Don't know much is fake and I wouldn't be surprised if they planted things. But I also would be willing to believe that they tape hundreds of hours of footage and only show the good lockers on tv. Either scenario is plausible. That said Hester has no credibility to me. He lost his store, which got negative reviews for overpricing items, and then tried to bank on his Storage Wars fame by selling Yup shirts and doing public engagements. Of course he's gonna sue if they fire him. Hell he and Trey Songz sued each other over Yup! But who cares how fake it is...it's still fun to watch and Barry is pretty funny. It's like Shipping Wars. Fun show but do the people, especially Jarett, get actual work outside the show? He's a total idiot!
holy crap, brandi looks like my old season ticket rep. i like the one on Spike cause I think it's more entertaining. I like it when they play with random **** like the bumper cars and mini boats and ****. Dude's funny.
I love Pawn Stars, American Pickers, etc. But my world shattered when I heard a lot of the rivalries on Ice Road Truckers were staged!!!! http://www.huliq.com/10473/ice-road-truckers-dave-redmon-dishes-goody-goody-trainer-tony
Bingo. This is why these shows are cool to me. I don't care if the dealings are staged or whatever. I care more about the story behind the items being sold. There's lots of cool stuff to learn on these shows.
Yup. It's bascially just an every-man's version of "Antiques Road Show". The staged interactions between amongst cast are so badly performed, how anyone could believe these shows were real is beyond me.
