American Pickers (2010– )
7/10
Entertaining, but unrealistic.
2 May 2018
Very fun show to watch, but the logistics just don't make sense, dollars and cents, that is. If these two guys are driving all over of the country wasting time and incurring expenses, how can the make any money when the vast majority of the items they come back with promise to bring a profit of less than $100? couple hundred $ in profit? Frank Fritz is the major culprit here. While Mike Wolfe often does set his sights on big ticket items (and the most interesting ones), Fritz is busy haggling with property owners over whether they will sell that toy or oil can to him for $20 versus the $25 they were asking, so that we he sells it he can make $10 rather than $5. It just doesn't add up, but it is entertaining escapism.
