i think it was all set up, for having no money they sure had plenty of nice stuff to drive around in during the off season to scout. I think discovery is going all in and tossing some money around. To much just seems set up to me

I'm sure they found 10x the amount of gold they actually showed last year. Really wouldn't make for much drama if they just dug a hole and struck it rich. AND Mr. Taxman would be knocking down their door trying to get their share.

Oh, I don't think that it's any secret that there is a lot of creative editing and direction that happens with these types of shows, but this one has jumped the shark.

Another one that is pretty bad is American Guns. But I still watch. grin

They should have hired professional actors to do this, because their acting is so forced is laughable.

I enjoying watching the show just to see how the process works and just to see a little gold.

The Hoffman crew no doubt is getting a BUNCH of money from Disc, not to mention the ton of money they probably got over the off season making appearances at places.

IMO though, this formula for "reality" shows jumped the shark quite a while ago. They are basically all the same.

Honestly, I can't believe you guys fall for any of these shows. Ya might as well head on back to the WWE, it's more real than the carp you guys fawn over, seriously. crazy

"B-b-but it's real to me!" smile

I agree! I'm watching just to see the process. What does it take to find GOLD! I just want them to pull nuggets and shut the heck up! grin

Not one word was said about the equipment they shipped up to their other claim in the Klondike that they could not mine,now they are going to the klondike hoping to find a place to mine????? I thought at the end of last season it was fairly clear they wouldnt be mining porcupine creek. With the shark jumping and scripted drama Iam still going to watch a few more shows.

Thanks for pointing that out SFC. I'm sure they have a claim already picked out, as you know that equipment they bought is sitting somewhere. It also looked like they had a new wash plant they loaded up at the beginning of the episode (black and yellow machine).

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
