Well, that was a fantastic show. I just got done finishing seasons 2,3,4,5, and I am hungry for more. It is a great show! Right now I can only wish for season 6 to be available for purchase for Canadian viewers. Each season was better than the last. And had me excited for the next episode! This show along with the people featured within the show reminded me of a time when my own community didn't have a road to it. A time when families within my community had to hunt, and fish for their food rather than buying it at a store. The nearest town was hundreds of miles away. Just about everyone in the show lives that very lifestyle to this day and for that I love it even more.

Enjoyed. Too bad they took it off air and now History wants us to pay for old shows. Really. Shame..shame..network.

Love this show and now I have to pay twice to watch the new seasons which means I pay for the network and for the individual episodes. I'm on disability so for me this series is over. I love the show and hate corporate greed.
