Scripted, show with set up scenes, and blatant mistakes I picked out in first season. But by now I guess we all know much "reality TV" now days is faked. If want real bush Alaska people,, watch mountain men. Marty fling into run trap lines where no man may have walked,,, that's reality

I like the message that they resonate of God and Family. I find wilderness living fascinating. Each family members personality is interesting and entertaining. Noah and Bam Bam are probably my two favorites, but, I think they are all wonderful. I do have to say after watching several episodes it doesn't really appear that the family actually lives in the woods. Their "homestead" looks more like a camp, than a homestead of twenty years. I'm just thinking that given their intelligence that home would be more refined than looking like a camp, albeit simple living.

I lived in Alaska from 1975 to 1998. What a fake show. They never would make if wasn't for idiots that don't know real Alaskan people from posers like them. And know their in Washington state still call them Bush people. Sad....
