Paul Brown, who runs Gallery 63, with employees Cindy Shook and Jon Hammond.
I wrote about Gallery 63, a local auction site in Atlanta, in March when Discovery was shooting a pilot for the network. The reality program (along the line of “Pawn Stars” or “Miami Ink”) has gotten a thumbs up for 14 episodes to air this fall and it has a new name. Originally “Auction King,” it now has the more pun-tensive name “Bidder Rivals.”
The cable network is now back at Gallery 63 shooting episodes all summer. So if you have something oddball or unusual you’d like to auction off (and also want to get on TV), come on in any time between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. The cameras will be rolling. And no worries: if you just want to bring stuff in to auction and don’t want to be filmed, you have that option as well.
“We are stoked,” said owner Paul Brown. Business is up significantly since word got out and he’s thinking of adding staff.

I think Lucas McCain (The Rifleman) should be taken under consideration.

Somehow Paul Brown doesn’t look old enough OR mean enough to take the place of Pawn Star’s Old Man and Cindy Shook sure doesn’t look like Chumlee. Pawn Stars works not because of the premise but because of those two ‘characters’.

Hell, I’ve got more character in my pinky than Chumlee could ever have…
