The Epitome of "Reality TV"
In order to find any merit in this series, one has to buy into the premise of a multi-millionaire clan living off the grid in a survival existence. Never mind that they are only a few miles from Homer, Alaska and all its modern conveniences. This comes in handy when major injuries due to being drunk and falling off a cliff, need hospitalization, a baby has to be delivered or a hernia has to be repaired.As with all "reality tv," every episode is the creation of the production team...written in Hollywood before they leave for Alaska. Script titles should read "Otto Goes to the Outhouse," "Atz Lee Has Another PTSD Attack," "Jane Pouts Again."
Central to this and other such shows, is the producers' belief that viewers are stupid. That they will buy into all the nonsense. I guess given the popularity, they are right.
