The Frank Fritz Moment That Went Too Far On American Pickers

The Frank Fritz Moment That Went Too Far On American Pickers

“American Pickers” benefited from its stars’ unique interpersonal dynamic for more than a decade, but the era of Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz teaming up to pick through attics, barns, and garages in search of treasure is over. Fritz left the show in July 2021, and the two reality TV stars have since shared a series of public statements about one another, revealing what appears to have been a considerable tension underscoring their former working relationship. That said, there was one revealing moment from an old Frank episode that may have crossed the line. This is the Frank Fritz moment that went too far on “American Pickers.”

    Won’t ever watch it again. What a backstabbing friend Mike is! Karma is a bitch!

  2. fasteddie774 on January 13, 2023 at 9:09 am

    Mike’s Kamala laugh is enough to make anyone turn the channel! Robbie is a sleeping pill! Danielle is way too fake! Sorry! Just call them like I see them.

    What were your thoughts on this?

  4. Sterling on January 13, 2023 at 9:09 am

    The show is much better without Frank, He is so gd cheap unlike Mike who steps up and pays up.

  5. ABCDE ABCDE on January 13, 2023 at 9:10 am

    Well should show an episode of how many times frank stunk up the van & mike had to smell it.

  6. ukefun1 on January 13, 2023 at 9:10 am

    I’ve always felt Frank was insecure and always trying to out do Mike, even to rip off sellers to make his point

  7. Ron Jones on January 13, 2023 at 9:12 am

    And now Mike is in charge of Frank’s everyday life, because of his recent stroke in health conditions. Mike betrayed his wife and his lifelong friend. I hope Frank gets better soon 🙏🏿.

    Mike and his status still won’t get him laid in this town. I’ve seen many women turn him down on numerous occasions. He acts like he’s all that and in this town that don’t mean jack. If he wants to act high and mighty he might wanna go hang out in Davenport. Even Mike with his money is still considered middle class here.

    The show is dead to me until Frank is back. He was well more than half of the show that I used to enjoy and will not until Frank is back.!!!

    This title is such click bait

  11. mats hanssen on January 13, 2023 at 9:15 am

    I think that Wolfe is an arrogant, dominating
    and vain person.😊

  12. MaSSa Power on January 13, 2023 at 9:17 am

    It’s always about the MONEY $$😎👍🏻

  13. Kick Rocks on January 13, 2023 at 9:19 am

    A damn shame what Mike Wolfe did to his life king friend. But that’s what money does to a person. It exposes the persons true colors and Mike Wolfe’s true character was glaring only obvious. He was a greedy pig who who stab anyone in the back for a buck.

  14. ChuggityMuggs1 on January 13, 2023 at 9:19 am

    wolfe is a breed of a kind

  15. Thomas Nappo on January 13, 2023 at 9:23 am

    DIDNT THINK MIKE THE ASSHOLE WOULD STAB FRANK IN THE BACK

  16. Steve Hughes on January 13, 2023 at 9:28 am

    Fritz is a deceitful, GREEDY, (some say) dishonest worm, more than ready to take unacceptable advantage WHENEVER he can get away with it. Wolfe, while certainly not above the same tactics from time to time, Is a FAR MORE scrupulous guy and one I’d do business with. Fritz is a PIG…!!!

  17. Dave Mac on January 13, 2023 at 9:30 am

    As long as we don’t have to see Dani trying to negotiate. Every price they throw at her, she says “ok, that seems fair”.

  18. Stephen Adams on January 13, 2023 at 9:31 am

    Here after the news of frank. So sad. Had a stroke and isn’t allowed to take care of him himself anymore. He’s got someone to be his guardian now.

  19. bill on January 13, 2023 at 9:32 am

    cant stand either one , glad the show off the air

  20. Diesel Submariner on January 13, 2023 at 9:34 am

    I never knew about their falling out or Franks illness! I am shocked and feel for him as I suffer from a very bad back. I will no longer watch Pickers now that I know he has been replaced by Mikes brother (Who I do not really like – bit like a robot) All the best to Frank, wish you a speedy recovery.

  21. Tom McDonough on January 13, 2023 at 9:34 am

    So we’re to believe he was fired for complaining about the show’s creator and producer talking on the phone too much on multi-hour driving trips? Lmao. The entire show is edited and the scenes they show were put there DELIBERATELY. Here’s a question. If Mike’s in the business of selling antiques, then why is it that their online store only features promotional hats and tee shirts, but not a single product?

  22. Ann Oxley on January 13, 2023 at 9:35 am

    Frank and Dave Ort would make great show hosts!

  23. ABCDE ABCDE on January 13, 2023 at 9:35 am

    Apparently no one has done their homework on frank & the real reasons why he was fired by the history channel.

    The Truth hurts no only about the real frank fritz but sadly all the fans that have been mislead is by deception.

    Frank brought his being fired on himself.

    (1st) was his drunkenness rants in public & disrespect to fans especially the women…he was never disrespectful to any men cause he knew he’d of gotten a beat down.

    (2nd) frank would constantly be drunk out in public & always boasting that he was an elitist & no one in the drinking establishments where he’d go would ever reach his stature in society.

    (3rd) frank was abusing Oxycotin while on set & was called in by the producers to seek help with is abusing Oxycotins…frank response was that he had a contract & denied his drug abuse problem.

    (4th) frank was taken to court 11X’s for not shipping item’s that he had sold on line & never responding from those buyer’s wanting their money back & each case each presiding judge told frank he was fortunate that he was was charged with wire fraud because all monies were transferred electronically.

    (5th) on one of frank drunken tyrates he was running his mouth that he was going to fake a back injury and sue the history channel & producer’s claiming he was forced to film episode when they knew he had back problems.

    When this had gotten back to the history channel producer’s & found out about it…because mike showed on numerous episode occasions he was having back problems.

    The producers thought it was mike that had planted the ssed in franks mind about his plotting to fake the back injury & sue the history channel & producer’s.

    All production of the show had stopped until mike had to prove to the history of the
    producer’s he did no such thing & was in no way involved with franks plan of deception.

    So mike severed his ties with frank because mike knew frank was just to far gone with his alcoholism & abuse of Oxycotin.

    This is what caused frank to be terminated from the show…so all you Oh poor frank this & poor frank that.

    THERE’S THE TRUTH ABOUT FRANK & IT CAN ALL BE FOUND IN PUBLIC COURT RECORDS

    JUST DO YOUR HOMEWORK & STOP BEING 🐑 & JUMPING ON THE FRANK SYMPATHY BANDWAGON.

    Now If that’s the type of person you support than to all of you that do…you are no better than frank A DRUNK/DRUG ABUSER & SHISTER.

    Me I wouldn’t want a person like that around me in anyway shape or form.

    Frank fritz made his own bed & now he’s going to have to lay in it.

  24. Ricky Pace on January 13, 2023 at 9:37 am

    Mike you done Frank wrong that is really wrong

  25. A.A. Bay Area Elderly Services on January 13, 2023 at 9:40 am

    Two men aren’t meant to spend that much time tomorrow

  26. Nick T on January 13, 2023 at 9:41 am

    All who say Mike ain’t a good guy is bullshit.. sure he can be a dick at times but he’s a solid dude.. he has heart and he was more than nice to Frank.. everybody busts balls .. that’s what guys do to each other.. I saw no obscene abuse ever.. just brotherly ribbing.. stop the Frank pity party.. I love Frank as much as anybody.. I will miss him and he did add to the show
    . . But don’t act like it was all Mike’s fault.. that’s BS

  27. electro1622 on January 13, 2023 at 9:41 am

    I’m glad frank got booted off the show… he was just a straight out cunt and tried to take advantage of kind older folk.

  28. Steve Baker on January 13, 2023 at 9:43 am

    What a shame hope they make it up

  29. John Piscitello on January 13, 2023 at 9:47 am

    It’s ironic because they look for sentimental treasures and now we all feel sentimental about Frank.We all agree Frank belongs on the show their both great guys just a riff similar to Andy Griffith show when sweet Aunt Bea wouldn’t meet Ron and Andy. All great people all with feelings .Have a show where Frank and mike come together and bury some hatchets😊

  30. Rick on January 13, 2023 at 9:49 am

    I wouldn’t be upset to see them close that business. As far as I’m concerned they were both a couple of con artists taking advantage of ppl. Buying stuff super low then selling for a lot more than they paid. I’ve seen on the show were one of them has bought something for like $20 and sold it for $200. That’s messed up. They should have gave the person at least $100. I sure aa hell wouldn’t have let them pull that. I would’ve charge them close to retail.

  31. Hugo 2001 on January 13, 2023 at 9:49 am

    I knew Mike had his dark side, not a very good person/friend. He’s all show.
    No longer watch it because frank is not there.

  32. Boudjema Kaddoussi on January 13, 2023 at 9:51 am

    Bonsoir j aiment cette émission je vous suis tt les jours très super bravo et bonne continuation à vous tous .France Avignon

  33. Peter Ironrope on January 13, 2023 at 9:52 am

    That’s one thing people should ever never do is stab the people who have been supportive to all in the back when they are I’ll and discard them like trash making fun of them while there in their sick bed. I just waiting for the entertainment news announcement to report that American Pickers is over!

  34. Ben Whitehead on January 13, 2023 at 9:52 am

    Bring back Frank!!!!! Show is not the same….

  35. GR Texas on January 13, 2023 at 9:52 am

    So is this a German TV show? Just noticed all of the names.

  36. Larry j on January 13, 2023 at 9:53 am

    Wolfe has the big head syndrome.

  37. Big Bear Hungry on January 13, 2023 at 9:54 am

    Frank wants every thing cheap. Never liked the man. To be honest, Both are a jerk. They want to make the money on something and when the seller tries to make a little they get mad.

  38. ABCDE ABCDE on January 13, 2023 at 9:56 am

    So many fakes here on the frank sympathy train…here’s how you can tell.

    They all are saying they’ve haven’t watch American Pickers since frank got fired.

    Yet right before during & after their comments stating that they haven’t watch the shows.

    They’re complaining that all the episodes with Mike’s Brother Robbie.
    Jersey John.
    Danny D. ect
    are not any good.

    Well how would they know unless they’ve been watching the show & episodes…so which is it Fake sympathetic comments
    Fake sympathizers.
    Just FAKE BOTS most likely created by fritz himself.

  39. Jade Juhasz on January 13, 2023 at 9:56 am

    #TEAMFRITZ

  40. Matthew Salomone on January 13, 2023 at 9:57 am

    Frank was the reason I watched the show. He seemed to real and genuine. The other guy seemed fake. American picker sucks without Frank. I will never watch American pickers again. I hope Frank gets his own show.

  41. Case Roberts on January 13, 2023 at 9:57 am

    When I first started watching the show I thought they were lovers, and they met their secretary at a gay bar.
    Later my sister seen the skinny one at a restaurant in East Dubuque, she said he was with his wife 😂

  42. Robin Eriksen on January 13, 2023 at 10:02 am

    Frank has way more personality than Robbie. I don’t watch it anymore.

  43. Malek Abujaber on January 13, 2023 at 10:03 am

    This show had a charm showing friends and family grow together and become successful, feels empty now.

  44. toddness on January 13, 2023 at 10:03 am

    Team Fritz. i suspect Fritzie might have an alcohol problem, but he should get his back fixed, lose some weight, and goto rehab IF the booze is indeed an issue. He was a co-founder, even if he was never the leader.

  45. Kellie Bales on January 13, 2023 at 10:03 am

    I think Mike is an ass hat. We love you Frank Fritz. You were the star of the show.

  46. Maximillian Yoder on January 13, 2023 at 10:04 am

    I tend to agree if you’re around someone for a long period of time you tend to need a little space I would like to have thought that they would take a little time away from each other so they can appreciate each other’s friendship I will miss Frank

  47. Johnny Ford on January 13, 2023 at 10:06 am

    I met Mike and Frank in Beaver Dam Ky in 2019. Mike was very outgoing and friendly. Frank on the other hand was ready to rush, unlike Mike. I did take a photo with them and 5 other photos of their first van with the big lips sticker on it.

  48. ABCDE ABCDE on January 13, 2023 at 10:06 am

    The way many see it today is getting a drunk that was going down the wrong way on a busy freeway putting other drivers & their families in danger from a head on collision.

    Only proves frank DOESN’T care about anyone & The History Channel & their producer’s had…had enough of franks fiascos & took the correct action.

    By firing frank instead of sweeping franks drug & alcohol abuse under the rug because if they did & frank went on another drunk drive down the wrong way on any street or freeway & potentially killing not only himself but innocent people…(CHILDREN OR THEIR PARENT’S)

    Everyone here on his pitty party bandwagon would be blaming The History Channel & Their Producers for not taking action the 1st time he had gotten drunk & endangered the lives of other’s.

    ""SO IT’S A GREATEST & RIGHT DECISION THAT THE HISTORY CHANNEL MADE""

    ""THEY GOT A PROVEN (DRUNKEN DRUG ABUSER) OF THE STREET, THAT 100% HAS SAVED LIVES""

  49. IGM Infographicmedia on January 13, 2023 at 10:07 am

    Don’t do drugs kids 😮

  50. Ryan on January 13, 2023 at 10:07 am

    Well I can tell you one thing over watching the show for some time Mike used to get an attitude cuz he’s cocky and thinks that he’s all that and he’s not but Frank needed to try harder with his appearance and I think that’s what the main thing was with Mike and him for the weight difference
