Gold Rush: Parker's Trail

Parker is undoubtedly a talented and driven guy. But, man is it difficult to watch his mood roller coaster sometimes. His colleagues all seem like good guys, but it is uncomfortable to watch Parker moan and generally behave atrociously to towards his friends. Why do I want to tune in to watch someone constantly be rude to those around him? Obviously this is a challenging undertaking for the team, but I don't see the rest of the expedition spiralling down into a dark funk of utter bummedoutedness. Maybe he'll chill on series 2!?

Series not too bad so far, Guyana a bit disappointing. I really want to see this series taking Parker to Australia to prospect in the outback with metal detectors and use a dry-blower to find gold. Would make sense too as his girlfriend is Australian.

Just finished last episode of Parkers Trail season 6. What a business deal Parker made with Cancio. Poor Cancio desperately needed some help with the deal they struck. Parker played a poker face which was obvious to me but not Cancio. Parker gives him 25 k and takes 50% of the gold Cancio and family find!! WOW!! Parker pry spends 25k everyday or 2 for operating costs in the Yukon. Parker kept saying what a gamble it was for him to the Camera, Not hardly, that's chump change to Parker. He'll Parker seen the gold and found Cancio's recovery rate to be INCREDIBLE!! A gamble?? Not hardly. Parker struck the deal of a lifetime, now I hope he can sleep ok! I remember when Parker moaned, groaned and whined when evil Tony come to collect his royalties every gold weigh and I think it was like only 20%.😜

Out of 10 espisodes 3 were literally throwaways. if you don't have enough content to fill 10 episodes you should have just stuck with 6. watching this 3rd season was a pain. it's like some poorly planned travel show.

A lot of effort and planning has gone into making this programme to make it work logistically. It's a shame it doesn't live up to its potential. I'm a big fan of the gold rush series, I think they work because most of the characters are as interesting as watching the gold come out of the ground. This is where this series fails for me, Parker is true to himself, I don't feel like he's playing to the cameras he's pretty dry and quite moody at times but I accept him for who he is and quite like him. Tyler's an ok addition although I think she lacks a bit of presence and personality to carry of her roll. I can't workout why Wow check out the sluice Dan is almost carrying the production or seemingly so. It doesnt work for me at all, either shoot shots and shut up or get rid of him, he's incredibly irritating to watch. Could be so much better with a bit less drama and less cheese. Ok if you don't feel like using your brain too much on a Sunday afternoon.
