Monster Arcade Pick on American Pickers Next Week

[pookdolie]

operation repo admits they are staged using actors, its in the credits.

More often than not, fans of reality TV I've run into don't like to consider that they might be staged. I can enjoy them without caring.

I always thought Cheaters was done pretty well until the episode where the host got "attacked".

 

[kcfreeloader]

Exactly! My wife knows they are fake but always gets POed when i point it out. I can enjoy them either way. My favorite TV show ever was Trailer Park Boys. Basically a fake reality show. Loved Waiting For Guffman, Best in Show, a Mighty Wind, This is Spinal Tap, all fake documentaries. Reality shows are so much better when they have better writers.

And now the show features 75% more Chumlee. Almost every scene no matter who is doing the negotiating, Chumlee is standing next to them to make stupid comments.

Chumlee (and Rick) were on Top Gear the other night. They asked him what his daily driver was.....he replied, a Maserati!....and I'm pretty sure he wasn't joking. How much does that pawn shop pay an hour??

Least bullshitted up fake-ass show is American Restoration.

I really like that show because I like to restore stuff (just started working on a 1950's Coke cooler) but if you go on their website, most of the stuff the Supposedly sold on the show is available to buy.

They showed the Pac in the window at the first place but didn't mention it I couldn't believed they completely ignored the Playboy that was sitting next to the Charlies Angels.

Actually he said a maserati and a range rover. And rick mentioned spending $100g fixing a car from himself. I'd say they hit the pawn shop jackpot.

And speaking of fake shows *cough* top gear *cough*
love the show (both versions) but sometimes. Well yeah.

Yeah Ali is worth $1000-$1500 fixed up! Good luck with that! OMG I wanted to reach through the set and smack them two! lol

There was a Playboy, Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon....and they pick those to and to boot the Ali had no displays! I'm thinking he's in over his head more than he thinks....

The only thing they maybe know about is stupid signs...

I was convinced when they bought that "homemade" Stanley Cup turd game...

I was thinking the same thing, $175 for SS pins ain't a bad price!

 

[Raab]

Anyone have a link to the episode?

So have we come to a conclusion on whether Danielle is hot or not? I'm lost.

American Pickers gets huge ratings, it's almost in the top ten of all shows on television.

Incredible.

Incidentally, there is another pickers show coming out called "Picker Sisters"....

 

[Robotron Jon]

I thought the show last night was okay, but clearly the pickers don't know much about pinball. They thought that hockey game was valuable?....
