“Pawn Stars”
In “Pawn Stars,” Rick Harrison and his family run the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas and buy, sell and evaluate items. But according to shop manager Travis Benton, his brokers “spot unique items and show them to producers who decide if they are worthy of broadcasting.” And another shop employee named Rocco Landi claimed that if an item is given the green light, the seller gets coached on how to act in front of the camera.
