I like American Pickers a lot!  It's really cool to see some of the stuff they pull out of junk yards.

I watch *bleep* Stars every once in a while! I get mad when they try to lowball the people though >:(

I stopped watching the history channel when they stopped showing actual history. I miss real documentaries. No more drama-filled unrealistic serials that depict a moment in history; no more antique roadshow reality tv; no more shows that should be on the discovery channel (I'm looking at you, modern marvels and the universe, even if I do like the universe); no more shows about pseudoscience, cryptology, and little green men from mars. I want REAL documentaries, REAL shows about history. Its stuff like this that made me get rid of my cable and get the shows that actually show history. Now if you do like these shows thats fine, all the power to you. I just don't think they belong on the HISTORY channel. Give me history or give me death.

But I shouldn't really care. I don't even have cable anymore.

Love them!  They are characters, but it also alludes to the dream of maybe finding that treasure in the attic!

I also like the show *bleep* Stars. I like the guys that run it and I think it is interesting the stuff that people bring in.

I like American Pickers.  I've also been watching Auction Hunters on Spike lately too.

I agree with Flackle. Although I don't think they should necessarily get rid of all the other shows, they do need more actual documentaries.

I enjoy *bleep* Stars much more than American Pickers, but they're both good shows. :)

My mom watches both those shows.  She is all the time telling me about things that happened on them.  She says that she learns alot from them.
