OMG Chumlee Please Stop
I can totally see why Chumlee was such a hook for the show to blow up in the first 2 or 3 seasons, MAYBE 4. But now, after so many seasons (Even if has only been 6 years), it's really getting old how Chumlee always says dumb things, like beyond dumb and not even cleverly dumb (To where it's funny) things like saying "Prescription" instead of "Description" or him acting like an immature child all the time. He always dicks around with Rick but when they pick on him he gets all mad like a 5 year old.
I don't fully blame him though, no boss is that stupid as Rick who keeps putting responsibilities on him that he knows Chumlee will not do or mess up then gets mad at him like it's the first time he did it. And usually there's a stupid fanboy who says "Well maybe he's trying to show him he still believes in him." oh please. That would make sense after maybe like 2-3 times, but it's at least every other episode that happens. And mind you, Chumlee has been working at the shop since no later than 2006-2007. Family friend or not, a good and smart businessman/boss would know what to do to remedy that problem of his of being lazy and childish on the job. ie: Throwing an auction in the back warehouse and charging $5/head, Assigning him to do something then he disappears for 3-4 hours only to not come back then be able to come back to work like nothing ever happened, asking for something no employee (even a close family friend) would ask for then moping and whining like a stupid child all throughout the episode until he gets it, etc. He's 33 years old!
The only saving grace for this guy is that he's been a family friend of Corey's for almost 20 years and they have taken him in like he was actually blood too or even better. But even after 9 seasons, there still is no logic in keeping him aboard in that capacity for so long. I know it's scripted but 1. Chumlee's stupidity needs to be scripted better and 2. Please, History Channel, stop having him do the same stuff every episode now! It's really getting old.
I think now, because of the overt repetitiveness of the show, Chumlee has become one of the weakest things about it when he used to be one of the strongest and most fun things about it. They need to get rid of him or have him grow up and find other ways to script fun into the show. Believe me, any good writer would be able to do that. Just sayin...
