There was a large audience eagerly anticipating and waiting for the return of the show. The sixth season began to air Tuesday evenings on the Destination America channel. In December 2015, Michael and Angie met with Destination America and agreed to film the show's sixth season. They started airing only reruns of the show in October of 2014. They picked up the show for their network but did not film any new content.

The news was devastating to the couple, but Michael soon found hope in another Reelz Channel network. After the fire, the truTV network announced on Twitter that they would not renew a contract with Michael and Angie for any more seasons of the reality television show.

Michael claimed that a pinched extension cord for a keg refrigerator had overheated and sparked at a media event, which then caught a nearby box on fire, and that was the initial cause of the fire.

There had been a massive fire on the grounds of Michael's property, and it destroyed all of the Full Throttle Saloon and the surrounding buildings and structures in September 2015. It was announced that they would only air the classic episodes from the previous seasons. In December 2013, the series aired its fifth season on TruTV.
