More TV Shows

Hi, before I continue my list of my favorite TV shows I just want to say sorry for neglecting you I'll explain that in my next though now it's TV time!

4. Auction Kings
A show about a family run auction house

not the whole cast

Paul Brown:

The owner of the shop, who keeps things running smoothly as best he can.

Cindy Shook

Cindy inventories every single item in the shop... In addition she also is the only girl you she much of on the show.

Jon Hammond

Jon's the new guy so he handles lots of jobs... that other people don't want to do.

Delfino Ramos

He's the Mr. Fix-it of the team he can fix anything even if he's never seen it before.

We also will sometimes see Paul's son Elijah helping out.  He's learning the business but wants to be a musician.

5. Storage Wars
A show about four guys who go around to storage unit auctions and buy them to resell them.

I know great picture of the cast right?

that's better

Barry Weiss
The oldest most experienced of the bunch doesn't buy for quantity but for quality.  He's a collector who hopes to finds just a few great items.  He's also pretty goofy at times.

Jarrod and Brandi Shultz
The youngest of the bunch is constantly trying to beat out the older guys.  He owns a thrift store with his wife Brandi so they're always on the look out for lots of stuff for a cheap price.  Brandi is Jarrod's wife and does lots of work at the store but will occasionally come to an auction.  They tend to fight, but hey... They're a young married couple.

Darrel Sheetz
The redneck who buys just about anything.  He loves to bid-up the others so they have less money to spend on another unit.

Dave Hester
The loud one always making sure everyone knows he's here and he's bidding.  Loves to bid-up anyone just for the fun of it.

Dan and Laura Dotson
They're the auctioneers.  And the whole reason that people win these units.

Well those are my top five favorite TV shows.  Do you notice a common theme? If you haven't seen any of them I encourage you to they're fun and educational.

My Favorite TV shows

Okay so I don't watch "So You Think You Can Dance," "Project Runway," or "Glee."  Nothing against those classic "teen" shows but I just prefer something else.  What you ask?  Well... Recently I realized that I had more in common (in term of my TV taste)  with eleven year old boys, and my dad.  I find it kind of funny, but seriously it's what I prefer.  So what shows do I mean? Here is my list (in no particular order):
1. Pawn Stars
A TV show set in Las Vegas about a family run pawn shop

Characters:
Rick

Normally he isn't that smiley

Rick owns the shop and is really tough to bargain with.  He likes guns, and anything related to war.  But he'll buy anything.

The Old Man

His name is actually Richard, and yes that is his normal expression

The Old Man is constantly being bugged by the rest of the employees, but he's still sharp as a tack and a pretty funny guy.  He likes to buy the old stuff, old toys, old cars, whatever.

Big Hoss

His name is really Corey,  

He likes to takes risks to try and come out from under his fathers shadow. He likes to buy motorcycles and anything big.


Chumlee

Yes this is how he usually looks

Chumlee is the guy everyone makes fun of.  It's probably the only reason they keep him around.  They don't let him buy much but he knows a lot about sneaker, yes sneakers.

2.  American Pickers
A show about two guys (and a girl) from Iowa who drive around the country buying and selling stuff.

Mike

Mike buys lots of stuff, but mostly he's a bicycle, Volkswagen and sign type of collector.

Frank

Frank is Mike's best friend and when you're in a car with one person for days it's a good thing they're best friends.  Frank likes to buy toys, motorcycles and signs but he'll buy anything cool.

Danielle

She's the one that finds who Mike and Frank should buy stuff from.  She is the reason that they're still in business.  She can sell anything the guys bring back.  But they've only brought her on one trip with them, I think they're scared.

3. American Restoration
A show about a restoration shop in Las Vegas

Rick

Rick can restore anything and wants his son to carry on the family business.

Tyler

Yeah I know, nice hair

 Tyler is Ricks son and works for the restoration shop I think he's about sixteen or seventeen.

Kowboy

Kowboy is the grunt and muscle of the shop, but as good as he is at taking stuff apart, putting it back together is not his strong suite.

Those are only three I have more so I'll be back.

Cartoony

Okay it's time to come out of the closet... My favorite things to watch on TV are cartoons, not like the Simpsons or anything like that but really old cartoons from the 20's-60's back when cartoons were black and white and all music.  Why? well they're like history and you can obviously see some of the issues of the time.  For example in this cartoon the two characters "Tom and Jerry" (not the cat and mouse) go to Spain because of the 18th amendment (prohibition of alcohol)  and in the end they get a letter saying that the 18th amendment has been repealed so they go back.  In this cartoon the same characters fly to Africa and paint themselves black and speak like black people to fit in, in Africa.  Then this one deals with being careful while driving a car, like a long commercial.  So old cartoons are like a little history lesson, plus they're so cute and innocent.
So that's why I like them I know they're not for everyone but I think they're great I have a 450 cartoon set
