You see the mistake, you address it with the one who did it privately, you see how to fix as inexpensively and quickly as possible, if the one that made the mistake, capable of fixing, you have them fix it"

      J oker Gold rush is produced by a company called Raw TV. And they make what’s called STS (scripted television shows). And as to my understanding all the main characters like Parker, Tony and now Ness have already negotiated and signed contracts for this and the next season. And going by the popularity of the show I’m guessing those contracts has a lot of zeros in it. So if a lot of what we see on the show is staged and scripted would not surprise me at all since the production company is the ones calling the shots.
