About the series

Appalachian Outlaws is a docu-series reality show that spotlights the life and work of diggers, growers and middlemen who harvest and trade ginseng in the Appalachian Mountains. Produced for the History Channel by Original Productions, the series initially debuted on January 4, 2014 with the second season premiering on February 2, 2015.

For centuries the mountainous landscape of the Appalachians has been a cultural barrier, shielding its inhabitants from the influences of the outside world. But a precious crop grown in the region — ginseng— stirs up a frenzied race to harvest during its short two-month growing season. At the heart of the show are ginseng buyers and competitors, Tony Coffman and Corby Patton. In Appalachian Outlaws, whoever controls the ginseng, controls the mountains — and night Coffman nor Patton are not afraid to get down and dirty to show who’s the real king of the hill.

Current season and possible renewal

In season 2 of Appalachian Outlaws, viewers got a rare glimpse at what it takes to acquire and trade ginseng. From diggers to growers to buyers, every day is a matter of survival for those who make their living trading this rare root. Fans followed Tony as he struck the biggest deal of his life — a new client who placed a 2000 pound order. Meanwhile his biggest competitor Corby will stop at nothing to topple Tony’s empire and rise to the top. With a 5.4 out of 10 rating on IMDb, its highly likely that the network will decide to give the show another chance with a possible renewal of Appalachian Outlaws season 3. Fans will have to stay tuned for more updates.

I agree with all these other people who took an awesome show off the air and it seems like you're not going to bring it back and I also agree play American Pickers way too much that stuff is played out people out there watch those more about the struggles they're going through not something that two or three people stumble upon and it makes them rich that's not the rest of the world bring back the show this is why I stopped watching the History Channel and more towards the Travel Channel because the History Channel has traveled off path of actual history documentaries and good shows like this you guys are idiots for not renewing the show I hope you read the comment with regard Anthony

The best Reality Drama show History ever made or any channel made with a great build up of stories in season 1 & 2 only to get pulled. Those few years from 2013 to about 2016 were the best for outdoor type reality shows. This one ecspecially with its played up drama in the very real dramatic world of ginseng digging. The only reason I think it got pulled was it had alot of gun play and promised violent retributions which usually ended in a moment of laughter as the worst outcome never happened. Such a shame the show got cancelled and too many years between will leave us always wondering what could have been.

Hubby and I absolutely love Appalachian Outlaws! Most awesome show that History channel has aired, my opinion anyway.

I can understand why it wasn't renewed though. I don't really think it had anything to do with ratings.
Maybe the actual situation of the ginseng, how long it took to mature. Plants being stolen after they were discovered. People who watched maybe trying their luck at ginseng hunting. You never know.

I do know that the plants aren't cheap. And it takes a long time for them to mature to a proper growth. The older the better, so maybe, just maybe there is a legit reason for not renewing Appalachian Outlaws. But if you are not renewing because of ratings, then History channel, you are full of [censored]. I know it's better than 4.5 out of 10. Where are your rating tallies coming from??

I stumbled on to Appalachian Outlaws
something about the show, I do NOT believe its all staged
they "act" too well, for it to be all made up
I would love to go to WVA and meet the actors
I relate to them, because of some mountain experiences I had
and the beauty of the hills...even though I am not from the hills!
Its a fun show, even if I have to watch reruns....BRING BACK THE NEXT ROUND OF SHOWS!
Soon

I just got into this show this winter and I'm hooked ….. but I had no idea it was only 16 episodes in total. Please consider a 3rd season for this show. These folks need the help. It's a rough ride. Know it's dangerous but please do consider restarting in 2019. I guarantee my household WILL be watching. For now, we are just waiting.

Appalachian Outlaws is a great show. Watch it every Sunday morning, even though it is nothing but re-runs. So many people want this show brought back. Why not renew it for Season 3 ?

Too bad they cancelled the best show on tv. If History channel won’t bring it back at least have the consideration for the fans who love it to sell it to another channel that will give the people what they want. I’m sure there could be another station that would take the ratings this show would command. Please work out something that would make everyone happy. History channel is my main channel I watch I will always watch History channel please sell the rights to someone else and give me a reason to love you more! Thank you!
