PS - Bone Gokin sounds terrifying. Love the Kanti figure you guys reviewed. I agree about how expressive it is, and there's something about that pre-flatscreen monitor face that is awesome.
I caught up with Collection Intervention last night.
As far as reality television goes, I thought it was okay. I realize they're not the same type of shows, but it's head and shoulders above Toy Hunter.
At least C.I. doesn't insult your intelligence (that often) as the obviously much heavier scripted T.H.
I think that stems from the fact that it's on SyFy. They already have a built-in, informed audience.
I also find it entertaining on a semi-shelf porn level as it takes a look at the extravagant and not-so-extravagant set-ups these individuals have.
Then it works on the Hoarders level where it makes you think, "At least I'm not that bad, right?" ;)
