In Collector’s Call, Whelchel explores the rarely seen private collections of the nation’s biggest collectors of pop culture and nostalgia memorabilia, enlisting the help of professional appraisers and experts to value what the prized collectibles are worth. The experts try to tempt the collectors with a trade, offering a coveted item that could be the perfect addition to their collections. The collectors must then make an agonizing choice and decide if they’re willing to give up an item of their own for a new addition to their collection. In season 5, host Lisa Whelchel (Facts of Life, Survivor) hits the road to meet with a new crop of world-class collectors, giving viewers an inside look at astonishing collections ranging from the precious to the priceless. This season, Whelchel tours collections celebrating “Weird Al” Yankovic, Star Wars, Pearl Jam, Bozo the Clown, Survivor and more.
