Apparently viewers can’t get enough of colorful personalities bidding on abandoned storage units. A&E says Storage Wars: New York was the network’s number one new nonfiction series when it debuted in January, and now they’re bringing out a new season packed with more bidding drama. Season one earned an average viewership of 2.9 million and proved to be popular with the adults 25-54 crowd.

Storage Wars: New York returns on July 9, 2013 with back-to-back episodes airing at 9pm and 9:30pm.

The Details on Season Two:

Storage Wars: New York follows a group of urban explorers in a modern-day treasure hunt for forgotten gems. In the nation’s most populated city, with its notoriously small apartments and storage dilemmas, there’s no telling what amazing valuables might exist within the storage units of New York and its surrounding areas. Joe P (“The Legend”), Mike (“The Hustler”), Candy and Courtney (“The Flame and The Firecracker”), Chris and Tad (“The Loud Mouth and “The Conscience”) and auctioneer John Luke are back, along with larger than life newcomer Big Steve. It is a constant battle to find and own the lost and precious items of the city, and when New Yorkers are bidding, a whole different attitude comes to the auction!

In the season premiere episode at 9PM, the buyers head to Trenton, New Jersey and Chris and Tad find a crate of fireworks that makes them wonder if they’ve found the best bang for their buck. Joe P finds out whether an antique hearing aid whispers the sweet sound of success or leaves him empty-handed.

At 9:30PM, the bidders venture out to Harlem, New York and Mike explores his feminine side with the purchase of a woman’s locker.
