Please don't spend money on this.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

It's boring. Every other gold mining related show is better than this. Take away "Gold Rush" as it's lead in and viewership will be limited to family and friends of crew and cast members. I gave it a chance, watched the first 6 episodes, but it just isn't interesting.

This series was pretty entertaining (although Dustin has become a jerk) but does anyone else think the $50K loan was just a scripted plot device that Discovery used as an excuse for Todd to make guest appearances, add drama, and boost ratings? One reason I say this is because I don't get the worker that Todd sent to "observe" (forgot his name)... are we supposed to assume that Todd was paying him to work for Fred? That doesn't make any sense. Second, they only seem to talk about the $50k loan during occasional (what feel like) scripted segments. It felt like the director would show up and say "today we are going to shoot the scenes where you are worried about the loan". Since both Todd and Tony showed up it the series, it's not hard for me to believe that Discovery had a script for Parker to show up too but it either got cut out or Parker refused to do it.

I have watched this show twice now and am thoroughly disgusted at Dustin's behaviour. The way he speaks to people and treats people is not acceptable. Especially his father. I realize that this show, like all the other reality shows, are scripted and if this is the type of behaviour that sells a show then it is wrong. If Dustin needs to be portrayed this way then he needs some help. Who would want to be portrayed as an egotistical abusive person for money. Dustin, if you think that makes you a hero, I've got news for you. I had so hoped the son of your father's girlfriend would have smashed you in the mouth, but to his credit he didn't. You sooo deserved it! Yes, richlpz, I have never written a review either, but this show is not acceptable. Glad I am not the only one that thinks it is deplorable behaviour.

There is excitement, suspense but most importantly, likable characters. The shows in the Gold Rush family are staple entertainment for my husband. I'll maybe catch a few minutes of a show here and there. The main reason I'm not a bigger fan is the characters themselves. As soon as I feel the need to yell at or smack someone for their attitude or stupidity I leave the room. Not so with White Water. I actually binged the whole first season with him and did not want to unleash any of my violent tendencies! Can't wait for season two!
