Well said Richard. We actually turn down more TV requests than we
accept these days.

Especially if you are going to show off a high value collection on
national TV...
I've never allowed a crew to come to my house, even though I've had
several request it, but then again my appearances are always work
related.
I'm not saying no one should do this. Just be careful, ask a lot of
questions about how they plan on presenting you and your collection
and if you feel uncomfortable in any way, from what they ask you to do
or show to how they speak to you and your family, thank them and show
the crew the door. They need you much more than you need them, so be
sure you are treated with appropriately.
Good luck.
