Review of Pawn Stars

I visited the actual store in Vegas and realized that the show had no real space for selling items-it's resold on-line. The Vegas store is tiny, about 700 sq ft, and even at that half of the space is used to sell new memorabilia to advertise the show. The store is really not manned by the on-screen cast except during filming hours. The items that are shown on the show are hand picked ahead of time and special delivered from people around the country. Everything is known ahead of time. That is why the on-screen cast member knows the history of the item with such accuracy. There is allot of scripting to give the commentary some humor as well. It all has to be done this way because most stuff bought into pawn shops is super boring junk that you would never get people interested in watching a show about.
