Storage Wars accusation that it is faked
« on: December 12, 2012, 10:08:30 AM »
Umm yeah.  Of course it is.  Turns out the treasures they find are planted by various antique dealers that the buyer eventually goes to for an appraisal hence the reason why they know so much about the obscure items.  He even says the chick on the show had Impants given to her from A&E to add sexiness.  He found a locker with a barbell hence being bodybuilding related.



Yuuup! "Storage Wars" star Dave Hester is suing A&E, claiming its hit reality show is a fake.
 
Hester - whose aggressive bidding call "yuuup!" has become a catch-phrase emblazoned on T-shirts -- filed suit in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday, claiming that he was fired after he complained that producers were planting exotic and expensive items to pump up drama on the show.
 
"Storage Wars," which premiered in 2010, features Hester and other bidders competing over abandoned storage lockers in public auctions. Hester was the owner of a thrift store in Costa Mesa that is now closed.

Hester essentially serves as the show's villain, working to bid up lockers he has no intention of buying and frequently trash-talking other players. His Twitter handle is @davethemogul.
 
Hester and the producers had been sparring behind the scenes recently, with some news reports suggesting he might not return for the show's new season.

the funny part is people dont realize that its exaggerated and will dump their whole savings on these things and get back nothing. The show also has increased the publicity to the auctions, so now everyone is there throwing their money away on nothing and driving up prices

I don't like that dude Dave. I have watched the show and he is a douche. Serious daddy issues. Fathers and sons. And Floyd.

So many fake or staged shows out there.   Restaurant Stakeout and Undercover Boss are a couple of the biggest staged pieces of crap on TV now.

TV by definition is fake.  It's entertainment.  Nothing more.  If you want reality go live your life.  Some people were "upset" when the learned that House Hunters is fake too.  ::)

Restaurant Stakeout is totally staged. Worst acting in the world.

Big ACH posted a "hidden camera" of a ghost in an elevator prank.  Totally staged.  One actressed who was "pranked" kept on having this bullshit smile on her face as she was trying to act scared.  She kept on laughing but try to play it off like she was scared.  Not much today on TV is real.

Same as those restaurant immpossible or kitchen nightmare shows.  The owners try to act like they are villains and shit.  The host Gordon Ramsey or Robert Irvine are not only restaurant fixers but apparently are Dr. Phils fixing families and marriages.  Utter bullshit.

I like how he says he will only spend $10k to fix a place but they have a crew of about 50 contractors working on something.  Just the hourly wages alone for all of those people is about 6 figures.

reality shows are nothing more than a mutation of Soap Operas.  The view into the lives of others.

All "Reality" TV is fake.  Still can't believe millions of people think there is realism in it.  Then again, a lot of people think rasslin' is real and bodybuilding contests are judged fairly.

TV just MIGHT return to normal when more people could understand "REALITY TV" is actually the furthest thing from REALITY...

My brother worked on one such show (technician) in Vancouver, Canada and the director/creative talent people ALL feed lines to the "stars" and create the next drama scenes.

I was not really surprised as I heard Survivor was fake, but it just confirmed for me what a toilet TV these days is.... >:(
