      I never had an issue with either of them, however I think it's obvious that their chemistry was what made the show. They pulled off the appearance of working well together, whether they did or not, and this last season didn't have the appeal of the former ones due to Franks absence. My guess is the ratings will drop off.

    Viewed many episodes of Pickers here in Australia and watched as Mike constantly belittled Frank. Whether it was scripted that way I have no idea but no one can feel comfortable being treated like that continually. Good on you Frank for moving on

      I saw some show on TV where he was the host of an Indian motorcycle event and he walked out on stage thinking everybody was going to clap for him and everything and the crowd just kind of sat there, (I think one or two of them even booed) now if Frank had been with him, I think it would have been a whole lot different.

      "He Is History"
      In Public He Was Plastered 90% Of The Time & Disrespectful To A Large Number Of American Picker Fans.
      Frank Thought He Was Some Sort Movie Star & Part Of The Elites.
      That Some Day They'd Make Him Into An Action Figure.
      That's The Real Reality Frank Thought Of Himself.
      Frank Never Spoke Of Why He Ripped Of A Number Of His Online Buyer's & Wouldn't Addres The Issues Untill The Court's Got Involved.

      Then Why Frank Was Also Booted Because He Was Over Heard While Out On One Of His Drunken Stupors Insulting History Channel & It's Fan's.
      He Blurted Out That He Was Going To Fake An Injury & Sure The History Channel & Collect Millions.
      The Producers Heard About It Through Social Media & That's What Broke Frank's Back...Weither It Was True Or Not.
      It Was To Big Of A Risk For The Producers To Take Any Chance On.
      At The End Of The Day None Of It Matters...Because All Of Them Are No Longer With The History Channel.

    I went through something similar. Had a major back injury & surgery. My best friend of over 18 yrs didn't call, didn't text, nothing. I reached out to her several times via text while recovering from the surgery (recovery took nearly 1 year) with no response. Finally I asked what I had done wrong & why we weren't friends anymore. She replied with "we're still friends" but I haven't heard one thing from her since & that was 8 yrs ago. Was more hurtful than a boyfriend breakup especially since there was no explanation. Up until my back injury we were like sisters, saw each other every few days, texted daily etc. You learn who your true friends are during crisis.

The Fonzi character was a fan favorite over the "supposed to be" star of the show Ritchie ( Ron Howard ) and Michael J. Fox's Alex Keaton became the center of attention on Family Ties in a similar fashion. The attention usually goes to the head of the actor involved and speeds along the demise of the show. The Ritchie Cunningham character wasn't even in the last season(s) ? of Happy Days. Look at what happened to " Two & a Half Men."

    I had a very best friend from Kindergarden, we also could finish each others sentences. Could see each other across our classroom in grade school, knew what thee other was thinking & laugh hysterically & only we knew why. We had a falling out 28 yrs later. I miss her soooo much. She has passed some yrs back.
    But I dream of her talking to me telepathically all the time. So I figure shes still with me until I get to 5D or
    otherwise. People go their separate ways when they can no longer compromise their ethics or morals. At least in my case. I watched my best friend make the same mistake 3 times & crying 'why these things are always happening to her?'
    I summed it up for her with common sense answers and basically told her no one to blame but herself. She didnt like that answer & was not willing to change her behavior enough to not make mistake #4.
    So she ended our friendship.
    I cared more about her health, morals & ethics than she did. She died young because of it.

      Frank was ok. But he was definitely the weak link in the show. I didn’t really like him too much because he will knickle and dime people out of their heirlooms, he’s so cheap. And what makes it worse is that he’s at the same time collecting a big check from the tv show.
      Mike at least seemed to pay people a bit better. And he seems authentic and genuine. But his brother doesn’t have a good personality and don’t prefer him on the show.

    I've noticed a huge change in Mike Wolfe in the last three or four years. He has turned into basically a jerk especially towards Frank and then laughs about it. He brags about it and all that has really rubbed me the wrong way and I've actually stopped watching it regularly. I like Frank a lot and I thought he was the heart of the show and Mike was more the business. Frank also said something to the effect that he was getting phased out so Robbie could step in and I believe that to be true also (the network is saying thats not their plan, be we can see it happening. I dont really care for robbie. He has no heart (compared to frank), hes a kiss up to mike (which clearly feeds mikes ego, with mike often telling robbie how great he (Mike) is, himself, with robbie just nodding in agreement). Now they're labeling themselves as the Wolf brothers on the road... I won't be watching anymore, and it's a shame that turned out this way but with his divorce coming up too, it seems that Mike has changed in several different ways. I'm really happy with Frank's attitude as far as that won't change his life either way, and I would love to see Frank on the road in his own show if he can handle it physically.

      I like Robby, I think he's pretty funny. Dani however, is annoying.

    I am happy to see that Frank is going to walk away from the show so he can get the help that he needs. It is truly an act of strength to admit that you need help and even more so when it involves walking away from a lucrative TV show. I wish Frank Fritz all the best. I hope he comes out the other side a lot healthier and free from the demons he has been battling with while struggling to get through the days with a coworker that you are expected to get along with for the cameras.
    This is somewhat similar to why the show “Mythbusters” ended. Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage just weren’t compatible working together anymore and it wasn’t realistic to continue the show when the tension between the two costars was negatively affecting the show.
    These people we watch on TV are real people like you and I and I truly hope Frank gets the help he needs.

    The only reason I watched American pickers was because of Frank his personality and his demeanor I loved. he made the show without Frank that shows boring there's no integrity in that show anymore they should give Frank his own show.
