Nordalaska - Überleben am Polarkreis

Beautifully shot. Real people. Love this show and just discovered it last night. No script like those weirdos the Brown family.

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.

By far the best 'reality' show I have ever viewed. I have visited Alaska half a dozen times and this series catches the spirit of the place. These are not actors, but real people who share their methods, inner thoughts, and lifestyle for the benefit of the viewer. Very highly recommended. Videography and music are first class. Four groups are featured: a single man in his 60's, a couple of around the same age, a couple of about 30, and a family of 5 with 3 daughters about 20. Be aware that these people hunt and fish in order to eat. As one says, they are not paying someone else to do their killing for them. Thus, a few scenes reflect that. Not gruesome at all, just a fact of life.

There are a lot of bad reality TV shows about wacky Alaskans out there, but this show is not one. I am really digging The Last Alaskans on Animal Planet right now. Not sure why it's on Animal Planet- the show is definitely about the people, not the animals, though it being Alaska, there are animals everywhere. It's about the 7-8 cabin-owners who are the last remaining inhabitants permitted in the Artic National Refuge, an area the size of South Carolina. They are quiet, hardy, salt-of-the-earth people who LIKE living in almost complete isolation. The distances are truly staggering- captions like "meanwhile, 360 miles to the north..." are common on-screen transitions between one family and the next.) It's kind of amazing that these very introverted folks even allowed camera crews to follow them around at all. I would love to see the behind-the-scenes on how this all got filmed. The cinematography is absolutely gorgeous, especially the panning areal shots (must be drones?) of the wilderness below. Watch this show if you can- I highly recommend!

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
