Sadly Over-hyped

Absolutely the worst movie.

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

See Part Two in Season 1 so you realize it's fake. Problem with an outboard motor that does not want to start .... the problem depends on the rocks .... rocks in what? The engine? At the propeller (one starts without having a gear in). This is so unusually bad for creating drama. That's not how it works. Sad. That was the last I saw of this series. Fake !!It gets better, much better with what's fake.S1E1. A bear has broken into a cabin. Why? To look for food? If this had reflected the reality, of course, the one who had the cottage did NOT leave food behind. So how does the bear break in? He hits the door of the cottage. How can a bear know what a door is? You see how fake this is. Well he breaks a door (how? banging? what?..its a solid door). If you do not think this is so stupid, then listen to this: then the bear apparently comes in three times, three times. Every time he does so he destroys a glass window (way????) Hahaha. My sweet lord Who the hell believe in this? How the hell corked, does this production company believe we are?

Great Photography, real people. A really fine portrayal of life in the wilderness of Alaska. It takes real guts to leave everything behind and face the Alaska winter while living 100's of miles from Doctors, Phone lines, Electricity, or even a gallon of milk. Everyone should watch a few episodes of this show to get in touch with the reality of life without modern conveniences. I for one hope this show continues for many years.

This show is so interesting and it's super super fun! It really makes you understand how these families work, and live and what these guys have to do to really survive! There is moments in the show where you get tingling up your spine, because you realize what kind of moment they are in! I understand each episode is 1hour long, but I really wish there was longer segments of each family!The families go through so much, and you really see what their going through!All in All. AMAZING show. I want more please :)I love the characters, and to see these older men doing what they are doing is 10/10

This could be such an entertaining show to watch. The scenery is beautiful and the people and the lives they lead are so interesting. It's just soooo hard to watch with the job of editing done.Here's an example of what I mean. Say there are three families they are following. They start with family 1 and show them open up the door and walk outside. They then put up "100 miles west of family 1" and then show family 2 doing something for maybe 2 minutes. They then put up "130 miles south of Family 2" and show family 3 do something for 5 minutes. And on, and on, just jumping around. SO ANNOYING.This seems to be a common way of editing these nature shows. I'm guessing the first show of this kind won an award and now some mindless editors, like for this show, feel it's the creative and cool thing to do. Well, it's not.I don't care about your dumb creative editing, just show these people's lives and stop bouncing around every five minutes. Arrghh, it's so frustrating how they just ruin what could be a great show.
