Gold Rush: White Water is officially done based on the latest updates making the rounds. What do we know about this shocking announcement, and everything else that this entails?
Gold Rush: White Water Was A Big Hit With Fans
Even in modern times with modern audiences, there is a fascination that the masses share when it comes to searching for gold. This is the case with Gold Rush and Gold Rush: White Water. The possibility of finding a lot of gold is an adrenaline rush for both the miners and the viewers, and it has been something that keeps viewers coming back for more.
Just like the original Gold Rush, Gold Rush: White Water scratches that adventurous itch for audiences. Braving the wilderness and the elements in the hopes of striking it rich is a primal instinct that a lot of people share. So, it’s not a major shocker that this show has been a hit.
Gold Rush: White Water Surprisingly Canceled
It turns out, based on the latest updates making the rounds, that Gold Rush: White Water was officially given the boot and canceled. The program filmed nine seasons for Discovery, first airing in 2018. A ninth and final season of the show filmed last summer, and it is currently in post-production.
Based on an email sent out to crew members, Line Producer Jonathan Knapp said in this email: “for now the series is on indefinite pause.” However, in the same email, he also went on to say that Discovery “may look at bringing the series back in some form in the longer term.”
So, while this may leave the door open for something else down the line, at least for now, they are hitting the indefinite pause button on it.
Fans Had Been Rooting For The Show To Make A Return
Even though the door seems to be left open for something potentially in the future, many fans will be disappointed with this news. Previously, before this recent news was announced, a lot of fans took to social media to express their desire for the show to return.
- At that time, one person wrote: “Is White Water coming back? It is my favorite show and always rooted for the crew that showed some grit and determination which was very inspiring.”
- Another person said: “I hope they come back. I don’t care if they find gold and make their money from the show, what they do is just so unique and fun to watch. Gold is a bonus, the show is the real value.”
Unfortunately for fans of Gold Rush: White Water, this is not good news, and they won’t get to see the rest of these adventures continue, at least for the moment.
