According to the great and powerful Instagram, our favorite band of Canadian RUSToration experts returns for a 4th Season, starting Feb 18th, 2021 on Stack TV and Amazon Prime. The show is still produced by History Channel Canada, but moved it’s distribution contract from Netflix to Amazon. And in case you missed out on the previous 3 seasons, here’s a quick Bingers-Notes Recap!
Season 1
Rust Valley Restorers (RVR) Season 1 sets the stage by following Rust Bros owner Mike Hall’s attempt to restore and sell the over 400 cars he’s amassed over his lifetime. The show takes place on-site at Mike’s property along the Trans-Canada highway in what’s known as “rust valley” nestled in the Rocky Mountains region of central British Columbia. At 62 years old, Mike (above:center) with the help of his son Connor (above:right) and best friend Avery (above:left) has decided he needs to thin the herd of his “metallic hallucinations” – a task that is nearly at a point of costing him more than its worth. This show is a diamond in the rough to say the least, but that’s part of it’s charm. >> Check out the full review!
Season 2
On May 8th 2020, Netflix in partnership with History Channel Canada released Season-2 for our enjoyment! Season-2 pickups up right where we left off last year, but with a slight change. The mantra of “saving the business at all costs” isn’t as ever-present as it was in Season-1. It is now replaced with the idea of “restoring cars that the average person can afford” and the 42-minute documentary/reality TV format starts to take on a “personal build” (for a customer) along with a “shop build” (which will be flipped to pay the bills) rhythm. One other change comes in the re-organization of the business, Avery has been brought on full-time and promoted to shop manager (over Connor); in charge of projects, parts and purchasing. >> Check out the full review!
Season 3
If you have been following along with our previous seasons of Rust Valley Restorers you’ll remember that we were left somewhat… unfulfilled, earlier this year. And what I mean by that is Season 2 was only 6 episodes long and ends on a twist. Leaving Avery Shoaf, Mike’s best friend and shop manager, throwing down his gauntlet proclaiming his independence from RUST BROS. WHOA! You could call it a cliff-hanger… but does a RUSToration show really need that? It’s been about 6 months and we were legitimately surprised to see Netflix release another 6 episodes on 8/21/2020 labeled “Season 3” for us to enjoy and maybe-just-maybe get some closure. >> Check out the full review!
Season 4
We don’t know much… but we know we love youuuuu! And we’re super excited for the return of RVR with it’s 4th Season. Even with the content distribution change, we’re still going to cherish every minute of the show and be sure to bring you a binge-worthy review! Stay tuned for more updates. And look forward to RVR on it’s new home on Stack TV and Amazon Prime starting Feb 18th, 2021.
