Did Mike Wolfe Subtly Confirm That American Pickers Season 24 Is On The Way?

History's "American Pickers" is one of those shows you can watch endlessly and never tire of. There's just something fascinating about a show that takes its viewers across the United States to hunt down all kinds of antiques and trinkets from the unlikeliest places. Not to mention, along the way, you get to learn about these objects, including what use they had in their glory days and what they're worth all these years later. Considering how much stuff is strewn about the country, it's not surprising that "American Pickers" has stuck around for so long.

Debuting at the start of 2010, "American Pickers" has experienced a level of longevity that few titles in the world of television come close to reaching. As of August 2022, it's up to a staggering 23 seasons and left the 300-episode mark in the dust long ago. Sure, in the wake of longtime co-host Frank Fritz's departure from the program, the show has struggled somewhat to maintain strong ratings, but even still, it shows no sign of slowing down. Its fanbase is still enormous, and the vast majority are likely eager to see how long the series will continue to produce new episodes.

Luckily for them, "American Pickers" staple Mike Wolfe may have subtly confirmed that Season 24 is indeed on the way.

The American Pickers team may have begun work on Season 24

In an August 13, 2022, Instagram post, Mike Wolfe dropped a major hint that production on "American Pickers" Season 24 has begun. "@americanpickers Crew getting busy at @thirdmanpressing Yesterday in #detroit Can't wait for y'all to see what we have rolling with Jack," Wolfe wrote, accompanied by a photo of the cast and crew standing outside of Third Man Pressing with the Antique Archaeology van beside them. Many in the comment section were quick to assume they were out filming Season 24, but at the time of this writing, confirmation that another batch of episodes is coming is nowhere to be found.

Hopefully, by the time Season 23 of "American Pickers" draws to a close, we'll receive word on the fate of Season 24 from History. After all, the show has fans around the world who'd love to see it continue, and Mike Wolfe is right there with them. In an interview with CBS News in 2020, he explained that the production is a joy to film — not just because of the items, but because of the people who own them. Upon confirming to interviewer Lee Cowan that they're the source of his passion behind it all, Wolfe spoke on the minds of collectors and how intriguing they've proven to be throughout his years as a television picker.

Even though History has yet to announce "American Pickers" Season 24, Mike Wolfe's passion for the show and his recent Instagram post are encouraging signs that it's on its way down the pipeline.
