Antiques Roadshow, which has been on PBS since 1997 and was based on the 1979 BBC show, showcases people who bring their possessions to be appraised by experts, who tell the objects’ stories and let their owners know how much they’re worth.
Antiques Roadshow is going where many reality shows have gone before: a celebrity edition. Over three episodes, 17 celebrities will have some of their treasured possessions appraised.
Antiques Roadshow executive producer Marsha Bemko on how much appraisers are paid, how the show is filmed, and why it made a major change this season.
