Pawn Stars: anyone else hooked?

[Mermaid02]

I love Rick! I think the Old Man and Corey (aka big hoss) are JUST ALIKE! I can totally see the old man being such a know it all smart BLEEP when he was younger. Chumlee (whose real name is Austin btw) cracks me up. Nobody could be that stupid- could they?

I have met people in real life that make chumlee look like a college professor.

BTW I used to love watching Tennessee Tuxedo!

DH came across this last week and I watched my first episode with him last night. I am hooked...can't wait to see it again. I was actually talking to a co-worker about it today and she was telling me about American Pickers...we will have to check that one out too.

I like both shows. You get to see a lot of interesting stuff, even if a lot of the actual dialogue is scripted.

A bit of a spoiler, though... I came across a discussion board for Pawn Stars and everything you see on the show isn't exactly as it seems. Poeple who have gone there say there really isn't a lot of good stuff and they are pushing t-shirts and the like that promote the show. The place is smaller than it looks on TV and by most accounts, a dump and the staff is generally rude. Everyone says Chumlee is the only nice guy there. They are not always open 24 hours and when they're shooting they restrict customers they let in.

Still, it's a fun show and I still watch it.

I love the show...and Rick and big hoss are almost so annoying you can't help but watch...lol

The old man is the only normal one I think.

I love seeing the historic items that come into the shop.

The only problem is that when I ask others if they watch it, I tend to say porn stars instead of pawn...lol

I love Pawn Stars and American Pickers

We DVR pawn stars! Love it!

Now as far as American Pickers goes...when I'm giving the baby a bottle and want her to settle down and maybe fall asleep..I put American Pickers on demand and she falls asleep listening to them talk!

If you like these shows, don't miss the new one.. American Restoration with Rick Dale.. he's the dude in the cut-off shirts that fixes up the broken juke boxes and other crap that Rick and the Pawn Stars buy. It's a great show..

Oh great show! DH and I watched it this week! I think it was their first shows! The golf cart Rick Harrison had Rick Dale "restore" for 'Old Man' was awesome!
We love Pawn Stars (minus Chumlee ), American Pickers and now American Restoration!!!!!

I do kinda the same thing when I can't sleep.. except for me it's Bob Ross and his show "Joy of Painting" .. I have never seen him finish the painting! His soothing happy little trees and clouds always zonk me right out.

OMG! I LOVED that show...it was just so.....I dont know how to describe it. I used to love when he painted his happy little trees...HAHA

I'm constantly amazed at the rare items people bring in to pawn. I'm a fan of Pawn Stars! I record most shows. About the only negative I can think of is I keep thinking it must be uncomfortable being that large. I hate to say it, but that family is plump!
