Life Below Zero

Am I the only one who can't stand listening to Andy being so impatient with his wife? My goodness... she puts up with a lot from him. He talks about life in the suburbs as though it's beneath him and that "one can't truly know themselves until they live out in the bush". My guess... Andy isn't very good with other people and he cannot function in society. Anyway, the rest of the show is pretty good, looks realistic and it's really about a lifestyle choice. Living in the city versus out in the bush isn't about one being better than the other, it's about what each of us wants out of life. I suspect a couple of the other people on this show are living so far from society is that like Andy, they find that type of life too stressful as well.

Im so tired of Sue pretending how dangerous her living is, and how self sufficient she is. She lives on a treeless prairie. A wolverine is not a predator to humans. Lone wolves do not attack humans. She has 90 percent of her food delivered. 100 percent of her heat and electricity are deliered by fuel planes. I live in suburbia. I chop wood for use in a woodburner, and have a large garden as well as hunt deer. Im more self sufficient than her. Lol. She doesnt even walk anywhere..even to hunt. She rides her ATV everywhere. Where i come from, ATVs are not permitted to hunt, and the geography is mountainous and heavily wooded. She rides up and shoots a caribou and paintsca door, and repeats what a hard life it is. Hilarious.

I am not a hunter and live in suburbia like most of us. This show allows me a glimpse into the lives of people that have chosen a different life and I enjoy this a lot. I am disappointed by some of the other reviews that (mostly) incorrectly portray information as factual this more opinion based. The use of profanity, I think, is understandable when failure of equipment or to complete a task has potentially catastrophic side-effects. It's very different for us if the vacuum cleaner stops working. Much more of an inconvenience - no real harm done.

If you enjoy looking at wonderful arctic/sub-arctic scenery, are open to the choices and transitions of others and can put up with the repetitive editing style, then this is a show you should thoroughly enjoy.

Bassich is a horrible person, mean, ugly and rude to the women. No one should be allowed to profit from being so rude. No excuse for it!

I always fast forward past the always-arrogant Sue as she climbs on the roof and says she's food for the grizzlies. What a bunch of made up drama. The others are very enjoyable....especially Agnes and her husband and kids.
