The ‘Alaskan Bush People’ Premiere Is Delayed and You’ll Never Guess Why
Hey, so remember last week when we told you there was going to be boatloads of new Alaskan Bush People episodes coming to Discovery Channel in May? Yeah, well, about that…
The dedicated but overly-optimistic folks who make the programming decisions at Discovery Channel didn’t factor Brown Luck into the equation when they put the ABP Season 8ish premiere on the schedule for May 11.
The latest Discovery Channel schedule reveals that the new season will no longer premiere on May 11. In fact, it won’t premiere in May at all. We have no idea when — or if! — the show will be back.
Will the new regime at Discovery be as patient with the Browns as the old one? Discovery’s recent order for Book of Hines suggests that the Browns may soon be given the boot. And Park Slope’s failure to deliver an ABP season on time doesn’t help the argument for keeping it on Discovery’s lineup.
Last year, Park Slope slapped Season 7ish together quickly, while the events of Mother Ami’s cancer diagnosis and treatment were unfolding in “real time.” Most of the action last season was of Mother Ami going to the hospital in Los Angeles and sitting in bed all day. Game of Thrones it was not.
Maybe Park Slope thought they could pull off the same turnaround time in a whole new state building a whole bunch of new stuff with the same budget as last season. The accountants clearly did not set aside enough funds for the Browns’ squabbling, pigheadedness, laziness, and pizza.
Billy, Ami, and Bear went to Los Angeles recently for follow-up medical care for Ami, which probably also caused a delay in production. Or maybe production went more smoothly with Billy not there to micromanage everything.
Complicating matters further, Noah and Rhain finally made their presence known in Washington, despite our desire to see them remain in exile forever. Rhainoah’s meet and greet in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, was sparsely attended and their honeymoon gift registry came in short of revenue projections. Noah must be desperate for some of that sweet, sweet Discovery Channel dough. We’re not sure if Billy and Noah have smoothed things over yet, or if Billy is allowing Noah to be smug and arrogant on camera this season.
Also, Matt is now living in a trailer down by the mountain. Apparently, living with his mom and dad was cramping his style.
But there comes a time in every man’s life when he must leave his family’s rented house and venture out on his own in a trailer across the street from the production office of his dad’s crappy reality TV show.
Until the Browns and Park Slope get their dead ducks in a row, we’ll have to just enjoy Billy and Mother Ami’s ringing endorsement for DeFelice Dentistry of Spokane, Washington. Because if DeFelice Dentistry is good enough for the Alaskan Bush People, it’s more than good enough for your family.

Oh please let it be cancelled! Discovery Channel has lost all credibility by airing these liars scammers and thieves. Their 15 minutes are long up.
I cant wait for them to dissappear and watch karma get to work. I will never understand how the fans of this show can just ignore all of the lies. The Browns are NOT the good Christian family they claim to be. There is a special place in hell for people like Billy that lie about being a Vietnam vet, and Ami who claimed to have stage 4 lung cancer yet are completely cured 7 months later. Their kids are no better. The rotten apples didnt fall far from the rotten tree.

I have to agree. these people are also as dumb as a buncha rocks. they go out hunting for miles around when the food is coming to them (bears). the only one with any really brains is Joshua. Matt was argumentative as hell and Billy was a stupid control freak. just a buncha of dramatists. remember them trying to raise the windmill? only an idiot could have failed at that. and that boat was one step from a floating casket (I'd rather use a raft made from palm fronds). I also like their spotless clothes give me a break! yeah look at these other Alaskan shows THEY'RE far from spotless! these people don't even live in "Brown town" the place was built by Discovery on least land.

I feel the same way.....about idiots like you that rant and rave and throw an absolute tissy fit over, of all things, a T.V. show. Put down the smart phone, it's not working for you.

My Husband had stage 4 cancer and it was gone in 6 months after treatment. Yes it could come back but for now it’s gone . People only seem to hear about the people that die from cancer and not about the people who survive it. Good luck amie I hope you give up smoking .

not anymore this stupid show is gonna get the ax. remember dual survivor when it first came on? well the guy that was NOT in bare feet was found not to be truthful. but the difference between him and these clowns was that he knew his stuff. these people are clueless. why hunt for food when its coming right to you (bears)? shoot a few of those and its food for a whole year. They ate in Hoodah instead. I like shows that have some "reality" in them this thing was strictly created for "show".

Since when is not falling for lies negative? Watch the show, enjoy the show if you like it. Just don't believe a word they say. Does it not bother you that a widow sent Billy her life savings, over $19,000 because she watched the episode when the Opal sank and "they lost everything for the 30th time" and she felt sorry for them? Or when her son found out and contacted Billy Brown to ask him to not cash the check and Billy refused? ((BTW, the Opal sank years prior to the them having a TV show, so that was another lie perpetrated that resulted in many fans sending them gift cards to replace all they lost.). So this poor gullible woman LOST EVERYTHING because Billy Brown is a liar, and a scam artist. I suppose you also believed all the bull shit when the "boys" (grown ass men who should be out on their own working) claimed on TV they had no idea what the internet, or a cell phone was. Okay, explain this then
Bird had a You tube channel 10 YEARS AGO to hawk her dad's book of lies.

There are more, do some research. Everything they say is a lie. They didn't build a cabin, they didn't own "Browntown" Ami didn't have stage 4 lung cancer. Hell, if they said it was raining, I would look outside before believing any of them.
If you want to be even MORE gullible and watch the show go right ahead. Follow Rain on Instagram. She often "accidentally" posts their address so that fans like you can send more gift cards to them.
SMD Discovery channel should be ashamed for airing this crap.

I agree with everything you said. However, if some dumb ass sent them 19 large and it was everything they had...well, that person can’t be fixed! An ode to one ron white “you can’t fix stupid”

The family of grifters deserves their own TV show outlining the lying and deciet they have spewed. Most people are either unaware or consciously ignoring the truths about these clowns. They are the modern day gypsy carni-esqe confidence-men.

That's good to hear. I hope they never come back. I am tired of their fake ass bullshit. If they don't get back on TV that means Parkslope is out a shitload of money from filming the last few months. Haha assholes. Hopefully the Brown's don't get another dime. Lying sacks shit.
