Gold Rush is one of the most popular gold-scavenging on Discovery and it seems like the series isn't slowing down anytime soon. The reality show continues generating good ratings for the cable network and season 10 managed to stay strong as well. So, now, many were wondering whether Gold Rush season 11 will happen or not. Here's what we know so far.
At the moment, Discovery hasn't made any official announcement about the renewal status of Gold Rush season 11. But, fans shouldn't be worried about that, given that the show managed to deliver good ratings. The series has also been a consistent performer for the cable network. Moreover, it has a free-flowing structure that allows the creators to keep going without worrying about the storyline.
As for the potential release date, Gold Rush season 11 may likely arrive sometime in October 2020. It can be noted that the show usually premieres during that month, with season 10 airing in October 2019 and concluded in March 2020. Viewers are also expecting a few more seasons since the adventures of Parker Schnabel, Rick Ness, and Tony Beets are enough to keep them entertained.
These three are likely coming back in Gold Rush season 11, along with their mining crews and families. It's also interesting to see what location each of them will choose in the next season to carry out their mining. The basic premise of the series is that Schnabel, Beets, Ness scour the remotest land just to achieve their American dreams.
The previous season raised the stakes even higher, with the miners dealing with major challenges, as well as difficulty in permits. It started with a huge crisis in the Klondike, so the three had a hard time as it would be risky for them to explore new grounds. Ness decided to move his operation to the mountains over the mining town of Keno City in Yukon.
Schnabel, on the other hand, had land troubles due to the water permitting issues. Despite that, he was determined to mine as much gold as possible. And as for Beets, he also faced permit troubles and depended on Monica, Mike, and Kevin to look for new sites. These are just some of the happenings in season 10, so it's exciting to see how the miners will deal with new problems in the next season.
Gold Rush season 11 will likely continue to follow the adventures of Ness, Schnabel, and Beets as they look for new and unexplored lands that would allow them to have a million-dollar payday. But since the renewal status hasn't been made, fans may need to wait for a little while. The trailer may also be released at some point, or after the renewal announcement.
