“The Great Santini Brothers” highlights the ins and outs of the moving industry, and some of the stickier situations George and his crew have gotten themselves into. Once, he recalled, they had to quickly and discreetly pack and move a woman’s belongings after her husband kicked her out of their apartment and changed the locks on the front door — but not the balcony door. The woman climbed up a ladder and opened the door, allowing George and his movers to get her things out fast.

Moving large items around Manhattan is a challenge all its own. There was the man who needed his motorcycle moved up to his fourth-floor apartment. And the family who wanted a large dining room piece moved out, but it wouldn’t fit in the elevator. To remove it, George recounted, he and his crew placed it on top of the elevator, then stopped the elevator in between the basement and lobby and pulled the piece from the elevator shaft.

When a History Channel representative first contacted George a couple of years ago, he thought it was a prank call and hung up. It wasn’t until his daughter Nicole took the next call that they realized it wasn’t.

After meeting with History Channel executives, Taliercio was told last December that the show had been given the green light. Six episodes were filmed, from February to May.

“It’s still hard for me to believe because I don’t do anything special,” George said. “I’m a mover.”

Jacquelin Romanelli, who has lived with George in East Rockaway for 10 years, said the show has gotten a very positive response. “The whole family interaction is genuine,” she said. “It’s a great show.

“It’s New York City at its best, with amazing feats,” she added.

Two more episodes of “The Great Santini Brothers” will air over the next two Sundays, beginning at 10 p.m.
