This show is the WORST. I am especially upset because I am a fan of the original show.
This show fails in pretty much every single respect at making a reality TV show.
I should say reality-ish because this show is obviously totally fake. I'm not going to take them all the way down to a one out of ten rating just for that because tons of reality shows aren't exactly real. But this one takes the case. Shots of conversations but then another camera clicks on and you see that the camera we just saw a shot from is not there. Empty hallway or lot. That means all these arguments, conversations and confrontations are 100% staged.
That's probably why the bidders (actors) all seem so fake on this show, because they and every moment are. Their performances are wooden and pathetic.
So if you're not really caring if it looks totally fake then why not at least get decent actors?
Why not tell decent stories? It's the exact same story every time. They buy a locker that has something in it (obviously an interesting and or valuable piece that has been planted there). They take the thing to an "expert" friend they just happen to know. They cash in. The staged, fake arguments that are boring get settled but who cares because they're obviously fake and boring?
Why does every Canadian version of a show have to be so completely inferior?
Wearing a Hawaiian shirt and having a girl pretend to be a giant b- witch does not mean they are interesting characters.

Watched one episode then got through about 1/2 another one before I was so disgusted I have to turn it off. Not funny, not informative and not entertaining.
- Ten lines are needed really? It only takes one line to say that this show sucks. - This show is not entertaining. - This show is not funny. - This show is 100% fake and this show is 100% not real. - The bidders on Storage Wars Canada all suck. - The stuff they find on this show sucks. - This show is way too boring. - This show is way too cheap. - The conflict between bidders on this show is all fake. - Still not ten lines? Why do I have to write so much? - The jokes on this show suck. - Everything on this show sucks. - This show is too slow and so boring it hurts. - Every time any of the bidders talks about anything I want to punch the screen.
This show is such a pale comparison to the original series that I dare say I feel like I am lying to myself and everyone else just by calling it a show. It's not a television show at all, it's just a great big fat lie.
The people on it are fake and obviously just giving lines and doing what they are told to do. Maybe they also do that on the "real" show but on this show the things they do are cheap and stupid anyway and these people aren't nearly good enough to "sell" what they are doing and seem real.
I can't believe how stupid and boring this show is or how much I dislike every single person on it. Well two I don't hate but I certainly don't like or identify with anybody, this show just stinks like crap.
Does anyone actually watch this "reality" show and actually believe it is at all real?

I thought the original Storage Wars was an OK enough show. Obviously like most "reality shows" a lot of the action was staged and the characters on it were real people who weren't the best actors but at least they were interesting and funny on occasion.
Just lifting that formula that worked should have been easy enough you would think but Storage Wars Canada fails in every way. Worst of all are the stories they have and the writing. The rummaging cast are not given anything really interesting or funny to do or even just lines to say, and they are 100 times worse at acting than the original show's cast. They didn't find anything interesting or funny, the people finding it weren't interesting or funny, the experts they took their finds to weren't interesting or funny, the conflicts and stories they were given weren't interesting or funny.... were the writers asleep at the wheel the entire season? Seriously a middle school drama class could have come up with better stuff and funnier lines.
I'm surprised this show was even put on television it was so bad, but luckily the plug was pulled. Mercifully I would say.

- TriviaIn the opening credits the different bidders appear making a bid. Including the auctioneer Don Reinhart, all them (Roy Dirnbeck, Paul Kenny, Rick Coffill, Cindy Hayden and Ursula Stolf) use the right hand to bid. Bogart Kenny is the only one who appears not biding.
