'Pawn Stars': What's Wrong With Jackie Gleason's Limousine
It was certainly an exciting moment when a limousine verified to have once belonged to Jackie Gleason pulled up to the shop on "Pawn Stars" (Mon., 10 p.m. ET on History). The owner had kept all of the original features, including the old television and antenna set-up.
He even pointed out a few cigar burns inside that may well have been the result of Gleason's cigar smoking, though there was no way to prove it. He was asking $35,000 for the car, which sounded like a pretty good deal considering the historic value of it.
But when an appraiser came in, it lead to a disappointing result. "Brother, I’m gonna say pass," he recommended. It turned out that there was some barely noticeable rust damage on the car that would have raised the total cost too high after repairs were factored in. At least the guys got to see it.
See what comes in next on "Pawn Stars," Mondays at 10 p.m. ET on History.

To say that television is going to be replaced by online video -- or by anything else -- both misinterprets the facts and misunderstands the very definition of TV.
In my humble opinion, "TV Time" is a crucial tool to re-open the lines of communication and tear down the silos we've built around ourselves. This New Year, make time for "TV Time."
From a marketing standpoint, a good theme song is a home run. Branding wrapped in a memorable, stick-in-your-head melody? That's a priceless commodity in a TV landscape littered with noise and copycat ideas.
One of the first things you see when you enter the Brooklyn Flea at Skylight One Hanson is the bright and bold display from Jaron Cupak of Jarontiques.
No matter what kind of television you have -- whether you stream it on your iPad, or your Wii, whether you DVR it, or watch it live -- it's not a question of if your TV will annihilate you -- the question is when.
