    Who owns the property?

    Am curious to know who owns all the properties comprising the places these folks have set up as home? Do they own it?

    The Boonies

    If they are just eating what the kill and find, how come they are not skinny? In fact, one of them is rather hefty. If all I had to eat was veggies and meat, I'd be a size two. So, I'm not buying it. A lot of it is just to far fetch. It doesn't look like anyone is hungry, have problems feeding themselves and their animals. I assume none of them go to the hospital. The only one I can believe is the guy with the boat. I get that. Anyway, it is fun to watch but just not believable.

    Worthwhile entertainment.

    Disregard all the armchair survival experts who are slamming this program. It never claimed to be an educational program on how to survive in the wilderness.

    Like almost every other program on TV, it's entertainment, and it does a dang good job of it. Watch it, if this is your kind of thing, you'll enjoy getting to know the interesting characters who you'd expect to be living in The Boonies.

    Awesome show

    Having just discovered this program, I am truly enjoying a window into those featured persons lives! I get the impression that they are truly down to earth and are genuinely good people! I'd love to hang out with any one of them! Especially, because they don't kill anything as a trophy, they consume their hunted animals. Can only respect that! It's an awesome show! I only dream of living off the land!

    Why I'm here

    I've had a real calling to move to the mountains and I have. I don't live totally off the grid as you can see I have the internet but much like Doc and Jeanny My wife and I live in a Forest on our own piece of Heaven. We have chickens and goats right now & looking to get some pigs "maybe". The altitude we live at is around 7500'. I get some of my best ideas from this show and Live Free or Die. Living away from society has not been a burden at all. Please bring this show back it is Great!
