By comparison, Storage Wars is a fuckton better than that embarrassingly bad rip-off, Storage Hunters, that airs on truTV. The people behind that don't even go to any sort of effort to create so much as a semblance of realism. The entire show plays out like a backstage wrestling segment...but with staged storage lockers. It's horrendous.
