Overview
Junkyard Empire is a reality television series that first premiered in 2015. The show focuses on turning piles of rusting junk into a money making machine. To accomplish this, Andy Cohen serves as a scrappy and ambitious leader who must balance his own pie-in-the-sky drive with his father's down-to-earth perspective. For the day-to-day work, Cohen is backed up by a group of talented, but not exactly mainstream, characters. In order to succeed as a team, all members must find the proverbial diamonds in the rough, chase down deals, and add value to what others throw away, embodying the hustle rather than just doing work.
