Synopsis
Dirty Jobs (2005), Season 7 is Discovery's reality series you can watch online on iFILM — ten episodes of Mike Rowe doing the work nobody else will touch.
This run sends him paving asphalt in Nebraska, distilling rum from molasses, scraping out a fish grinder on a Bering Sea boat and debarking cedar logs for a cabin. One episode grades America's crumbling infrastructure and salutes the crews who keep it standing; another drops him into a Jelly Belly lab to invent a jelly bean that tastes like his own filthy boots. The finale heads home, with Mike revisiting his grimiest gigs alongside his parents.
Season 7 sticks to the formula: no glossy narration, just Rowe, dry asides and the laborers TV usually edits out. Stream Dirty Jobs Season 7 online on iFILM.
