If fake drama's definition in Webster's isn't Sue, then I'll.....
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

I look at the "Sue" segment's as the comedy portion of the show.

I absolutely love the show, the only thing that could make it better is to have an episode with StripBuckHunter munchin' ole Sue's rug

Of all the shows about Alaska, this one is probably my favorite. Chip and his wife are the real deal and what you see them do on tv is how they live their life.
Sue can be a hoot sometime but she talks to much for my liking.
The guy that lives near Coldfoot is living the life, hunting and trapping during the winter and guiding hunters in the spring and fall.
The couple living on the Yukon, well, they are a different breed to be sure and how his wife puts up with his bs is beyond me.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

He sort of provides perspective - many of us could not exist in his world and I don't think that he could exist in ours. As to the show in general, I wish that they would provide more information about their firearms when they are featured.
Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

The show can be entertaining, (which IS the goal), but that's about it. The Family Guy is probably a more accurate reality show...  Anyone know why Chip Hailstone never handles a firearm?

Chip does handle firearms, he just doesn't do it on film. Go visit the Alaska Outdoor Directory and read some of his stories, he's a fascinating indivdual.

I like it a heck of a lot more than honey boo and some off that other reality crap they have on. Like most I think that Sue is a bit much. My favorite is the young guy. While he may not be what some consider totally off grid he does live in the bush making his living in the outdoors guiding trapping hunting. Im more interested in in watching their different lifestyles than worrying about just how off grid they are. My guess is anyone who is totally off grid probably ain't interested in sharing company with a tv production crew. I pickup what I can and laugh at the BS parts. Just TV.
Life can be rough on us dreamers.

Alaska is the darling for so many Reality TV Shows right now and many stink. Live Below o is the exception. Chip Hailstone and his crew live about a 2 hour Sno-go ride or 3.5 hours by boat east of Kotz. I have spent a lot of time out in Noorvik running Drug/Alcohol/Tobacco Free Softball tournaments over the years and they are good folks. Hell Noorvik is a great village with lots of game to be had.
I hope the show stays true to form and lives a long life!
