AMC's 'Comic Book Men' Returns October 13

Haven't watched aaaaaaany of it before.

Never understood why this show was on amc. Shouldn't it be on History Channel or something? Anyways I stopped watching since it got cut from an hour to 30 minutes, and I won't watch it now that it's at midnight. I liked the show but it's not enough for me to keep watching

No, in fact less shows like this should be on the history channel.

I'm excited! Love this series!

What is that?!

Always Sunny, and Comic Book Men are my favourite shows, love letter to SModcast and TESD fans, thats why people don't get the show, each episode is a spin off of an episode of the Tell Em' Steve-Dave podcast

Can't wait for it. I love the whole SmodCo empire.

i watched them but only because i like this kind of shows. with a lot of pop culture. i usually fast forward to what items are for sale/bought.

its finally back!

I love that show.I can't wait. I'm always watching the older shows on Netflix.

Brian Johnson is hilarious.

i hear comments about how these guys are actually just a bunch of fakes in real life compared to their characters? idk exactly where i read it (maybe a youtube comment lol), but people said that they're not as charismatic as they're portrayed to be in the show, something like that. I dunno... haven't watched it really, so sorry if i hurt anyone ^_^

See, for me, Brian Johnson is the reason I stopped watching comic book men. I happen to like comic books and the rest of the people on the show. So having this grumpy old a$$hole who knows nothing about comics just troll everyone else every episode got really tiring for me.

I'd love to watch this show but I can't get past the spare that is Kevin Smith and his jorts.

No way? He's one of the most hilarious people I've ever seen.

If you listen to their podcasts, which are really unscripted, they're actually very close to their characters. The only one that is different in real life is Kevin, and that's because in real life he's HIGH AS BALLS. Haha.

Anyways, this is like, THE BEST SHOW EVER.

@muyjingo: I know what you mean, but with what they have (Pawn stars, american pickers) it would go along

This show needs 20% more Ming voice and BQ

this Brian is just a jerk. also I don't like Walt that much he kinda is a poop head. like when he didn't get a tattoo like he promised. or how he really rips people off on old comics. Ming is cool, Mikes the best.

I'm shocked to see so many positive comments in this thread. Not bashing really, I'm a firm believer in no one having to justify their opinions.

I never found this show all that enjoyable. And only watched it at all because it came on after Walking Dead. But hey, if it makes people happy then I guess this is good news.

"returns on Sunday, October 13 at midnight"

Why bury the show?

I have on demand and DVR, I can watch this any time.

Damn it. I really am not looking forward to them advertising this crap during Walking Dead.

Nice, glad to have it back.

I love this show, these guys are great. I like it being back on Sundays but midnight is a little late. Looks like I'll have to DVR it.

stoked. Show is pretty great. Ming takes a lot of crap from the guys though.

Awesome.

GREEDY AND LAZY!

Thanks, I was trying to sum up my feelings towards this thing while hoping to find someone who felt similar and you hit two nails right on the head.

This isn't about comics, or even being a geek, it just upheld that wonderful misconception that people who don't read comics have that geeks are a collection of spam sandwiches interested in how much a comic is worth in money and not enjoyment. Oh and which female character has the biggest boobs, or whatever it was they 'discussed'.

Same here.

This

This show is meant to give those who are not really into comics and the whole "geek culture" associated with it an inside look of what we're all about, but instead it depicts consumers as people who ONLY care about what value the books they buy now (or ones they already own) will have in the future and makes these particular retailers look like greedy, back biting, pawn brokers who will try their best to give a seller the lowest possible amount for items they know are worth well more than what the like of Walt is willing to buy for said items and even more than what the seller is even asking for.

Hmmm, well I missed almost all of last season so I'd have to catch up but I just don't know if I'd wanna. That first season bored the heck outta me so I'm lacking impetus to continue with episodes...
