Tiki on Antiques Roadshow - General Tiki

If it wasn't for all the Aloha shirts and Muumuus worn by the participants, I would have thought this was shot in a mainland city. I can't imagine why the show's producers would come to the islands, then spend 90% of the show on Mission furniture, pocket watches, and European travel posters. What a letdown. The next 2 shows are also in Honolulu, so I guess there's still hope.
