The show "Moonshiners"

Great show with a RZR 4 shown last night

I love that show.

i like that show

I love that show but I can't help but wonder how it could go more than one season with the same people. Now the ATF etc know who is doing it and who to watch. I know he is trying to go legit but there have to be some red flags up for him now between ATF and IRS.

i wish they was more than one episode

Its an entire season, several episodes

I actually had some of Popcorns shine many years ago. It was good stuff

I just wander if it was just 4 tv to show how they do it a few years ago they done a show on popcorn no to long after they busted him just dont c them taking that chance

The ATF must not be allowed to watch it on tv

I keep waiting for Chris to land in a helicopter and 'confiscate' it!

That sounds about right. Ive been hearing about Popcorn for years. I didnt realize he killed himself right before he was to go to prison.

The show is all faked, if you believe the Virginia Alcohol Beverage Control or
"ABC" if you search it, you find out discovery channel did not make it they only show it. The show was developed by the main guy Tim and another small film company made it. He was a real moonshiner but is using this as a tool to push his legal brand he is trying to get investors for. Just another boy in the weather balloon scheme Wonder what they did with all those gallons of banana water Hey thats some shine ChrisC would drink!

Discovery's "Moonshiners" television series is about people who brew their own moonshine and local authorities' efforts to track them down. The show includes actual western Virginia residents and state agents.

Virginia Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control spokeswoman Kathleen Shaw told The Associated Press in an email Thursday that viewers have asked why the state is allowing a crime to take place. Shaw said the show is a dramatization, and no illegal liquor is actually being produced.

"If illegal activity was actually taking place, the Virginia ABC Bureau of Law Enforcement would have taken action," Shaw wrote.

Guess I should step in as far as the TV magic goes....

Well number 1. The show was actually filmed 3 years ago from when it was aired now.....

Number 2. The 2 "seasons" Were all shot withing 6 months and they just pick and choose what all goes on. God only knows how much footage was actually shot. You would be surprised.

Number 3. My shine that i ummm borrow from a guy that knows a guy who knows a guy yada yada bs. Its his son and 2 nephews carry on his recipe (popcorns). We drained 8 jars of it on new years. Its dam good stuff.

RIP Popcorn sutton

The ABC is half true half fake. Its alot for tv but there is still some slight truth to em but for the most part the coverage of them doing the "major bust" is well not fake but.... fake.

If you want to see a show thats all faked watch storage wars..

all of the made for tv shows are fake. every one tater tots. anybody know how popcorn got his nickname?

I like fake boobs too.

You confiscate it........bring it to a ride........the rest of us will drink it.

No bullshit, I am actually sitting in my living room at 4am watching an episode that my wife DVR'd for me. Jet lag sucks, but the show is good!

Damn I'm glad you're home safe and almost sound. That jet lag won't last too long and you'll be good as new. Welcome home buddy and thanks again!

I've seen neuromax put away his fare share of shine.

I work with a guy who drives over from Miami and they pay about $100 a quart for it. He had never heard of Apple pie. Poor guy.

I thought it was legal to make if you didn't sell it?

What it is or isn't,that,s how it's done. Very entertaining. Don't be a hater! Welcome home LT. Hope to ride with you this year. Thanks again for your service.

Anybody had the banana? Doesnt sound to good.
