Gold Rush Alaska

I watched it once for around ten minutes and to me it was theatrical. I can understand the Yukon gold rush where it all started in Alaska but it also started in Eureka California and surrounding areas such as French Gulch. It also started in Gold Hill Oregon, the Rogue River and its surrounding areas and I'm sure there's plenty other towns where an abundance of gold have been found in the USA and Canada and is still found today. My take is that all these reality shows suck as I'd rather be entertained by naked women :)
