Last night I watched the series premier of "COAL" on Spike TV. The show is set in McDowell County, WV and follows the lives of coal miners as they work on a start up mine that is trying to turn a profit. As a native West Virginian, I am proud of the work that Spike has done on this series, it portrays actual miners and the dangers they face every day. Being from WV, I would say that nearly every native West Virginian knows of someone whether it is family or not that is employed with some aspect of mining. This show brings a new appreciation for the risks that the miners take every day to keep our lights on. If you have the opportunity, I would suggest that you check this show out.
Below is a link to a preview of the season, I hope that you take the time to check it out.
