Thunderbird Entertainment Group Inc (TSX-V:TBRD, OTCQX:THBRF)’s unscripted division Great Pacific Media is revving up for the release of the latest season of Highway Thru Hell, which is set to premiere on Bell Media’s Discovery on September 26 at 9pm ET/6pm PT, moving up from its previous 10pm ET timeslot.
According to the company, Season 11 of Highway Thru Hell tests roads and communities like never before as the unprecedented weather disaster of the 2021 British Columbia floods hits home for heavy recovery operators, highway crews, and first responders.
Series producer Nicole Tomlinson said over the last decade Highway Thru Hell had given audiences a striking picture of the challenges and danger inherent in keeping people and goods on the move, but this season was truly like no other.

“This year we witness our highway heroes navigating waves of destruction, rapid response and long-term recovery,” Tomlinson said.

Viewers can catch up on seasons 1 to 10 of Highway Thru Hell on ctv.ca and the CTV App, with new episodes from season 11 rolling out weekly beginning September 26, Thunderbird said.
