Mike Wolfe had been hinting at an end of American Pickers since last year, and now he seems to be urging viewers to tune in and watch it. Ever since Frank Fritz disappeared from the show, the ratings haven’t been great. At the moment, fans wish things could have been different because they don’t all like Robbie Wolfe much.

Mike Wolfe Seems To Prepare For The Show Ending

History Channel fans already think that the show will come to an end soon. Mike seems to lead the way in dropping hints that it might end. Last year, he shared about buying a property with a pizza place on it. Additionally, it seemed like it might attract people because of the pergola, karaoke stage, and firepit. He’s in his 60s now, and traveling around looking for treasure isn’t something he might want to do for the rest of his life.

Mike Wolfe probably thinks ahead because last year, the ratings for American PIckers dropped. Certainly, Mike and Frank Fritz seemed to be a good team. However, Franks’ replacement, Mike’s brother Robbie, isn’t doing all that well with viewers. Robbie and Mike both blamed the network for the lower ratings, but even a change in slots didn’t make a huge difference. Additionally, it seems that Frank Fritz might not ever return to the show after his stroke.

American Pickers Urged To Watch The History Channel Show

Season 25 of the show premiered in January, and the ratings seemed dismal. Without much hope of Frank returning, it seems unlikely to pick up again. Are things becoming desperate with viewers showing little interest in keeping the History Channel show alive? Taking to his Instagram account ahead of Wednesday’s show, it sounded that way.

Mike Wolfe shared some photos of himself inside an old railway carriage and in his caption, he wrote:

Last call too (sic) watch tonight’s episode of @americanpickers on the @history channel! Don’t miss this train at 9/8c! 🍿 #antiquearchaeology #americanpickers

In the comments, American Pickers viewers responded, and those who did, claim it was a great episode. Therefore, disinterest is not universal, by any means. Here are some of their reactions:

  • Mike, your mind surprises us by being able to visualize things as if they had come out of the factory. And pass on to us the imagination of the object in perfect condition. Congratulations and thank you!
  • New episodes have been awesome Mike!!
  • Great episode!!

While those comments seem nice, only 31 people wrote anything, and there were not all that many likes. So, in a way, it seems a bit underwhelming for a lot of people.

What are your thoughts about Mike Wolfe resorting to urging his followers to go and watch the show? Do you think the ratings might be tipping down again? Will The History Channel cancel the show? Shout out in the comments below, and come back here for all your American Pickers news.
