I never saw this show, but I always assumed it was about guitar players. No joke.
One of the few shows on TV that was not (overtly) Anti-American.
Been watching that show for a long time. No great loss IMO.
I suspect fritz would beat his own grandmother out of a quarter if he thought he could get away with it.
There’s always two sides, but Mike probably knows he’s the heart of the show, he feels like he made his friend Frank some money, and now he wants his brother to get more of a payday and maybe some fame. He probably sees it as helping take care of his nieces too.
The show is obviously fake. Antiques roadshow is more interesting since you see more items and they are described.
Frank has earned a boatload of money from that program, so he can cry me a river. Not sure how much, but Pawn Stars were each getting 25K per episode which is not bad.
More about picking antiques and collectables although I have seen a few very nice vintage guitars discovered on the show
Doesn’t belong on the History Channel. Though I admit most shows on the History Channel don’t belong there ! History I guess is too boring to support a profitable audience.
I liked it better when it was “The Hitler Channel”.
Newsflash to all FReepers!!!
Reality TV is scripted.
Shame, Great show. Just not the same without Frank.
It was watchable back when the history channel actually covered history.
I don’t even check anymore.
I watch real picker shows on YouTube. Buy a Tupperware lid at a yard sale for fifty cents, sell it on eBay for $9.99. You just have to know which ones to buy.
“most shows on the History Channel”
You got that right and when they do show actual history it’s usually skewed and outright biased.
Yeah, fake OBVIOUSLY
Being on the road so much and with Crohn’s Disease was likely a strain on filming different episodes featuring Frank. I’m guessing those complications were part of the strain between the two.
It did always seem, at least in Camera, that Mike was more the critical one toward Frank than the other way around.
I like Danielle - her personality - but I don’t like watching her. I have a mental problem when it comes to extensive tatoos; for me it’s more than just a “turn off”. It’s a prejudice of mine. I am entitled to it.
Ridiculous what they pay for items. Now everybody thinks they can get $250 for a broken lamp from the 1920s.
Mike is pretty obnoxious. Wore out his welcome on my TV a few years ago.
I used to see Mike when I met a friend for lunch at Thayer’s in Joliet. He seemed to always keep to himself, very quiet, never with anyone.
