For several years in Las Vegas, on local/independent station KFBT (now KVCW), of which he was part owner, Danny hosted Saturday Fright at the Movies, under the guise of "Count Cool Rider." This was a series showing old B-horror films. Quite obviously, the "Count" nickname stuck.
Yes it is. There are 3 Pawn Stars spin-offs thus far.
-The First was American Restoration (2010), featuring Rick Dale of Rick's Restorations, who was featured prominently in early Pawn Stars episodes. The American Restoration pilot revolved around the restoration of a beat-up old golf cart the Pawn Stars guys bought.
-The second Pawn Stars spin-off was Cajun Pawn Stars (2012), featuring Jimmie DeRamus of Silver Dollar Pawn in Louisiana. While similar to Pawn Stars in its format and execution, the show has no direct links/characters/etc. from the original show.
-Of course, Counting Cars (2012) is the third and most recent of these spin-offs. The pilot episode revolved around Danny and crew restoring a beat-up old Mustang the Pawn Stars guys bought, turning it into a replica of Steve McQueen's vehicle of choice from the classic film Bullitt (1968).
