The Real Reason Storage Wars Hasn't Been On In Years

With all that said, is Storage Wars really gone forever? While lawsuits and failed spinoffs don't exactly make for an enviable reputation, there is a reason Storage Wars ran for 12 seasons in the first place. And there's also reason to believe it may come back again sometime in the future.

When the series first premiered in 2010, it did so as a spate of shows that focused on the resale and pawn shop industries. Shows like Pawn Stars and American Pickers, which premiered around the same time, are still on the air, as are some long running staples of the genre such as Antiques Roadshow. The premise of Storage Wars is one viewers clearly love, and considering its place in a still-thriving genre, it's not too outlandish to imagine it staging a comeback.

In their interview with TV Shows Ace, the Nezhodas even alluded to the fact that they would be interested in returning. While speaking about whether they would do another season, they said, "We would participate if it makes sense at the time. I guess we will cross that bridge when we get to it."

If A&E could get a few of their classic cast members back and find some engaging new buyers, perhaps fans would eventually get Storage Wars season 13. However, for the time being, that's nothing but speculation. As things stand currently, the show is like so many of the storage units it used to feature: abandoned.
