them cares who they are.

I was reminded of Chickenhawk from Foghorn and Chickenhawk. A little bird proclaiming he's a big mean chickenhawk, when it's painfully obvious he's just a tiny nothing.

For a reality show to succeed, it must have people that behave to either extremes. Either completely hated or completely loved. The members of the Laffing Devils MC are simply bland and interchangeable.

This show won't last.

These guys should be embarrassed to even consider themselves as a motorcycle club not to mention being on national TV and showing everyone how much of a joke they really are. These guys try to act big and bad but you can clearly tell by watching them that they are all talk. There has never been a TV crew to follow members of The Hells Angels, Bandidos, Pagans or the Mongols because they are not dumb and do not want the public to know so much information about their motorcycle club. I will be really surprised if the Discovery Channel gives these guys a 2nd season but if they do get a 2nd one then their must be a lot of gullible people out there that would find anything exciting that they watch on TV.

Do yourself a favor and do not even watch it to see how dumb it is because it's not worth it.

I've read ALL these comments.And honestly the comments are more lame than the show.I watch T.V for Entertainment purposes. I'll say it again Entertainment purposes.Personally, I was entertained, and I don't give a damned what any of you people think about that.Apparently, 1.2 million other people were also Entertained as well.That's WHY the show received such high ratings.If they had another similar show on the air I'd watch that one as well,because I want to be Entertained.It doesn't matter how true to real life outlaw motorcyclists are compared to this show, who knows, maybe the real life guys would be Boring as hell. I enjoyed the show.However,it is true things like Mad Max being given directions to Sin Mobs clubhouse when we all know Snubz had already been their dozens of times Was lame.As well as many other little things like that were

laughable.However,it was something to keep the show going for the 1.2 million viewers who did seem to enjoy it.I'll say it again because we were Entertained! Kudos to the writers,producers, directors and yes even the actors who played their parts perfectly.They Entertained us! So to the creators and everyone who took part in making this reality show a hit,Thank you, you guys did a great job and deserve some praise instead of all this negative talk that you seem to be getting.Give us another one with The Sin Mob taking on another club.You'd get great reviews again I'm sure.Heck, give us anything where a couple of rival motorcycles clubs were trying to rid one of the other and I'd almost guarantee you,you would have another Hit Series!!.

If you are into high quality shows, and expect accurate depictions of what is being advertised, this is NOT for you. Also, if your interests include documentaries about criminal organizations and true crime events, you will be disappointed by this show.

After finding an article online about a "twitter beef" between Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter, and one of these guys from the "Laffing Devils MC", I got extremely excited! My bf and I had just finished watching all SOA episodes, and I was going through withdrawal. Naturally, when I read about some "hard ass" guy threatening to take Jax's white sneakers (which now sounds ridiculous), all I could do was run home to watch these true life MC guys. I blame myself. I work w gang members and other individuals in a forensic setting, and therefore have a pretty good understanding of how these types of organizations work. Why did I think a real MC club would allow cameras? WHY DID I DO THIS TO MYSELF?! I think the real heart breaker was that I didn't expect it. If you watch any other reality TV shows, you know what you're getting; nobody expects deep insight from the Kardashian's, or to learn social skills from the Jersey Shore people. Again, my fault.

I came to IMDb looking for reviews to make sure I wasn't crazy, and sure enough, the previous reviews do a great job explaining why it's so awful. In this show, you will find no-that-cool guys (although I agree with the guy who gave them 3 stars just for riding bikes), with terrible acting skills, and a horrifying script (because yes, it IS scripted). If you decide to watch, keep your expectations very, very low.

The only positive in this show is that it allows us to follow the most pitiful gang since the Orphans from the movie Warriors. It is almost like the Orphans actually existed! White Boi, and Diesel (running on fumes) and whatever...how tough are you when you let the camera follow you around? I am not in a MC...but I still do stuff I don't want the govt to know about. One thing I don't want anyone to know about is that I watched this show (and yet, I posted a review!). This show is laughable and as about real as Amish Mafia. Discovery should be ashamed! Perhaps they should lose their broadcasting license. This is worse and funnier than "mama's family." Pathetic. Guys, turn in your motorcycles, and get yourself a scooter. You don't deserve more than that.
