I personally love this show. But Brad Kelly and his tweaker ways ruin it a little bit for me. Especially because he steals and rips his kids off and then he acts proud of himself for it. I really like Chris, he's the only one of the Kelly's that acts like a decent human. Andy probably wouldn't be as bad if his dad wasn't around. Andy seems like he's been beaten down pretty bad and Brad has taken the opportunity and molded this poor guy out to be his little lap dog. My favorite is Mr. Gold. More people should be like Shawn. He's kinda, smart, innovative and Dude finds the gold! Mr. Gold proves that you don't have to act like a tweaker dingbat to be successful as a miner. I like his dad too but man if we all don't wish his dad would give him more credit for being the badass that he is.
