What a GREAT show!! Its on right now on the Disco Channel.
Stars two guys that are ex-burgalers who break into your house, steal your crap, and you get to watch the replay on CCTV that is hooked throughout your house. They do not announce it, so it can happen at any time.
One guy watches from a van, while the other guy breaks into the house, steals whatever, and then after the people get all broken up, the guy pops out from the van and goes over the video. From there, the two guys help the people's whos house it is reconstruct a better security system. They just broke into a sorority house, the guy walked right through the front door as all the girls were upstairs in a meeting. He went through every room, taking about 2-3 grand worth of stuff from each, lap tops, purses, jewlery and other priceless items.
Good show, brings a lot of small things that you wouldnt normaly think of to your attention in your house.

interesting.....disco channel eh? now is this discovery, or is saturday night fever on next...?

i've been watching that show for a while. it is a good show. most people can't believe that anyone could get into their house but those crooks sure know how.

wtf is the disco channel? i watch it on tlc.

BigAls87Z28 · 02-15-2007, 05:52 PM

Disco = Discovery Channel, happy?

anyway, yes it is funny to hear "i didnt think it could happen to me." when doors and windows are unlocked and/or wide open.

They have done quite a few episodes in NJ.... Good show.

my buddie's a cop in New Brunswick and a few months ago he told me they were filming one on George St. im still waiting for that one.

edit: i wonder what kinda footage they got from the time they put the cameras up to when they actually robbed the place. haha

my 135lb rotty would have something to say about someone just walking in my house lol

WayFast84 · 02-16-2007, 09:29 AM

My favorite moment of that show was when they robbed a bed and breakfast place, the guy got his laptop stollen right in front of him lmao

firehawk1120 · 02-16-2007, 11:16 AM

I've never seen the show anyone have times when it is on?

Brando56894 · 02-16-2007, 11:47 PM

i watch that show occasionally, pretty good show. never knew most of them were filmed in NJ/NY.

1_Hot_SOM_WS6 · 02-17-2007, 07:59 AM

That is a pretty good show. I catch it on every now and then....not sure what time its on though.

DieselKickYoAss4Sure · 02-17-2007, 08:36 AM

mayby they should do an episode on stealing car jacks and mp3 players!

firehawk1120 · 02-17-2007, 09:14 AM

I actually lucked out and saw it yesterday. I gotta say the people on the show are pretty damn stupid. The couple and family agree to the show, then when they get robbed they start calling the police. What a bunch of dumbasses.

Then the lady is saying she can't believe he broke her window and didn't care about any of their stuff. How can he be so mean. He's a F-ing thief you nitwit. Then the father says he'd like to meet this guy because he has a few choice words for him. What did you expect they were going to come in, ask to borrow your key for the front door, and then tidy up when they were done.

Pretty lame show and the people on it are DUMB DUMB DUMB.

Some episodes are pretty good and some are so-so. It's been on for over a year I think. They will break into homes, businesses or whatever people volunteer for. They broke into a skateboard shop and really put a hurting on those guys.

Amazing show the one they had on tinite was alright seemed to be in Seaside Park, NJ. And the one with the bed and breakfast was great. You get robbed when your only 10 feet away.
