"Ice Road Truckers" is sliding back onto the small screen for the first time since 2017, as the show will return for a new season on History Channel after eight years off the air.
Season 12 will premiere on the cable network on Oct. 1. Series vets Todd Dewey and Lisa Kelly will join a group of ice-trucking rookies as they navigate over North Canada's frozen lakes and icy roads to deliver supplies and necessities to far-out communities cut off from civilization. "With a winter window shorter than ever and no time to waste, these drivers risk everything to haul in a lifeline of goods while chasing big paydays before the opportunity melts away under their chained tires," reads the logline.

"Ice Road Truckers," from "Deadliest Catch" executive producer Thom Beers, first launched on History in 2007 and ran for 11 seasons through 2017. The series was never officially canceled, but after Season 11, cast members said in interviews they were never asked to return back to the show.
"Ice Road Truckers" is produced for the History Channel and Corus Entertainment by Original Productions and Eagle Vision. Jeff Hasler, Brian Lovett, Meredith Prunkard and Patrick Costello are executive producers for Original Productions; Kyle Irving, Lisa Meeches and Rebecca Gibson are EPs for Eagle Vision. Rachel Nelson and Lynne Carter are the executives in charge at Corus, and Eli Lehrer, Mary E. Donahue and Alex Hicks serve as executive producers for History.
"The timing couldn't be better to bring back a beloved series that once resonated with our viewers for over a decade," said Eli Lehrer, executive vice president and head of programming for the History Channel.
