Pawn Stars
Isn’t it amazing how much of the History Channel show is scripted? It’s possible that the store exists and is owned by the Harrisons. However, rather than being a working store, it has since become a tourist attraction. The stars no longer work there during regular hours due to Nevada’s privacy laws. Apart from that, they’ve already reached an agreement with the sellers on a price, and many of the items have been thoroughly researched.
The Real Housewives
There had been much speculation that this show was scripted, but Real Housewives of New Jersey star Theresa Guidice finally confirmed it when she swore under oath that it was. The meetings between the ladies had been planned ahead of time by the producers. You could say the same thing about their acrimonious disagreements.
