Scrappers

Reality Series, 2010
10 Episodes x 30 Minutes

Scrappers is a 10 episode comedic-reality show, which follows a group of scrap metal workers. Set in one tough office: the streets of Brooklyn, New York, each episode follows this crew of real-life competitors and friends who hunt for the best scrap in town. They'll find treasure in tons of twisted metal, paper, or rubber, recycling everything from old cars to building materials. What others might think is trash, they turn to cash.
 
From tough guy boss Frankie Noots who runs his business from his dilapidated van, to Sal the Barber who's training to become a mixed martial arts fighter when he's not chasing scrap, viewers will get to know these larger than life men behind the metal as they pursue the big score and get even closer to becoming the "Scrap Kings of Brooklyn".
