To be honest, Dave was a huge jerk and a bully, but he gave the show some spice. It became competitive, and the rivalry between the bidders grouped them together But he's gone. I think Darrel needs to shut his mouth about his $300k painting locker. Sure, it was cool, but come on! Move on with your life! As for Barry, he was always one of my favorites. Between his style in cars, clothing, friends and his attitude and how he usually bids, he made the show funny. Jarrod and Brandi used to be funny because they'd always fight, but now they just want "to save their store" so they're not as funny.
They lost half their cast, so now they have to bring in all these new guys. That guy with the accent whose name I can't remember, Ivy, and anyone else they can find. Personally, I hate them all. I liked the show when it came out, not now. When everybody teamed up against Dave. J&B fighting, Darrel teaching and Barry messing up, that's when it was at its peak. Without the show's comedian or villain, and with these new characters trying to act cool, the show is way too competitive. And I like competitive things, so that's saying something.
