  • This is a clip from a great show staring Dave Attell called "Insomniac" where he would go around to different cities and stay up all night drinking and basically raising hell. In this particular episode he was in Vegas and just happened to go into the pawn shop Rick Harrison and his family own.

    This is where Rick got the idea that he could make a show out of their business. It took him 4 years to finally make that dream a reality after talking to a few production companies and networks. Pretty amazing how his foresight and determination to make it happen paid off so huge.

      Yeah I found that funny too lol. It probably has to do with it being a different time. Back then Rick would not really care about offending people necessarily, and the public was not concerned with being politically correct. I always felt he should have changed that stance in recent years, German militaria is only getting more expensive and is highly sought after by collectors. But like I said before, the whole being worried about offending people thing and being politically correct... 👎🙄 he thinks if he shows that stuff in his shop he will lose ratings and probably not be welcome on the network...sad to say but probably true these days.

    If you think about it, Insomniac predates and inspired many if not ALL of the current numerous "work shows" like Dirty Jobs, Parking Wars, Pawn Stars, Storage Wars and others. Many of the same jobs were covered in Insomniac in more humorous ways, like as Dave puts it "an E! Wild On! for ugly people". They would make a goldmine if they either brought the show back or at least released ALL episodes on DVD.
