Go batty with the Pawn Stars when a piece of original artwork from the 1995 Batman-Spiderman crossover comic swings into the shop. Will Corey and Chum come out heroes and capture this comic book memorabilia, or will their Spidey-senses fail them? Then, Rick checks out a deadly Revolutionary War halberd. Will he walk away with this deadly weapon, or will it be a losing battle? And later, when Chum's complaints inspire a casual Friday at the shop, will the Old Man dare to dress down?.
Pawn Stars is filmed in Las Vegas, Nevada, where it chronicles the daily activities at the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, a 24-hour family business operated by patriarch Richard Harrison (or "The Old Man"), his son Rick Harrison (who opened the shop with his father in 1988), Rick's son Corey (who has worked there since childhood), and Corey's childhood friend, Austin "Chumlee" Russell.
The series depicts the staff's interactions with customers, who bring in a variety of artifacts to sell or pawn and who are shown haggling over the price and discussing its historical background, with narration provided by the Harrisons and occasionally Chumlee. The series also follows the interpersonal conflicts among the cast.
Numerous local experts in a variety of areas also regularly appear to appraise the items being sold or pawned.
