Storage Wars

Storage Wars is about buyers who buy storage units of people who couldn't afford to keep them or left them from any other reason.

the "rules of the show are :

1. each week 3 of 4 buyers will by unit, without seeing what's in them, beside how they look from the outside.

2. 1 will go home without buying anything.

3. they will all find some antiques, or valuable collectables, that were not expected to be find in the unit.

4. then they immediately get appraisal from an expert. usually that will find out that the finding worth a lot.

5. for the other items they find, they will appraisal them by themselves :

usually they will expect a profit that is 2 times , from the real price that they will sell it (if they sell it at all).

players : 2 typical rednecks (father + son), a weird collector (the shows clown), the young married couple (not really married), and the veteran mogul (the bad guy). there are more players but they are less significant.

the mvps : the collector : barry and the mogul : dave.

season 1 - 3 : all player present (the best years). season 4 - 5 (most of 5) the mogul left and was replaced by a fat German dude and is dumb wife. season 5 - the collector left to his own show - without the best players the show lost its fun and entertainment factor.

pro & cons : + entertainment and fun : season 1-3. - "salting" - the production is WWF the entire show take the credibility out of the reality.

I started watching this when Barry (the collector) was still part of it, he had a unique style and humour. But since he is retired it lost the majority of it's flair. But the real reason that I give such a low rating is tge fact that all is fake, the investors are indeed actors. What annoyed me even more, how stupid does the History channel think the average viewer is? Most telling example: Mary from the spin off (Storage Wars Texas) is now only to see on the main show which is in California. Even as a European I know that it takes almost 24h by car from Texas to California? Who would do that? The gasoline would eat up all the profit. At the same time she is no longer attending auctions in her home state Texas. She was obviously promoted and the fact that she lives in Texas is as real as everything else. It's an insult to the human brain.

I am so tired of watching the same scenario over and over it's a different locker but same scenario oh you gotta get this checked out it's the one thing that was planted in there and I freaking hate Dave he should be kicked out of there yup.

Awesome freaking show! The show is great and intriguing before you get to know the characters. Once you know the characters the show gets even better! They get to know each other and they start hating each other. Awesome. I could watch this show all day. I actually have. I personally like everyone except Mr. Hester. Although he definitely is the smartest of the bunch. It's awesome to see something that you would think doesn't costs a penny turn out to be something super expensive. Overall I'd say its a darn good show. Go into it with a positive attitude and I think you will thoroughly it's a show for all ages. 9/10 almost perfect but I think they might have to change up the lineup soon and get a new cast.

Whenever I see the overbearing obnoxious Dave Hester on the show I turn it off. I cannot stand him ruining and otherwise good shows.
