Moonshiners

• Fab1b

  

  Fucking hillbillies!! Love the show started tonight on Discovery.
• RedIs4Heart

  You have to watch any show that has a full grown male character named Tickle. Plus, they keep flashing back to the legendary Popcorn Sutton. Great show. I have to say, I don't understand how the law enforcement can know they are shooting with moonshiners but let it go. I know this was in the summer, but they give equal time to the cops and the shiners.

  Can't wait until one of the cameraman gets his ass shot.
  
  What was up with the old woman and the shot gun on the bridge? Missed that part.
• RedIs4Heart

  Yeah, it was like some vigilante justice. They old man and woman drive the ATV onto the bridge as the Tim was trying to cross. The man got off and shook him down while she brandished the shotgun. They basically told Tim not to put a still near their land.

  Another episode tonight as well

  "If you love your country, you're gonna have to love moonshine" makes no sense, and drives me crazy when I hear it. I have it DVR'd, but I have not watched it yet.

  Why do you hate your country?

  Everytime they were interviewing Tickle dude looks straight fucked up! Not sure if he is high or drunk or both?

  I think he was drunk off his ass whenever he was talking.

  After you watch his full statement it will make more sense. They only used one line of what he said.

  This on at 10? I caught the end yesterday and couldn't figure out why they were following the moonshiners and the cops. Wouldn't the cops just ask for the videos?

  How is Discovery allowed to have a show like this?
• Fab1b

  

  ^i asked that last night to, thinking they either made some deal or they filmed the moonshiners and cops separate?????
• chicago510

  

  Maybe its all fake. But why would a moonshiner or a meth lab or a weed farm or anything volunteer to be on a TV show? Derp.
• OQB

  

  I guess it's kind of the same thing as Intervention when they show people doing meth and other illegal drugs.....

  What put this point over the top is that the one guy is the chief of the volunteer fire department. So now after watching this show, everyone will know exactly who it is and that he moonshines. At least if it was some random hillbilly that hid out in the woods, he'd have a better chance of not being "revealed".
• Fab1b

  

  When that happened with the Fire DP my mind said this has to be faked or there was some sort of deal cut with the law!

  He's a volunteer ff, what does that have to do with the law?

  I don't think this was setup to be a multiple season show, not with the same guy anyways. I'm sure he's under some amnesty
