Moonshiners

An interesting (although shallow) look, into the production of Moonshine. Although there is a lot of talk about the heritage and dying art of making moonshine, it's obviously the (repeatably labeled 'TAX FREE') money, that is the primary motivation for the moonshiners involved.

The shows strongest asset, is its many likable personalities. However the desperately bad attempts by the producers, to edit the show into suggesting, that the moonshiners are constantly on the verge of being caught by the police, really sticks out and make the show seem more like another bad run of the mill reality show, rather than what it could and should be: A honest depiction of the life and challenges, of modern day moonshiners.

People in these areas still carry on this tradition and this show tells of some of the problems that exist. Sure moonshine is now available in liquor stores but are no comparison to the hill variety. These guys are not actor's like some of the other so called reality shows. If anyone thinks this is easy give it a go. They could be in a pawn shop and bring in a bunch of so called experts and then pay about a third of what stuff is worst Maybe the guys could dress in womans clothes and get into a drag race. This is a good show that shows what things use to be like and still is in parts of the country.

Good regular people.Better then other stuff on TV.

Moonshining was a way of life in America at one time! It's part of this great country's history! Entertaining show, I love it!

What happened to the original idea behind moonshiners? All the other spin offs are not good. Boring, silly and totally scripted. The episode with the confederate is ridiculous. Please return to the original show with new episodes asap.
