"FanAddicts! is a fun and eye-opening look at movie fandom taken to the extreme that actually gets into what drives these fans to collect," said Lisa Lucas, Executive Producer of Original Programming at ReelzChannel. "While there is always an element of passion and dedication, what sets the FanAddicts! apart is that these fans have an insatiable thirst for more. We're also excited to have classic Batman Adam West as the voice of the series given he is the ultimate kitsch superhero and makes for a perfect pairing with beguiling, guilty pleasure TV."

"FanAddicts!: Harry Potter" on Wednesday, August 28 at 10pm ET/ PT.

He even donned a Hogwarts' uniform and an English accent in an attempt to "be" Harry Potter. He now holds the Guinness World Record for the largest collection of Harry Potter movie memorabilia. But can Steve say goodbye to some of his most prized possessions to raise the money he needs to move to Los Angeles and achieve his dream of becoming a graphic artist and novelist? Watch as he takes his collection to an appraiser who puts a price on the magical collection...but is Steve ready to sell?
