Sure it's kinda trash tv but after tonight's episodes they had memorial message for Roy and I just googled it and it turns out he died from a heart attack. :(

I guess he had to deal with one too many idiots and said that's enough.

Just saw storage wars tonight. I normally don't watch these shows, but my dad was watching it and I was in the living room doing work on my laptop.

He also likes Pawn Stars.

Chumlee makes a lot of money on that show. He acts like a complete idiot too. $5 million!

That's actually one of the better one's by far, sucks about Roy but he was a chain-smoker and was angry a lot of the time, bad combination for the ticker...

I don't think he makes $5M/year. That's probably what he's made since the show started (maybe a bit more with endorsements, appearances, etc.) But yeah, that's a lot of coin for a guy who has the skills, appearance, and intelligence to be a minimum wage worker.

At least you aren't hooked on "Buying Alaska", "Buying the Bayou", etc.

It is basically Storage Wars Rescue Impossible, but for some reason the people who watch it thinking they are above those shows don't realize that.

I hadn't watched the show in a while and caught just a few minutes of last night's show. Were the two semi-hotties brought in to replace Roy or were they coming in anyway?

He makes $25k an episode.

You would be correct. $5m is his worth. Insane isn't it?

He just happened to be at the right place at the right time.

He has ZERO talent.

I think they might had been in a previous episode awhile ago as they have other people like that once in awhile.

Pawn stars was decent for a bit, it had some old antiques etc, but the fake/scripted scenes got really old really fast.
