Comic Book Men on AMC

[Secretagentnumber6]

I liked the show. I really wish they would actually cover more of the comic releases on the show, but there may be some issues with getting permission with doing that. The whole pawn stars thing is okay but not sure it can carry the show over time. The flea market stuff was great, but obviously that was probably a one off. I will watch again.

I would be nice for them to cover new comics but if it turns out to be a hit show we mite just see that in later seasons. I'm hoping that we can get some guest appearance's from the actors in clerks and so forth.

This show made Whitney Houston die.

I wonder how this show is for business at the actual comic shop... I mean, if you were a customer there, and you see how they make fun of customers after they leave the store... would it make you want to shop there?

I know stores do this... but usually I don't get to see it on TV!

HAHA... man this was my thought as well. I can see this show becoming a hit though for a cpl of reasons. It airs so close to The Walking Dead and there are so many nerds in this world...lol

Not my cup of tea... I watched it and won't watch it again... but I understand there will be those who get into it.

I hated the flea market segment(s).

I was surprised how "generic" it seemed. Just like every other pawn show on TV....right down to the weekly "task" (the flea market). There'll be one next week, I'm sure; it certainly appears that's the formula they're going to go with.

I won't be watching again either.

For some reason, this seemed to fly under the radar but I have some vague memory of hearing about its development way back when. I recorded the episode and I'll give it a shot. Its a best case scenario, I hate it and I don't have another show to watch.
