    Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

    I like this series but some of the information about living in Alaska is missing. I visit Alaska frequently, with a son and two grandchildren there, plus I have worked for two Alaskan Native-owned companies and have been in some remote sites and villages where tourists do not visit. Even though these featured families at permitted sites have a subsistence lifestyle (as do many remote villagers) for food and even lodging, they need some income for all their personal clothing gear, firearms, ammunition, traps, canoes, boats, snow machines, dog sleds, store-bought camp essentials (pots, containers, spices, construction supplies, rope, and so forth). I do not think that selling furs from a trap line and the annual Alaska Fund payout are enough to cover all these expenses, not to mention the health care costs when someone is hurt or sick and has to go to the hospital in Fairbanks or the aircraft visit resupply expense. I do not think they are allowed to pan for gold with these permits, so how do they cover their expenses beyond the subsistence food and lodging?

    I love this show. The scenery is breathtaking, the storyline fascinating, but the music is depressing. This sounds like a funeral or a death march. To me, this is a MAJOR distraction on this show. I do hope they will change it. Lighten up. You are taking a fantastic show and making it suck. I watch everything from Alaska and like them all but The Last Alaskans is just about the best storyline, scenery and cinematography. I like all the families involved and there is a true lack of "written in" drama.Some of the folks featured in some of the below zero type shows have become too full of themselves and I can no longer enjoy hearing her, I mean them. Please don't ruin this one.

    This show is so interesting and it's super super fun! It really makes you understand how these families work, and live and what these guys have to do to really survive! There is moments in the show where you get tingling up your spine, because you realize what kind of moment they are in! I understand each episode is 1hour long, but I really wish there was longer segments of each family!The families go through so much, and you really see what their going through!All in All. AMAZING show. I want more please :)I love the characters, and to see these older men doing what they are doing is 10/10

    By far the best 'reality' show I have ever viewed. I have visited Alaska half a dozen times and this series catches the spirit of the place. These are not actors, but real people who share their methods, inner thoughts, and lifestyle for the benefit of the viewer. Very highly recommended. Videography and music are first class. Four groups are featured: a single man in his 60's, a couple of around the same age, a couple of about 30, and a family of 5 with 3 daughters about 20. Be aware that these people hunt and fish in order to eat. As one says, they are not paying someone else to do their killing for them. Thus, a few scenes reflect that. Not gruesome at all, just a fact of life.
