Reality TV Cashes In With Pawn Stars

The Legend has it that a Reality TV Producer while on a weekend trip to Las Vegas ran out of cash and needed gas money to get back home after crapping out in Las Vegas so he went into a Pawn Shop and sold his video equipment and the rest is history. Whether or not this is true makes no difference but it sure does make a nice back story. This is Pawn Stars, one of Cable TV's Highest Rated shows and the Cornerstone of Programming for The History Channel on Monday Nights.


Pawn Stars is a Reality TV Show centered around 4 central characters that operate a Las Vegas Pawn Shop and has become a worldwide phenomenon in its first few seasons. Recently Corey Harrison aka Big Hoss, who is the Son of Owner Rick Harrison said of Pawn Stars, "We have over 160 Shows Done and no one is in Rehab". The shows main characters and in real life work at The Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas are as Pictured below here from Left to Right: Rick Harrison ( Owner ), Chumlee ( Childhood Friend of Corey and fall guy on the show ), Corey Harrison and The Old Man Harrison ( The Grumpiest Man in The Pawn Business )

This show has become a money making machine and worldwide franchise and has even spawned another revenue stream in the form of an online game which many people including myself have been sucked into and enjoy on a daily basis.

Find out for yourself what the buzz is all about and tune in to watch this show for yourself. I will blog more about it in the future and its spin offs and clones that are out there as well. Pawn Stars runs back to back new episodes on Monday Nights at 10 PM on The History Channel. You can also play the game on Facebook or by visiting Be A Pawn Star . Pictured below are Rick,Corey,Chumlee and the old man individually so you can better identify them and I wish you Happy Viewing!
