Alicia I love this movie so much
Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Chatverock Takes itself way too seriously
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Neil My and my missus love watching this show, its great to unwind to. The men and women are such strong characters. The beef between father & son is such a familiar one in every society but for some reason in this stripped back environment it is pinnacle. In a world of ugly political correctness its great to see a real society depicted on TV & I am sure that is part of the draw for these kind of shows, they depict a life less complicated in many ways even thought it is much harder in work rate. I hope the show keeps go for a while yet as the town is threatened by the shadow of civilisation things are only going to hot up! I've got an idea on how to make things easier in town for the Dads. Bob is adopted by Sam & Joey is adopted by Charlie. What do you think?
Harriet Deltubbo What can I say? A fun concept. The obstacles are many for the stars of this survival show. You see the best in human nature shine through. I suggest you enjoy the first five or so episodes for what they are and let your mind play around with the opportunities there can be to make something interesting. An austere, gripping series about surviving against the odds. The real centerpiece of the film is its stars. This is a story about a place most people might not be able to conceive as all the featured stars struggle. It's not quite worth 8 out of 10, so I give it a solid 7 out of 10 and urge you to check it out if you can find it.
brittonwa This is not "Survivorman" or "Man vs Wild". This show depicts the all too real life of everyday survival in Tanana, Alaska. As so many of us take for granted the luxuries we are accustom to such as local supermarkets with a supply of never ending food, we see the struggle of the occupants of Tanana to maintain enough food to last the winter by gathering and hunting it themselves. And the obstacles are many. Bears, wolves, and bad weather are just the tip of the iceberg. Broken equipment, changes in animal migration, and even unseasonably warm weather can play havoc on any attempts to gather enough food. Many have lost their lives due to the unpredictable mood of the Alaskan environment as they attempt to provide for their families.Remarkably, you see the best in human nature. The residents truly care for the well being of their neighbors and consider all as extended families. With no hesitation, they band together to overcome any crisis, this is evident when a local is killed and the entire town rallies together to mourn his passing in a traditional funeral and feast.Survival shows have become very popular lately, but nothing can compare to "Yukan Men" if you want to see people survive as a way of every day life. And yet, they would not want to live their lives any other way.
platozplaydough I always watch and get taken up with the personalities as with the difficult lives they lead. To the father of the girls who shot the caribou. You had the perfect opportunity to be their hero and a hero to all of us women who watch the show and tried at some point in our lives to please our father and it was never good enough. That was disappointing and I actually cried for your girls. Girls you forgive your father. Men are stupid. They can't help it. In his heart he is proud of you but it was his job to provide meat so he couldn't see passed his own pride. We all know that and he knows it too. We are human and make mistakes. I'm sure he is a good man. To the son who shot the grizzly!! Wow!! Good job! What an interesting young man you are and so much character. I love the way you show who you are and the protectiveness you feel for your father. I love the show. I pray for all of you. As a woman I would like to see more of what life is like for the women there too.To you cry baby liberals who want to whine about killing ...It's called survival and real life. You who live your lives in a cell phone and a fast food restaurant .. of course you cannot identify with anything real because you are not real.
