Chatting in a behind-the-shows video about the series shared on the official Instagram account, he explained: "There’s a grittiness to it, an authenticity to it. The struggles are all real. Most people who went west had no idea, they were horribly unprepared facing a host of new diseases they’ve never been exposed to, animals they’ve never been exposed to."

Previously chatting to Taste of Country about his considerable efforts to train for the role, Tim explained: "I'm sort of a gym rat. I have to be in the gym every morning. The toughest part is being up at three in the morning every morning in order to make your call times. That's probably the hardest part of it, is getting up at three, getting your workouts in. Because there's been a couple of days that I didn't do that, and the energy is not the same on set."
