After a season off the reality show "Ice Road Truckers," Wasilla, Alaska, resident Lisa Kelly is back in the driver's seat Sunday nights on History
"I took a break," she tells Zap2it. "I'm ready to dive back in, have some fun. It's a crazy kind of life, so it was nice to have a break from it. I missed hanging out with everybody and having the fun that goes along with it."
In June 2012, when asked about Kelly's absence, executive producer Thom Beers told Zap2it, "We offered her a contract to return, and she chose not to. That's it. we invited her back. Love to have her. She's taking a year off, realizing that she might not be able to get another show. But she's an interesting woman. we liked her."

Lisa Kelly is not a woman who likes to stay put. Calling me from the road in Alaska, the "Ice Road Truckers" and "Irt: Deadliest Roads" star apologized for the crappy connection. "I just don't like to stay put," she admitted. "Always like to stay moving; that's me." Fans of the show (which returns for season seven Sun. June 9 at 10:00 p.m. Et on the History Channel) might have noticed that Kelly wasn't on deck last season (though she was on board for two seasons of "Deadliest Roads"). As for why she took time off, she insists if wasn't any...

It's like Nascar but with huge trucks, slippery roads, and a lot more talking to the camera. Okay, so the Ice Road Truckers-Nascar connection is only that somewhat might die in both, but that seems to be enough to keep people tuned in. The high stakes world of ice road trucking is filled with colorful characters testing their mettle on some of the most perilous roads in the world with tons of metal and torque pushing them around each corner. Prepare thy cuticles for some nervous munching. JustPressPlay has two blu-ray copies of the fourth season of Ice Road Truckers, and if you want to learn how you can win one - just keep trucking.
In season four, the drivers will tackle frozen rivers and swamps out beyond the Dalton Highway, hauling supplies to some of the most remote towns of the great white north. Reigning king, Jack Jesse,...

Season 4 of the popular History Channel show takes place back on the Dalton Highway in Alaska. As an additional wrinkle to this year’s hauls, the drivers are forced to travel over frozen rivers and swamps “off-road” in order to reach two remote Alaskan towns, Bettles and Nuiqsut. Veteran truckers Hugh Rowland, Alex Debogorski, Jack Jessee, and Lisa Kelly all return for the fourth season. They are joined by newcomers Greg Boadwine and Ray Vellieux.
Most of the familiar storylines that have sustained the show over the first three years remain intact. There's a "dash for the cash", Lisa's further attempts to be taken seriously, the newbies and their first runs on the ice road, as well as the continuing saga of the nemeses Hugh and Alex. Throw in Lisa's epic journey to recover her horse (yes horse) and a few unexpected scenarios along the...

While it’s true that most of us Rejects write about films because we’re not quite bright enough to deal with the real world, so we live in fantasy land. Every now and then though, one of us, in a moment of confusion, ends up watching The History Channel and accidentally being exposed to something that could potentially teach us. This scares us and to get rid of the memories, we gather up anything that reminds us of that unpleasant experience and give it away. What I’m really trying to say is that The History Channel, our buds, gave us a pretty sweet prize package to celebrate Ice Road Truckers: Deadliest Roads hitting the air and we figured you guys like free stuff, so we’re giving it to you. Part of this deal is that we do the monkey dance and make you read the official copy, which...

Ice Road Truckers has always been one of those shows that just missed me. Reality shows frequently have trouble getting the final experience to match up with their on paper sell, but Irt worked that problem in the opposite direction of most. When I first heard about the show, I couldn’t imagine the interest. Well, apart from a certain Nascar “maybe a truck will go in the drink” sort of interest. Amazingly, the show has delivered, and the ratings show that I’m not alone in thinking so.
Still, as I mentioned, the show didn’t completely hook me. The crew is taking things up a notch now with Ice Road Trucker Deadliest Roads, and it’s hard to deny that this one makes it difficult to look away. We’ve moved to a job hauling loads in the Himalayas, on roads where on average someone dies every 4.5 minutes.

If you thought the ice roads of Alaska were tough-trucking, you ain't seen nothing yet.
Lisa Kelly, Rick Yemm and Alex Debogorski of The History Channel's 'Ice Road Truckers' fame are leaving the frozen tundra of the Dalton Highway for the out-of-this-world trucking action of the Himalayan Mountains on a new spinoff, 'Irt: Deadliest Roads' (premiering Sun., Oct. 3 at 10Pm Et).
Look for the guys and gal to navigate the crowded streets of Delhi -- locals aren't very attentive to traffic signals over there -- and the Himalayan roadways, which date back to 206 B.C. The Himalayan route, first built for yaks, has historically connected Central Asia with South Asia and provided a bridge among the cultures of India, China, Afghanistan, Nepal and Bhutan.

"Irt: Deadliest Roads", is a new reality series premiering October 3, 2010 on History.
"..'Ice Road Truckers: Deadliest Roads', takes some of the toughest truckers from one of History's most popular programs and challenges them to haul their way through a new kind of hell on earth. 'Irt: Deadliest Roads' will test everything the ice truckers have learned in more than 40 combined years of driving, forcing them to adapt to white-knuckle road and driving conditions unlike anything they have ever faced.
"From the crowded streets of Delhi to treacherously steep, narrow and congested roads blasted into the mountainside, they're about to embark on an exhilarating, exhausting and terrifying adventure. India's Himalayan roadways are among the most historic on the planet. Dating back to 206 B.C., the Himalayas were an integral part of the famous Silk Routes, connecting Central Asia with South Asia, and creating a bridge between culturally and religiously diverse countries such as India,...

Wearing a sexy black halter gown suitable for the Hollywood red carpet, "Ice Road Truckers" hottie Lisa Kelly sure looks like Emmy material.
Not that The Dish Rag is surprised. We could tell she was model gorgeous even bundled up in a parka and jeans, driving giant trucks along steep, scary, icy roads in Alaska on the acclaimed History Channel series.
She said of the photo shoot for Esquire, "That was fun, but it was very cold out."
How does she feel about being a History Channel sex symbol?
"I don't know what other people are gonna think," she tells the magazine. "... It's interesting to put a woman's twist on 'Ice Road Truckers' and if that's how I'm perceived, well, it's not up to me."
Kelly is currently shooting another show in which she and her fellow truckers haul cement -- and sheep -- across India's Himalayas, which...

When Discovery Channel introduced The Deadliest Catch they may have irreparably altered the path of reality television. For one, it was actually depicting reality—albeit one very few ever encounter—and in a way that compelled viewership. How did it do this? It introduced a tension that no other reality series had been able to create: an actual sense of danger. Fear Factor featured a series of gross-out stunts that were highly supervised, relying more on its contestants’ own irrational cowardice than any real danger. Survivor’s title seemed to hint at competitors dying off one by one, but really, in the worst case scenario someone might faint from heat exhaustion and be flown home. Everything was just a bunch of immature people collected in a house complaining about one another. There was never any sense of danger or importance. At the very least, The Deadliest Catch had crab fisherman...

Let me say this right now: I grew up in New Jersey. This said, you should be aware that schools are closed for even a few inches of snow. People from New Jersey simply can’t drive in the snow. I don’t know if it’s just a mentality, or the fact that you are probably supposed to go below the speed limit or what, but we can’t do it, at least, not well. So I have a lot of respect for people who can, especially if they are driving on the most dangerous road in the United States.
The cast of Ice Road Truckers: Season Three are doing just that as they travel the Dalton Highway in Alaska for Carlile Transportation. Show veterans Hugh “The Polar Bear” Rowland and Alex Debogorski are joined by several newcomers, including the show’s first female driver, resident hottie and tomboy Lisa Kelly.
