This episode was so full of syrup and sap that I will find it hard to rerun..
all this relationship crap..dustin and his creepy lady...escalante getting on with the little boy...the pregnancy thing and the remolding of escalante as a good guy....not for me

maybe the AHA and PETA should spend one day as a claims adjuster for equine insurance. Maybe they'd gain some perspective.

I wish the producers had balls, so because some PETA morons get mad they cave? I have horses that have reared up and flipped over, maybe I should quit my job. I guess there will no longer be any horse shows or movies, a horse might get hurt. This is so ridiculous, if any of those animal rights wackos REALLY knew horses, they would know they get injured in their stalls, in the pastures, in trailers and just plain walking down the road.

Viewership had decreased to 600,000 - It was a convenient way out of a mess, that's all.

Luck Shut Down For Good

Needless to say, this type of publicity is the last thing this sport needs.
