Detroit "Hardcore Pawn" on TruTV

[tetsua]

I don't think this will be pretty.
What kind of entertainment is there in seeing people down on their luck?
Sounds kind of depressing and that's not what we need around here.
Will this be a freak show like Jerry Springer with every wacko that comes in the store a
person who cashes in on their 5 minutes of "fame"?

This is the same thing I thought before I started watching "Pawn Stars" on the History Channel, but it's not like that at all [[at least not on Pawn Stars). It's mostly folks who clean out there basements, see something old and wondering what it's worth. We'll see what "Hardcore Pawn" is like though.

Yes. I just now watched "Pawn Stars" and one woman was pleasantly surprised at the value of some old bell she had to get rid of. She was glad to sell it. It can be like that Traveling Roadshow on PBS. A lot of strange antiques show up.
