Surpassing a hundred episodes for a television series is considered quite a feat, but those that exceed 200 episodes are even more rare. With the March 4th airing, Highway Thru Hell, joins the ranks of mega-hit factual and reality series like Ghost Hunters, Myth Busters and Keeping up with the Kardashians that have exceeded the 200-episode threshold.

Highway Thru Hell originally debuted in 2012 and instantly became an instant hit with viewers with unbelievable real-life stories of the recovery operators and highway crews who fight to keep the highways open in one of the most treacherous routes in North America through B.C.’s mountains. The heavy rescue teams featured in the series charge straight into the storm, and over the years they’ve performed near-impossible vehicle rescues day and night on steep cliffs, mountain tops, and washed out and collapsing sections of highways to the awe of audiences everywhere.

Episode 200 of Highway Thru Hell offers a rare insider perspective on "Snow Protocol" as heavy rescue teams and highway crews battle one of the most extreme storms of the year to keep the Coquihalla Highway open. This milestone episode captures the high-stakes decisions and heroic efforts that keep drivers safe as the teams face whiteout conditions and relentless snowfall while undertaking near-impossible recovery operations.

“Highway Thru Hell’s success in Canada, the U.S., and globally, is due to the heavy rescue companies and highway crews that permit our talented production team to document the life-saving work that they do every day,” said GPM CEO, David Way. “We need to thank the entire dedicated cast of Highway Thru Hell, our steadfast partners at Bell Media and the legions of fans in Canada and around the world for getting us to this moment. With another season already in production, this journey is set to continue.”

“Wow, 200 episodes is an incredible accomplishment,” said Jamie Davis, series star and founder of Jamie Davis Towing Company, who has appeared in all 13 seasons. “I want to thank each and every one of our dedicated fans for helping us reach this incredible milestone. We love sharing our stories with you, and there’s so much more to come. Highway Thru Hell is one road we hope never ends.”

Season 14 of Highway Thu Hell is now in production at GPM in partnership with Bell Media. Banijay Rights distributes the series internationally. It’s currently available on The Weather Channel in the U.S. and in more than 180 territories across the globe, with a dedicated Highway Thru Hell FAST channel available in the U.K. and Australia.
