archaeotypetw I liked Canadian Pickers when it first started. It was a nice change from the faux drama and aggressiveness of the American Pickers. The hosts were easy going and didn't try to pressure sellers into selling them their stuff for next to nothing.Then it got stupid. Like American Pickers, they eventually added a cast of supporting characters who added nothing to the show. They also added faux drama and the Pickers started to act like jerks - aka the American Pickers. I started watching the series again recently because they've been showing re-runs. There's still good info to be had for people who are interested in antiques, but I can't say I'm sorry the show was cancelled. In the later episodes, it had become just an annoying as American Pickers.

Rusty Silverado First of all the kind of nick knacks and garbage bores the crap out of me, the fact that Sheldon can't tell a Ford from a Chevy or that Scott does not know about older bikes or motorcycles shows that they have no business being on TV or calling themselves "pickers". The show should be called Grandma Grifters. Whenever there is something of value regardless of how boring it might be Scott low brows and talks down to the sellers in such a way that makes me ashamed he uses Canadian in the title of the show. Not to mention his yes man Sheldon who pretends to be on the sellers side with the statement "that sounds like a good deal to me". And Sheldon only seems to know about stuff Grandmothers are interested in. Add to all this are the stupid sound effects, totally un watchable.The American Pickers have far more knowledge in classic machinery and at times make the occasional mistake that shows that they are at times winging it. At least I feel like I've learned something after watching the American guys.

anmeijers Its a relief to see a fun and easygoing show like this next to all the competitive head biting *I am angry and I don't know why* shows that you see where people only talk crap behind each others backs and are too full of them self. Kudos to the gentlemen who brought back some decency onto TV, I enjoy the show greatly and its also nice to see some breathtaking Canadian countryside along the way. Thank you Canadians for bringing back a bit of faith in humanity. I might actually visit Canada now sometime because of this show, hospitable people, great views and endless nature,relaxing and fun it truly seems.

andrewvince-c When I first saw the reruns of this show I thought to myself , "who wants to see a show with two Albertans dressed up as cowboys digging in people's garages and sheds?". However, I made it through one episode and I like it. Scott and Sheldon are very knowledgeable hosts, and they are entertaining because they genuinely enjoy what they do and have fun. It's nice to see the smaller towns in Canada being showcased, but most importantly its cool to see the random stuff they take interest in, as I would have never have realized the history and collectible value behind some of these items. I have learned about Canadian history and antiques while watching this show, and even though the pieces purchased in this show are not as nice as those featured I'm American Pickers, I still enjoy the Canadian version more.
