The show is great, been watching it since season 1, but Google play are scam artists and thieves. I've seen many complaints about this same issue of not being able to watch episodes when you have paid 30$ for the season. You get millions of people's money and still have to scam us. Google play sucks

I've watched several seasons on Google Play and other sources. The delivery of each episode is very sporadic. For instance... today is 12/20/16, the last showed aired on 12/16/16 but still not available on Google play. I bought the entire season here but had to pay $1.99 to watch it on Amazon Prime this week...actually two days ago and it's still not on play. Next season I may just buy it from AMAZON PRIME!

Don't buy Gold Rush on the play store. The episodes are uploaded 2-5 days after they're available on other platforms. Often they will upload a previous episode instead of the new one "on accident". I wish I could get a refund.
