I'm not sure what other reviewers are taking this show as. It's not a documentary so stop trying to wrap your head around every little detail. There are some plot holes that could be filled in but I don't think every small nuance needs to be addressed. It's a TV show. It's fictional. Every movie or film has movie mistakes, deal with it. Many of these reviewers probably live in urban or suburban areas and couldn't figure out how to get things done without their iphones and credit cards. Think about the situation and you can probably fill the holes yourself, even if you don't see it on screen. Examples below.

Power. Generators. probably bartered or stolen. - ATVs. A welder, hand tools, and junk parts can make it work. I've seen many Frankenstein vehicles that were operational. How do you think Cuba kept cars from the 1950/1960s running so long. They probably modified junk ATVs. Speaking of welder, they must have had one to make the cage. - Tools/instruments. Stolen/bartered. - The language. Small pocket dialect. Look up PA Dutch for example. - Fuel. Moonshine is ethanol. Ethanol is moonshine. People do convert vehicles to run on alternative fuels...bio fuels, wood alcohol, etc. Not a stretch to use ethanol in this case. Or rob locals, siphon cars, etc. - Trucks. Face if folks, they're driving old beaters that aren't worth much. Probably didn't take much to acquire one.

In any case, you can fill the plot holes with your own conclusions. Think outside the box but don't think too much because you'll ruin your viewing experience.

The actors do a good job acting. The setting is believable. The lifestyle is intriguing. Power struggles are entertaining. Character development is fun.

Just sit back and enjoy the show.

score 8/10
