    I think out of all these type shows we watch, Gold Rush has got to be the worst. :
    I think that crown goes to Sarah Palin's Alaska...

    I was a foreman for one of the largest mining companies in the world. It is hard to keep an operation running with a well funded and skilled maintenance team. Those poor sobs where doomed from the get go. Who knows if it is real though. If it is real, I am pretty sure having a camera crew on the job saved Dorseys life.

    It seemed that Dorsey was loose with his safe operating procedures. I don't think I ever saw someone start a saw like he did who wasn't on his 7th beer. Ugh.

    Also, I remember he got dressed down for cutting into the power cord on the electric grinder. The grinder hadn't wound down yet and he set it on the ground...right on top of the cord. Double ugh.

    He's a city slicker. Usually they are obsessed with safety though, strange. I havent seen the show in a while, what made him leave? His wife was shown on the commercial crying talking about people putting their hands on her husband, that made me laugh.

    Sarah? Hot? Banshee, you need to get out more. Granted, she's better looking than Hilary Clinton or Barbara Bush. But hot? Nope.
