Pawn Stars

Pawn Stars has become appointment viewing in Australia on BINGE and Foxtel Now, and in the US on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video for anyone who enjoys watching people under real pressure. With 24 seasons behind it, the show has had time to find its rhythm and keep it. A 7/10 rating says what the writing already makes obvious: this one works. Rick Harrison is a big part of why it works, but the format itself is the real star. Put it on tonight on BINGE and see for yourself.

Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Pawn Stars earns its spot. What separates Pawn Stars from the rest of its genre is a genuine understanding of what its audience actually wants to watch. Go inside the colorful world of the pawn business. At the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop on the outskirts of Las Vegas, generations of the Harrison family run the family business, and there’s clashing and camaraderie every step of the way. The casting of Rick Harrison and Corey Harrison is sharper than the genre usually manages. Across 24 seasons (2009–2026), it never lost the thread that made it worth starting. The editing in Pawn Stars does a lot of quiet work shaping how you feel about every person on screen. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

If the format appeals to you at all, Pawn Stars is one of the stronger examples of it. If you have already watched American Pickers, Pawn Stars is a natural next step. The 24-season run rewards the patience it asks of you. The format has been copied endlessly since Pawn Stars first appeared, which is the most honest tribute the industry knows how to give. Impossible to watch casually.
