  1. Why Tanked was cancelled is a downright shame! It was so educational and featured hard-working masters of their trade. Wayde and Brett left the world a better place with their talents. I’m glad there are reruns!!!

  2. I love Tanked…I think Wade is sexy! I will marry him and would love to look after him, be a great wife to him, cook and look after him. I simply love Wayde.

  3. I loved watching Tanked. I am now watching reruns, but as most fans agree it is a shame the show was cancelled. A horrible situation…but I feel like we are getting punished (viewers) and the employees because of Heather’s behaviour…bring back new episodes of Tanked minus Heather. I am the first name on my petition…if anybody likes to sign please do…then I will send it to Animal Planet!

  4. TANKED reruns are back now !! ANIMAL PLANET is having an all-day all-night Marathon on Friday, April 9th, 2021. I am watching them now as I post this, Reruns Marathon FTW!
