Vida Remota

I just recently found this show. Absolutely love it such a refreshing way to look at TV. No blood guts or violence wonderful refreshing great show

If you like reality shows, you'll love this. It's natural, the Raney family are very likeable. The show is well made and full of real life drama. My wife and I love these sorts of shows, and binge watched it over a few days. Great job!

I truly like The Raneys...and having lived in Alaska, I get them...plus their off-grid philosophy. However...the drama as a part of every episode is silly. From the "I'm not sure if this homestead can be saved..." to "oh Dad...that tree almost fell on you, I was so scared!" Please...contrived...so contrived.

Some of their "off-grid" folks are frustrating to me. They call on the Raneys to help...then either resist the help or whine about the changes taking place. Such babies!!

Overall, I enjoy the show...Matt is my fav...such a kind-hearted man. Misty is lovely and such a garden knowledgeable gal. Dad is dad...big ego, but sense of humor and a love for what he does.

On the recent episode.from S11 E3 they got one thing terribly wrong for that young family which was the door to a storm shelter should NEVER open outwards because if debris fall against the door they would be trapped inside.

The door should always open inward so you can at least have a chance to clear any blockage.

I was not all that surprised that Mr. Raney got that small detail wrong but happily with a skilled handyman that fix can be made and heck even improve on the entrance all together so the family can gain entry faster if the time arrives to need the shelter.

Great job otherwise and will always be a loyal fan.

But... Dad is a legend in his own mind.

I have no doubt he knows what he's talking about. He can come up with some pretty ingenious solutions to difficult problems. Misty and Mat both learned a great deal from him and expanded on that, very much to the good.

I've seen some of the shows here and there, and recently decided to start watching them in order on Discovery +. I'm on the third one (because the second show of season 1 isn't available for streaming) and the homeowners in this one are utter morons.

First of all, they call the Raneys to their home to help them not just survive, but thrive. They refuse every single bit of advice the Raneys give them, 100%. The husband is also a complete narcissist who wouldn't take advice from a woman (Misty) if his life depended on it. He actually said to her, "I'm the one who lives here so I know what it's really like." Really? Is that why the Raneys are there? Because YOU know better than them?

I hope the homesteaders become less moronic as time goes on. The couple in the third show of the first season rely more on YouTube videos than they do three people who have homesteaded their entire lives and the complete lack of intelligence when it comes to animals and living in the country have me ready to scream.
