I feel like part of this family. I have family in west va. But they are good people and are more like Mike Ross, always willing to lend a helping hand when ever someone needs it. Not the kind of people that are ready to steal from anyone who has a little stash on hand in case of hard times. LOVE THIS SHOW SOON MUCH, JUST WISH I COULD TOUCH MIKE ROSS'S AND GIVE HIM A BIG HUG FOR ABOUT 5 HOURS LOL.

You all had to go and mess up a decent show. You have ruined it, so scripted and BS. We have enough village idiots in this state with out you all wanting to come in and making us look more ridiculous. Come on now I liked the first show. More believable than this crap. I do feel sorry for those guys hell they have to be getting something out of this show. I know if u get caught digging up peoples ginseng they will let you know about it. But all this stalking men in the woods is stupid.

So very typically scripted. Even worse last season glorified stealing from someones farm. Also, way exaggerated the price of green making a lot of ill-informed folks take to the hills to take every living seng plant they see, to include two prongs and plants under 5 years old (the law says in most states the plant has to be five years old, some states 10 years old). We need to teach people to respect this endangered plant. Didn't see any good stewardship such as planting the berries, the law in EVERY state.
