Reviews

thesavants08 This show is hilarious! I am a female and do not read comic books, and I really enjoy this show. I hate when people say oh you have to read comic books or love Smith to enjoy this show. That is far from the truth. What I do know of comic book stories(which is not much), I get from movies made from them. From the show: I enjoy seeing how much the toys,books, etc. brought in off the streets to the store are worth. I also like when they explain some of the comic books in the show. They sound ten times better than the movies made from them half the time. I think the interaction between the guys on the show is what makes it for me. They are constantly asking each other about crazy hypothetical situations, and in general always saying something hilarious. They have also gotten into some funny situations on the show. All in all I enjoy it, and it conveniently comes on after the Walking Dead.

tjlamb0518 These guys are TALENTED on their podcast. Very funny. So, when the show was announced, I was pretty excited. Sadly, this is so scripted....so watered down, that AMC took 3 great talents (and Mike) and neutered them with set up bits, staged interactions and forced insertions of the King of Self-Promotion (and Denial), Kevin Smith. And I used to LOVE Kevin. Heck, I own Jersey Girl on DVD and LIKE it. But the last couple of years, his head has been somewhere else and he's become very much the antithesis of what he used to be.I thought him being on the West Coast meant this was going to be a show with the TESD cast doing what they do. Instead, we get Pawn Stars in a comic shop.Please let it end, AMC, and let these guys go back to being fun and funny without your interference.

peryteran2 Adding to the already flooded market of "how much is my crap worth" shows like Pawn Stars, Auction Hunters, Oddities and the original Antiques Roadshow comes Comic Book Men.If you're Kevin Smith fan, you'll probably like this, but for the rest of us, this comes across as a stale formula that is already being done on the Travel channel, for crying out loud.I've watched two shows and can't say that anyone really stands out, except for a guy who has a ZZ Top Beard.Basically, it seemed like the show is set up to belittle "customers" who come in to have their stuff evaluated with the prerequisite "I have to check with my buddy who's an expert in (blank)" and then the person is told that their junk is worth nothing.Then, we switch to a studio where Smith tries to ramp up the drama where we get to make fun of the chump and celebrate the "Men" and their efforts.I suspect that Kevin Smith supports recycling. It should have the green symbol underneath the header. it look like he's using content from his podcasts and spitting it out as a TV show.The feeling that these customers have been pre-screened a hundred times and coached is pretty strong here. I just feel bad that a bunch of dumpy middle-aged guys need to feel better about themselves at the expense of even dumpier dudes......40 year old virgin already taught me what the value of an Oscar Goldman doll is. I don't need these guys telling me as if it's secret knowledge.In the words of their animated forefather: Worst Show Ever.

Cult-Stitch I'm a nerd. Used to read comics every day, still love hearing about the characters and the stuff out there. Who the heck thought this was a good format? I didn't come here to see Kevin Smith and whoever the heck is talking on a radio show breaking in every 45 seconds when something interesting comes up. I want to see the crap they find, the crap people bring in and not this The View dork sewing circle crap. Just because Kevin Smith knows about comics and has a comic shop does it justify a format like this. If Smith needs to have a show like this so badly, go and run the store if he needs to justify being on camera. I stopped 20 minutes in and won't come back, it's not worth the time.
