I'm sure they have ways to protect the shows, but I still think there is a lot of bullshit on these shows, and it just seems like certain players/teams get extra help. Look at the twins on this season of TAR, they always flew through everything and rarely if ever got lost, just seems to strange. Other players hated them, most people watching hated them, but "Controversy Creates Cash", and keeping them around till the end was probably good for ratings.Chris Fraraccihttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=658878318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-76885954928249323752012-12-13T16:21:52.929-07:002012-12-13T16:21:52.929-07:00There's only so much you can do about WWII.There's only so much you can do about WWII.Scottyflamingonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-74559158584394899512012-12-13T16:19:40.047-07:002012-12-13T16:19:40.047-07:00LOVED Joe Schmo.

They can't be out there because it draws a crowd and nothing gets done. Instead if something interesting comes in, they close the store, get the cameras, and bring out Rick or whoever.Scottyflamingonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-58539231351927913762012-12-13T00:21:17.699-07:002012-12-13T00:21:17.699-07:00The "negotiations" on Auction Hunters ar...The "negotiations" on Auction Hunters are by far the fakest of all the auction/pawn shows.

I mean.... one of the items the article is citing as being planted is a locker full of Elvis Presley obituaries. HESTER BOUGHT THOSE! <br /><br /><br />So the show is fake (this makes me sad), and I'm guessing the reason he's fired is because they wanted to (in wrestling terms) "get some heat on him." And he wouldn't play ball. So he got fired. <br /><br /><br />But yeah, fuck him.jvc113http://www.josephcollins.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-56106240011978436472012-12-13T00:14:13.857-07:002012-12-13T00:14:13.857-07:00Nah we haven't officially got divorced, I'...Nah we haven't officially got divorced, I'm just ready to distance myself.

I read a piece on Storage Wars where pawn shop owners give the show merchandise to place in their units and then the unit's owner will then "sell" it to their "good friend" the shop owner. The pawn shop gets showcased on TV, making viewers think they have unique items, they get their merch back, and the show gets their "Holy shit, look what was stored in this room full of junk!!" moment. So you may see money change hands, but apparently it doesn't take much for a deal to be worked out ahead of time.<br /><br /><br />It's no different than seeing the APA get "paid" for their protection services.

However DWTS would fall into my note about judges. Not sure if that one has a notation about producers consulting with judges, but with judges being part of the vote, it is fairly easy to keep key people around. If Survivor or Amazing Race was faked results, at some point someone would have gone public. instead, you hear complaints about being edited to be a villain or having to do reshoots of scenes, even conversations. But the actual voting seems legit and no one has said otherwise. You would think at some point someone voted out fairly early would write a tell-all book or at least get paid for a GMA or 20/20 interview for revealing secrets.Comdukakisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-17347994451524441362012-12-12T13:41:49.497-07:002012-12-12T13:41:49.497-07:00Ex-wife?

I can imagine the dumb booby jokes cena is going to make. Although I would be all for letting the diva's wear the skimpy outfits again. If your going to have tits n ass (insert tna joke) on the show, either do it or don't, but these unsexy outfits they make the divas (at least eve) wear now are stupid. They don't really hire or push or would even present actual womens professional wrestlers, but they also have g rated the tna. Who are they even serving?

Chumlee HAPPENS to run straight into Dylan outside the venue, and here's the punchline: he has him sign it "To Chumlee," thus killing the resale value. <br /><br /><br />Of course, this guy also thought David Blaine and the guy from Crossing Over were legit, too.Mike Trainernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-23774301217009983252012-12-12T11:17:56.315-07:002012-12-12T11:17:56.315-07:00The ONLY show in that genre I hold any respect for...The ONLY show in that genre I hold any respect for is Auction Hunters, on Spike.<br /><br /><br />They SHOW THE MONEY the guys make, let the viewer see the sale/exchange of money unlike every other show where it's "I'll get X for Y", when Y's likely still in their shop/house/wherever ten years from now.kbjonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-51988705017648982142012-12-12T11:12:07.808-07:002012-12-12T11:12:07.808-07:00I would hope you're not the creator of your ex...I would hope you're not the creator of your ex-wife's cousin.Lerxst_Prattnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-67883830698240144672012-12-12T11:09:03.647-07:002012-12-12T11:09:03.647-07:00The owner from Hardcore Pawn and his douchebag son...The owner from Hardcore Pawn and his douchebag son are the 2 most unlikeable people I've ever seen.Adam Currynoreply@blogger.com
