Reyne Haines, of the Huffington Post calls the two main characters “down to earth, every day kind of guys – who are completely old skool”. These manly-men are “pickers” and in trade talk that means they are the dealers – to the dealers. They scavenge the countryside visiting barns and country homes, junk piles and stacks in garages finding the proverbial needle in the haystack, turning rust to riches.

  1. Thanks for the tip…I'll check American Pickers out after watching from our terrace the US's largest fireworks: the Macys 4th of July fireworks over the Hudson while the largest US flag waves from NYCs George Washington Bridge.

    Happy Independence Day to Divas everywhere!

  2. Antiques Diva, Hello!

    As we in the states get ready to celebrate the Fourth of July with parades, picnics and fireworks, it's also the time to reflect on the talents of our "founding fathers" who put in place a great foundation for a new nation to welcome those with a variety of backgrounds. With such a diverse population, we benefit from the shared experience of all citizens. So, while buttering up the corn (or drinking it from the cup) and lighting up sparklers, a tea toast from coast to coast to all on Independence Day!

    cheers!

  3. Happy 4th! Well, I'm going to plagiarize Erma Bombeck for my "entry": “You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism.”

  4. From a shy, newbie, anonymous (unless I win! hehe) blogger, I appreciate your stopping by and commenting. Happy 4th of July to all of you are from the land of the free and the home of the brave!

  5. I love this country … I celebrated the Fourth of July weekend by doing a bit of gardening, then was distracted by my neighbors and their new lowrider bicycle. Talk turned to my latest trip, so they came in and ate some German waffle cookies. That's downhome global neighborhood friendship!

  6. as mush as I love to travel the world –
    there is no place like HOME!
    Happy 4th of July!

  7. love this show, always reminds me of when we were kids going out with mom to garage sales and auctions.

  8. America – Land of the Free – let liberty and Freedom and the intent of the founding father's constitution survive the current politcal chaos of our times! Lorrie

  9. There is no place like the United States of America. Those of us who live in any of its 50 states are very, very lucky.

  10. I'm a little late…just came across this site. I have to go with Abe Lincoln's quote "Democracy is the government of the people, by the people, for the people." So true, but it seems like the common man isn't represented to well in this day and age.
