The action taking place by the "cowboys" is fine, but every time Trace Adkins appears, it's like the big black cloud of doom coming over the TV. He just sucks any fun right out of the show. And, as in seasons past, his assessment of the participants seems way off base. In S4 E1 he sent a contestant home whose horse stepped into a hole, fell causing him to fall off. Meanwhile, another contestant singled out as being a real problem by several contestants and was kept on the show.
The show is advertised as being about who has the skills to be the best cowboy, but spends too much time on personalities, squabbles between contestants and Adkins personal opinions.
