The show itself is fascinating...the reality behind it, much less so.

Personally, I'm always amazed at how quickly all the experts rush down to look at whatever it is that is being pawned. Museum curator? Antique Firearms expert? Handwriting expert? Yeah. It's set up. It HAS to be. Still fun to see the cool stuff. Way better than watching Antique Roadshow. Same cool stuff...dry as old toast.
