The Liquidator

Too bad, I loved this show in the beginning and would have given the first seasons a perfect score.

The show crashed on season 4 and became vulgar, demeaning to women and so fake with bad "catastrophy" acting.

If you want to enjoy The Liquidator, just stop watching after season 3.

Maybe they changed the production team on season 3 but the show was a pile of s?&it like they say so often!

It is really too bad because I was glad to see that it was a Canadian show.

I do not know why they insist on staging up "reality" shows but the people are not actors and it shows. They should stick to what they do best.

One night approximately 5 months ago and channel surfing Cable TV, bored, with nothing to watch (Curse of being a night owl, sometimes) at 4:30AM Eastern Standard Time on a Friday late at night (Technically pre-dawn, to some) on a local station known as WPIX 11/"The CW" I came across a half-hour program named "The Liquidator", and for some reason I was INSTANTANEOUSLY hooked!

Naturally afterwards I was hoping that I'd see via my Cable TV Guide that "Jeff" and his crew including Warehouse Manager "Ronnie" and Apprentice "Daniel" would be on Monday - Friday at this odd 4:30AM timeslot so I could program my home DVR to "Record Series", however, to my utter dismay WPIX 11/"The CW" only had the singular meager 30 minute slot overnight on Friday's, so had no choice but to settle as is.

The Liquidator beyond being entertaining as you watch just felt like it had a particular "je ne say quois" (I probably BUTCHERED that, sorry, French-Canadians of this app/site! Only know English) of a better quality to it both in how it was filmed and the "cast of characters" in stark comparison and contrast to Season Forever of A&E's "Storage Wars" or TruTV's of yesteryear "Hardcore Core Pawn" (The MOST tightwad, RIP-off family and business from Detroit's 8 Mile I've ever seen during the height of the pawn/storage craze" when every network was wanting a piece) and History Channel's OG long-running "Pawn Stars" (Which I like but lesser so nowadays) all filmed in The United States. Canada simply put just has some damn good television!

Unrelated to Liquidator, specifically, during the beginning of COVID-19 in 2020 - Present other programs that are non-reality TV but procedural dramas like "The Coroner" that The CW continues to air each new season on a delay, "Transplant" being shown on NBC, and "Nurses" also imported from Canada to NBC yet so far disappointingly they haven't followed-thru with showing more than just Season 1, but are all GREAT and produced very well.

Loved watching this show, still watch reruns when they're on. Wish they would bring back the show. I think the RTC changes destroyed all small tv shows.

After you start watching this show, you just want more. Its a true reality show, not a soap opera pretending to be reality. Its all about the deal, buy low, sell high. Making money, that's the name of the game.Its raw, fast, straightforward. If you like a true reality show, then this is a no-brainer. They buy everything they can make money on, i mean everything. Only problem is you can only watch it in Canada. It should be sold to some US channel like Discovery or History, so it can be viewed worldwide. People don't know what they're missing. Thumbs up big time, and always waiting for the next episode. Warning: Watching this show may cause addiction. If u feel you're getting hooked seek professional help FAST.

I think you are referring to Season 1 Episode 2. Jeff (the Liquidator) and Jose (furniture wholesaler) are in the midst of negotiation. According to the captions and also to my ear, Jose states: "I know this is your business. I understand the nature of your business. Try to be gentle, okay. Don't rip me off." Jeff then states: "I'll come down there right now and if we can do a deal I have a truck, I got a little bit of money, and ..." At which point Jose interjects with "Do you want to bring my pants down already, or you're going to come in a gentle manner?" To which Jeff states "Probably in a gentle manner."

Your insinuation that the producers, or CityTV/OLN as the distributors, condone rape is at the best improper. Based on Jose's comment, clearly he is making reference to the common theme of one person obtaining more than 50% from what seemed a fair deal. While a crude comment (not unexpected from late night reality TV), he continued with the also common theme of consensual sex for favors that may not be all that pleasant for the one who did not get the best deal (getting f'd from behind). Oh my God it's time to over-react!
