8:00 PM EST, the TLC channel will be airing a 007 themed episode of Clean Sweep. Bond trivia and items will be shown.

What is Clean Sweep about?

[Glor (009)]

The guy in that Clean Sweep episode was at Spyfest and BCW6 last year. He is an actor that was in one of the Invisible Man movies.

The show takes people with a lot of clutter in their homes and helps them clean out the place and get better organized. It should be interesting. Hopefully they won't make him throw out any good Bond stuff. I might cry watching that happen.

Haha. My mother and sister occasionally watch Trading Spaces, so I've heard of this show. Hopefully not getting rid of the Bond items though.

That woman just put a Sideshow collectible in a pile to "Sell'!

[License To Kill]

So, how did it turn out?

[Qwerty]

Well they kept I'd say half the Bond items. Rest were sold.

[rafterman]

selling, ok, throwing away is not acceptable...

Yeah, that was mean! You have to imagine, that (especially for the older 007 films), EON or some company who had the rights to the items, could have gotten SO MUCH money for those. I mean, in fifty years, oh, what am i saying, how about now, there should be like a 007 Smithsonian where people can visit and look at the artifacts. That would be cool.

The woman wanted to throw away most of them.

She was so annoying. Watching her and her husband during the reveals was like watching a mom with her son at a birthday party "OH LOOK, YOU GOT A TRAY, OH A PENCIL CAN, OMG!!!!"


My mom commented the man had a large 007 collection, I turned to her and said, "Trust me, that aint nothing!"

[Qwerty]

Wasn't she a flake and a half?

"Oh honey, honey ooh look honey, honey...."

Bah.

The thing that really irked, was when one of the guys stated that James Bond himself would be happy with the ultra modern bedroom they designed, to which I said:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Yeah........right.

That woman just made me annoyed to watch it, almost stopped.

My wife watches Clean Sweep along with the 536 other home improvement shows out there and it's usually pretty annoying. I watched this episode without her.

I was kind of hoping the guy would have had some rare stuff like the toy attache case or a golden gun replica or something. Most of it, at least what we saw, was pretty common. Wish I could have attended the sale, though.

The thing I don't get about that show is if you want to keep something and know the evil Simon Cowell guy is coming in to force you to get rid of stuff, why not weed it out before he gets there? If that punk tried separating me from any of my Bond collection there would be a problem.

EXACTLY. You'd never get me and my room on that show.
