Scattered on their table were what appeared to be oysters on ice, wedge salads, hot sauces, and multiple beverages. Each of them had subtle smiles on their faces. “With the boys in Cincinnati Ohio… @jsrestore @rjwolfepicker,” Mike captioned. THREE MUSKETEERS Fans flew to Mike’s comment section to let him know that they were stoked that History Channel stars were back together again. Many begged to know when American Pickers’ new season would premiere also. “When is the new show?,” one person asked. Another inquired: “Love watching you guys! When will the next season air?” A third fan also questioned: “I hope everything gets worked out and you start filming new episodes again.” That particular commenter earned an actual response from Mike. “Filming another 40 episodes now started last month,” he replied. BIG DIP American Pickers’ fanbase is still going strong, irrespective of the show’s viewership. The show’s ratings took a massive drop despite the show’s desperate attempt to boost viewership after fan-favorite star Frank Fritz, 57, was fired from the series. American Pickers returned on Wednesday, January 4, with Mike, Robbie, and Danielle Colby, 47, after being off the air since September. The U.S. Sun can exclusively reveal episode two of the season 24 premiere brought in low ratings. The January 11 episode had just 797,000 viewers tune in. This was a massive dip from the season 24 premiere, as 943,000 fans watched the episode. RATINGS CRISIS This came after the show’s desperate attempt to boost ratings by moving the episodes from Saturday to Wednesday. The episode also featured celebrity guest Jack White from band The White Stripes, though the addition didn’t help boost ratings. The season 23 premiere in January 2022 brought in a whopping 1,050,000 viewers. But viewers tuned out towards the end of season 23, as ratings dipped for the August 27 episode to 829,000 watchers. The series took a week off and returned on September 10 with 928,000 viewers. The September 17 episode brought in just 762,000 ratings. This was the lowest-rated episode since the series returned on July 9 after a break. Fans turned to social media after the episode aired to demand fan-favorite Frank back. One person said: “American Pickers without Frank is like.. hmm watching the Patriots without Brady. Kinda sucks.” One person wondered: “How’s Frank doing?” A third demanded: “Bring back Frank. We miss him.” Another exclaimed: “It’s a New Year! Bring Frank back! please!” But show host Mike gave hope that fan-favorite star Frank could return to the show after suffering a debilitating stroke in July. While visiting Washington, DC in December, Mike was asked by Capital Paparazzi if he would be willing to make amends with Frank who was fired from American Pickers in 2021. He revealed: “Frank and I are friends, he was just at my brother’s graduation for his kids right before he got his stroke. “If anybody’s thinking about Frank, they should be praying for him.” When asked if he would ever make a return to the popular History series, Mike shared: “I would hope that he’s gonna be back on the show, but right now he needs to get healthier. “There’s absolutely hope – 100%.” He laughed off his rumored rift with Frank, saying “that’s absolutely not true.” Mike shared the snap on his social media account[/caption] Many fans asked in Mike’s comment section when American Pickers would air again[/caption] Mike revealed that the American Pickers team was in the middle of filming[/caption] #American Pickers’ Mike Wolfe shares major show update in rare photo with brother Robbie after declining ratings https://ift.tt/nGHf530
