American Pickers

On History channel. Just watching for the 1st time. There's this guy who owns a farm and he like bought buildings and transplanted them to his farm. He has an old White Castle, an old style gas station, an old Church, a garage with 35 old cars, a general store. This is the coolest thing I've seen on TV this year. I'm not even joking you have to see this, the episode is "white castle on the farm"

if anyone watches this tell me it's not awesome, he's got like a whole town from the 40s on his farm.

same here, though Pawn Stars seems more scripted than it had been from what i remember. Either way, still entertaining.

good shows. its been on DVR since they had the promos.

the only thing with american pickers is that i would like to see when they sell the items. right now they just show you a "profit" but they dont say where the value comes from. Would like to see them get burnt a little more often on bad buys. it is impossible that they dont make mistakes. At least Pawn Shop they have shown a few times they got burnt with a bad buy.

I just noticed sometimes when they give the values it will say the sold price or it will say valued. Last nights episode was great when they showed them getting rejected by people.

yeah, loved the guy that said "you are interrupting me" and one other psycho-type comment. What a nut.
