Unfortunately, it never caught on the way that any of us hoped. I've known about this since last week, but an article published Saturday in the public broadcasting industry newspaper Current made it official: Market Warriors will not see a second season. PBS has declined to produce any more episodes past the initial order of twenty. I know that I'm disappointed. I was really looking forward to this one. Even after original narrator Fred Willard was shown the door when he reminded us all that X-rated theaters still exist, I felt confident that success was inevitable.
Perhaps I was blinded by the blondeness of picker Miller Gaffney; I could've watched her rifle through antiques all day. Yes, we were never big fans of Antiques Roadshow, but never missed an episode of Market Warriors. Unfortunately they were few and far between. Disappointed on the show being cancelled. It was something we and kids looked forward to watching together as a family.
Was informative and entertaining. Hopefully it could return or picked up by another network. This was a particularly bad decision as Market Warriors was the most relevant and interesting PBS has produced in years. And Jasonwheeler97, wtf? Get rid of Miller and bring it back! We just discovered this show on PBS online and it is a really enjoyable show except for Miller Gaffney!
Honestly we have never watched anyone quite so strange and annoying. She must be related to someone! The problem with Market Warriors was this: The group would buy something and then send it to a market far away and sell it oftentimes at a significant loss. It had, usually, a single appraiser, he was very good and the program had real educational value! I love Antiques Roadshow, the British variety. Very sad news for our family. We looked forward to it every Sunday afternoons. With our family mostly teenagers this was the one show we all wanted to watch.
As a mother I loved the hour all of us would spend together and our conversations we had about the show that went on through the evening. My children would hear the opening credits drop what they were doing and next thing I knew they were sitting next to me.
That says something about the lure this show had with my family. Please bring it back so I can spend this wonderful hour with my children. Just catching this on reruns, looked forward to future episodes only to find out it was canceled years ago! PBS, where was your dedication to your viewing public??? Shame on you!!!
