AND the article at TCLane's website was written May 11, 2011. Where's the current news on the new SW Dallas show?
I'm still trying to find out WHEN the Dallas show will air...still looking like the July 20, 2011 SW premiere is with the original cast and still in California.

Come on Travis....the next time you're talking to your Dallas property managers let's get the SCOOP !   ;D

That sounds right as the last batch of California episodes would take July-August to exhaust themselves before going into reruns.

My theory is that the DFW stuff will run its course while the NY and FL episodes are being filmed, then on to them.
Maybe they will extend each city by 2nd seasons.....THIS COULD GO ON A LONG TIME !

Here's the written promo for SW Dallas from the A&E website:

*******
NEW YORK, NY, JUNE 20, 2011 - The stakes are higher; the rivalries more intense; the drama more explosive. Get set for a wild ride as everyone's favorite treasure hunters return for an action packed second season. All-new episodes of A&E's most watched nonfiction series "Storage Wars" will begin airing Wednesday, July 20 at 10pm ET/PT with back-to-back premieres.

"Storage Wars," which follows teams of bidders looking to score it big in the high stakes world of storage auctions, ranks as A&E's number one series of all time among adults 25-54. During its first season, the series averaged 2.8 million viewers per episode and peaked at 3.8 million.

In season two the hunt continues as the fortune foursome blaze through Southern California storage facilities -- but with new enemies and higher stakes, finding auction treasure has never been more difficult. Dave Hester opens an auction house, forcing a sizable investment that could destroy his "Mogul" status. Troubles at home sideline Darrell Sheets' business, causing the "Gambler" to take desperate measures. And the rivalry between them both has never been more heated. Meanwhile, Jarrod and Brandi open an annex to their shop, laying down the gauntlet to their bankrolled competition. And after selling rap impresario Suge Knight's clothes, Barry Weiss is just trying to stay out of trouble. Hollywood memorabilia and vintage guitars are just a small measure of the plunder to be found and in this world where cash is king and winner takes all, it's anyone's guess who will come out on top.

"Storage Wars" is produced by Original Productions, a FremantleMedia Company ("Ice Road Truckers" and "Deadliest Catch") for A&E Network. Executive producers are Thom Beers and Philip D. Segal. Jeff Conroy is co-executive producer and Dolph Scott is series producer. A&E executive producers are David McKillop and Elaine Frontain Bryant.

I have been unable to obtain any information in cast members. Auctioneer Walt Cade is not answering any questions. I have phoned people I know are with the show, even called employees that I know should be affiliated with Storage Wars Dallas, Nothing. All I know is several are from the Tyler Area! Nothing but pure secrecy. I cant even confirm where these auctions are.

I got a response from Walt this morning, he said he couldn't provide any information on the cast. I'll be at some Dallas auctions in a few weeks and I'll do some digging.

BigBuyGal I have a few questions for you.

I have noticed that you have put your two cents in on several storage auction websites and Yahoo Answers questions. Are you a professional buyer or are you affiliated with any storage auction related websites?

Check out this article posted Sunday in Towers Over Texas by Bill Bam
 
towersovertexas(dot)com/2011/07/24/storage-wars-dallas-taping/


Went to the storage auctions at Abby Storage on Military Parkway in Dallas this past Friday and low and behold Storage Wars Dallas was taping the auctions. There were 14 units up for auction and must say the prices on the units that had some value was crazy high. $250 units going for $600 and $100 units going for $400, no way to make a living buying stuff like that at retail price. Funny how people get so carried away when they think they have a chance to get on TV.

The two guys who seemed to be the main characters of the show seemed very dull. They had very little to say and really only talked when they were promted by the director for the camera’s sake. The auctioneer, Jackie Sutton, was the star of the show. Jackie is a real cowboy, stetson and all, and his Texas drawl is as real as they come. He runs the best aucitons in the Metroplex, very organized so there was little waiting time. Even with the show taping (and retaping) he was able to get 14 auctions done in about 1.5 hours. Well done Jackie!

The current tapings are due to air sometime in the fall when Storage Wars Dallas premieres (not sure if that is going to be the exact title of the show.) Hopefully these auctions make the final cut and an episode is made out of them. There were some great moments through the day. One was the finding of a “loaded” 22-caliber rifle in a locker, which was removed and unloaded for the cameras. Unfortunately any firearm that is visible (handgun or long gun) is removed and not sold, per Texas law. The other highlight of the day was the facility manager’s son, he was the spitting image of Jackie, all dressed in his stetson cowboy hat and cowboy boots. He followed Jackie around all day and “help” him call the auctions. The main characters did buy a couple units so hopefully they find somehting good in the units to make it worth while for A&E to air this as a show

Hi BigBuyGal.  That was my post on towersovertexas, which is also my website.  Unfortunatley my database crashed this past week and I have lost all my data.  In any case I am here to verify the above info and can actually add to it.  We attended another aution today where SW Dallas was taping.  Below is a cut and past from another post I made on another site, sorry to tired to retype it all.

I have been to two of the SW Dallas tapings. The first had Jackie Sutton as the auctioneer, this was at Abby Storage on Miltary Parkway a couple weeks ago. Today Walt was the auctioneer, and it appears he was filling in for Jackie. This was at Abrams Skillman Storage. It appears the first names of the buyers are Bubba and Rick (Rickie?) as a team, a lady named Lisa, and a guy named Vic. It also appears that Roy Williams the former Cowboys DB (not the receiver) is also involved but not sure he is a regular, he won a unit at todays auctions.

I just went back to see this article again, and it is now gone. Any reason why you removed it?
