STORAGE WARS, NEW EPISODES (A&E)

storage-wars-cast2
I confess: I love to watch Storage Wars. I enjoy the quirky characters. But when the door goes up on those storage units, I’m just as eager as any of the bidders to see what’s in there! I know there have been allegations that some of the units were “salted” with collectibles to increase the “Wow Factor.” No matter. I’m still addicted to the thrill of the hunt and these new episodes that start tonight look great! Do you enjoy Storage Wars as much as I do?

    I just don’ t watch enough TV. Never seen this, or DUCK DYNASTY or HONEY BOO BOO and hence, I can’t hold an intelligent conversation with anybody.

    But what about Hollywood Hillbillies, Dan? I didn’t even know that show existed until seeing countless promos while watching the Bomb Girls marathon on Reelz.

    Phil has watched it but I prefer my TV scripted. Have never really gotten into any reality shows except the first year of THE AMAZING RACE.

    I kinda gave up on this last year. I used to enjoy it, even though I assumed much of the show was scripted and the “treasures” were added to the units after they were opened. I thought I’d seen Barry in another show where he travels around looking at other people’s finds–sort of like American Pickers.

    What ever happened to Dave “Yup”?

      Deb, Dave Hester was fired by the STORAGE WARS producers. Hester is suing. Barry is my favorite character, but he seems to be on the outs with the STORAGE WAR team, too.

    Ah, the thrill of the hunt!

    That’s why I miss actual physical booking. Picking a copy out of Amazon or ABE just isn’t the same.

    It’s nice to be able to fill in a collection but Maggie or Don Sandstrom could attest to my excitement when I stumbled over a long-elusive copy of a Man from UNCLE novelization.

    Bet they don’t find that kinda stuff in the storage units.

      Beth, I know exactly what you experienced when you found that MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. novelization. Last week I found a copy of BETHANY’S SIN by Robert McCammon that I’ve been looking for for decades! What a thrill!

    I’m a big fan of this show (and Brandi) and the others like it. I even went to our local storage place one time to see if there was anything worthwhile. There wasn’t, for me, but a few people were serious bidders and obviously knew each other. I have to say I liked the original cast of Storage Wars better than some of the newer people, especially that doughboy with the hot wife. What does she see in him?

    Barry had a show that, as far as I can tell, ran for three episodes. I like him, but it stunk on ice. I hope it’s true that he’s back with SW again.
