Hilarious. It's even funnier if you know that Chekov's Gun is a principle of dramatic writing that basically says "Don't pull it unless you intend to use it".

I like Antique Roadshow as it is but there's also the aspect similar to watching crashes happen during races or when the ball hits the pond in golf tournaments.

I've seen more than once the person would say they picked it on a trip to China or wherever for a decent amount of money because they thought it's a Ming vase and they got one over the ignorant vendor only to be told it's a cheap replica. The look on their face is priceless.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
