Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive is an American reality television program that aired on the E! network in 2005. On E! Australia it aired as Rich Kids: Cattle Drive.
The participants meet their tough-as-nails trail bosses and are given their first lesson in riding horses: don’t wear designer jeans!
Shanna Ferrigno (daughter of “The Hulk” Lou Ferrigno) and George Foreman (III) lead their “rich kid” cattle crews at the start of a two and a half week adventure in “roughing it.”
While the crews complain about the hardscrabble lifestyle, their trail bosses rope them into a 24-hour rotating watch to monitor two pregnant cows who could go into labor.
The cast gets their Burberrys in a bunch when the trail bosses take their (Gasp!) cell phones. Which three members of the privileged posse escape to town in protest?
Brittny and Haley are cattle captains and their laziness and spoiled behaviour rubs off on most of the group.
The ever-increasing divide between the trail bosses and the kids comes to a head as the trail bosses abandon the teams to do the cattle drive on their own.
Reeling from continual losses, Fabian draws the Red Crew into hostilities against the trail bosses and any defector who sides with them.
With only two days left on the cattle drive and Steamboat Springs just miles away, disaster strikes when the chuck wagon breaks down.
