Chum singlehandedly killing show; he is unwatchable!!!!


If not for DVR, know we could not sit through this. Rick/Old Man/Cory......great characters...........as well as all of their other employees we see.

If they continue to show more him/less old man, stick a fork in this show (thought may too late for that).

The SINGLE BEST THING THIS SHOW COULD DO IS DUMP HIM.

Rant over (we just watched 3 episodes on DVR last night, thank god the DVR remote batteries worked great!!!)

Thought I was the only one. He's an A-hole.

He only got like that because of Pawn Stars.

I don't normally like stupid people or anyone that acts dumb, but Chumlee is good stuff. Everyone needs to shut up and love him.

Chum is about as lovable as an STD.

Dumb characters such as Woody from Cheers or Edith Bunker from All in the Family can be lovable. But Chum's "act" has gone way beyond just being cheerfully, endearingly dumb. He pouts. He complains. He's self-absorbed. He's lazy. He annoys. He thinks he's god's gift to the Pawn Shop. He acts like a jerk.

reply

Well said. But unfortunately Chum is the hightest paid actor on Pawn Stars, which I'm sure annoys Rick and Cory to no end. So as long as the series has viewers, Chum isn't going anywhere.

reply

Well, it's Corey that is my least favourite by far. To quote Rick, he's a hater.

I stopped watching this load of crap because of Chumlee. He's unbearable to watch, it's like a person in their 20's with the mind of an 8 year old.

reply

and you don't get the fact that that is a little put on?

reply

How does Chumlee keep his job? He is lazy, looks unkept, sasses his boss(Rick) and ignores orders. He acts like he owns part of the shop. He is the reason I have quit watching as I cannot stand his arrogant stupidity.

reply

Umm, you do realize that all that behavior is scripted as are all the "buys". People are not just randomly showing up with rare or unique things and there happens to be a film crew there that day.
Of course that fat idiot would be fired if he acted like that if this terrible show wasn't just a poorly written sitcom.

reply

i think hes funny but he over does the part

reply

Chum is pretty bad, but no one on there is worse than COREY. He's the one who is really unwatchable.

reply

he's rick's son and is getting better at the negotiatons

always seems nervous though

I stopped watching the show for a while because of Chump Lee.He got so annoying that at first I would just fast forward through his bits then I just gave up.
I come to check it out on IMDB thinking I may start watching again and I found out Chump Lee got arrested.

I wonder if they are going to hold Chump Lee to the same high moral standard they held the young tattooed girl on the night shift? They fired her because she was in the "Suicide Girls" videos and was naked... big deal! She was actually an interesting character unlike Chump Le

So are they going to fire Chump on the same moral conduct code they fired the tattooed hottie or does the Chump get a hall pass?

reply

Chum is the worst. His shtick was never particularly funny to begin with, now I just want him to roll away.

reply

I've only seen the show a few times, but I find Chumlee a lot easier to watch than the Old Man. Geez, that guy is repulsive looking.
