American Pickers star Mike Wolfe got ripped for his new look. He sported scruff on the show, which is now a full-on beard. Some fans think it’s his way of sticking it to his former co-star Frank Fritz. As TV Shows Ace previously reported, Frank is recovering from a massive stroke.

Mike took to social media to ask fans for prayers. However, they don’t believe that he’s really tearing up over his old friend. They believe that he’s putting on act for the fans. Now, fans are calling out Mike for his new look. They told him that he shouldn’t knock the guy when he’s down.

What did Mike Wolfe do?

American Pickers fans aren’t a fan of Mike Wolfe’s beard. He took to Twitter to show it off. It all started when he promoted the current episode of the History Channel series. As TV Shows Ace previously reported, most fans took to his tweet to beg him to reconcile with Frank.

In a recent tweet promoting the latest episode, Mike Wolfe smiled as he held up a jug of whiskey. He wore a dark denim jacket over a chambray shirt. The 58-year-old rocked a salt and pepper look with a matching beard.

“Team @antiquearchaeology here!” Mike Wolfe tweeted. “ALL NEW episode of @americanpickers drops tomorrow night 9/8c on @history. Mike negotiates a price with Wes Boddie and Austin Pike for an A.P. Simms Fine Whiskey jug from the 1920s.”

Most fans were concerned about Frank. Some told Mike to bring his former co-star back on the show. Others told him to reconsider their broken friendship. However, one fan noticed Mike’s beard and felt that he was poking fun at Frank with his new face fur.

“Mike please get rid of the beard. Frankie is the bearded charmer!! This makes it look like you’re kicking a man while he’s down and that’s Frank. Lose the beard!!” the fan wrote.

Frank Fritz was the bearded charmer

According to American Pickers fans, Frank Fritz was “the bearded charmer” who connected with people that wanted to give up their collections. He had a way about him that persuaded them. Frank had a charming candor and a laid-back personality that had some describing him as a “modern-day recycler.”

Frank and Mike Wolfe were childhood friends who grew up with a passion for antiques. They pitched History Channel about the show, which is still a hit to this day. However, the latest episodes without Frank Fritz have plummeted to under one million views.

  1. Mike Wolf’s scruffy look is disgusting but I don’t feel it has anything to do with Frank. I think he’s trying to be hip but he just looks old. Shave it off.

  2. I dont think Mike has done anything wrong by growing a beard and to try to tie it in to Frank is ridiculous.

  3. It’s been a fun and sometimes learning experence – watching their TV show. Who are y’all to be analyzing and disliking their relationship? Get your own decent TV show and get back to me …

  4. Prayers are needed her and since mike wolf hadn’t called me and filled me in on his personal life and why Frank is no longer on the show I’m going to Pray for all involved

  5. I liked Frank on the show mike got a big head and wanted him gone . Don’t watch the show only reruns with Frank.

  6. I am an old biker. 57 years of riding and working on all types of bikes. Mike comes off as an arrogant know it all. He does know a huge amount about bikes but when I watched the show before Frank left I caught him in several mistakes. I don’t watch the show any more. It just seems like the Mike is the know it all of America.

  7. I miss Mike and Frank’s camaraderie. I don’t know exactly what happened between them two but I wish Frank would come back to the show.

  8. Why are we talking about a beard on Mike when Frank has suffered a stroke? I’m more interested in how he’s doing now and I am darn beard on Mike.

  9. I stopped watching AP when they screwed over Frank .
    Mike is a back stabbing a—hole who wanted Robbie on the show instead.
    Mike let the fame go to his head like so many do.
    From leaving his wife after cheating on her.
    To screwing Frank over then was for over a year pushing to get Frank removed so Robbie could be on.
    Mike is a low life family wife and friend wise.

  10. grow up i think he’s honouring his mate , not trying too take his place…….
    get well frank miss you ..
