    another fake bullcrap moment on Pawnstars

    I was watching one of the older episodes I guess I had missed...and I know people say they pay actors and stuff on the show, but this time it was the one with the dude selling the old coke machine for $300, well the dude is Ricks brother from Ricks restorations, the guy says it's been in the family for years..they buy it and take to who? you got it...Rick from Rick's restorations he's restoring the same machine his brother just sold...what a joke..Now his brother's a regular on the show so I'm sure everyone's noticed

      It's funny, but I think the only "reality" show that was real was Cops.
      At least that show where they repossess cars (oh god it's a horrible show) pre-faces the show by saying it's a re-enactment.

        The ONLY reason I watch Pawn Stars is to learn about the stuff they "buy". Not that it would ever happen but at least I have learned about a few items that I would normally pass over if I saw one at a garage sale or flea market.

            Well I certainly don't ever care to meet THOSE script writers.

                I like seeing what they bring in the shop more than anything. I could care less about the money part....

                  I think that I might have watched a couple of episodes of Pawn Stars tops just to see what it was like and to say that I acually watched it. I just could nto bring myself to watch a fake scripted reality show any longer.

                  It would have been great if the action was actually REAL. There is plenty of real stuff going on in this world. I do not know why they won't keep it real.

                    You just figured out reality TV is fake?

                    The shows are scripted, cast and the scenes are done in multiple takes. Nothing real about them.
                    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                      At this point, wrestling is one of the most realistic things on TV.

                          I can remember when wrestling use to be 10 minutes of talk and 30 minutes of action (give or take). Now it is like 30 minutes of talk (or more) and 10 minutes of action.

                            That is funny. I think there is another guy (a wannabe actor) who finds his way on these shows. He definitely has been on Pawn Stars and short lived Real Deal but seem to think I have seen him some other shows as well.

                              Well...except the Rick Flair interviews. He would talk thirty minutes and then wrestle an hour!
