Beden May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 The acting is Oscar worthy. I don't know if I'd go that far but to be a successful grifter, you, admittedly, are helped if you have some acting chops and can keep a straight face while spewing your BS. The show (and the Brown's act) wouldn't play if they couldn't sell the script. 1 Link to comment
brgjoe May 22, 2015 Share May 22, 2015 I would wager that if they do cover the court stuff (and I guess from rumors around the 'net is that they will), they will spin it to say something like, "The evil gubmit is taking away our land! We won't stand for that! We will fight them tooth (what few we still have) and nail!" Of course I will still be watching this thing, even though it's full o' BS. 2 Link to comment

Beden May 30, 2015 Share May 30, 2015 (edited) I have a real question for anyone who may have the real answer; have the Browns actually ever lived in the bush other than for a week or two of camping? I mean through choice and wanting to be on their own, away from the confines of society and not just hiding from the sheriff or whomever. Seriously, anyone know? Their efforts seem pretty lameass for people who claim that this is the life they love. If I were a cynical person I'd maybe suspect that scoring a TV show about this quasi renegade family living off the land is just another and fairly lucrative scam.

Beden May 30, 2015 Share May 30, 2015 (edited) Okay, a couple of things struck me about the new ep; first that several family members have upgraded their outer wear with what looks to be fairly high end fur or fur lined coats. Billy in what appeared to be a new shearling (though I don't have HD so it might, possibly have been lined with faux fur, though that seems unlikely) and one of the daughters had a coat I wouldn't mind wearing myself, if I wore fur. Then Ami's surgery--I had multiple extractions when I was about 12 in preparation for braces--I had big teeth and a small jaw, they simply didn't fit in my mouth. It wasn't a good look. I know a bit about how this is or was done as I also had 12 teeth out, though 1/2 were baby teeth. It wasn't done in one shot, but in two separate operations.Yes, as an out patient and you do feel like crap for a while. I found it odd that she simply walked out of the office after 12 seriously abscessed teeth were removed in one long shot. I would think that with something like that, with a patient who was in severe discomfort and who'd end up in a hotel or some such when she was released, that they would have arrangements for her to stay under some kind of observation at least overnight. This is an older woman who'd been in pain and suffering for a while. No, I'm no medical person but it seemed odd that she just hobbled out supported by family. Oh yeah, and at the end of the show when Mom and Billy walk into the house to the surprise of the new stove, commenting on how warm it was in the cabin--you could see Billy's breath as he spoke. I'm willing to believe that the boys (or their paid minions) finished the job siding that whatever it was. And shall we call bullshit on not having the $ to pay for teeth and a wood stove? The Browns do, after all, get reasonably well paid to struggle in the bush with a camera crew following them and a production team just a scootch down river. I'm sure you clever other watchers saw lots more... Edited May 30, 2015 by Beden 5 Link to comment
NEGirl May 30, 2015 Share May 30, 2015 (edited) Beden - Sorry about the pain you had to go through with the 12 teeeth being pulled. Years ago I had four impacted wisdom teeth pulled and felt like crap for a week and needed pain meds the whole time. I missed a whole week of work and spent half the time with ice bags on both sides of my face. So, yeah, I doubt Ami just got back on the boat and went home. One of my best friends had ONE tooth that became infected. They could not do any dental work until the infection was cleared up with antibiotics. I doubt Ami had 12 severely infected teeth pulled without first taking antibiotics. They said she had last taken them 4 months previously for 6 infected teeth. They can't pull an infected tooth because the infections can spread into the bone/sinus and or blood. It looked like they all stayed in a motel from what I could tell, but I'm not sure. I guess they used the illegally obtained state money to pay for the dental work. Maybe the whole family can use that disco money for dental work. The oldest girl's teeth are a mess. She is already missing teeth and she's only 20. Last year I took an Alaskan Cruise(after saving for 3 years) and the cruise ship stopped in Juneau. It is aything but a "big city". We were told the year round population was appx. 1,800 people. The town went about 4 blocks north, south and west. Plane and boat are the only way into the town. Yep, it sure looked like they went a step up with the coats. They looked like suade/fur coats to me. God, those boys are such a bunch of tip shits. They could not build a playhouse never mind their "new home". I thought the same thing about the tank tops in the snow. Edited May 30, 2015 by NEGirl 1 Link to comment
sigmaforce86 May 30, 2015 Share May 30, 2015 (edited) I'm sure you clever other watchers saw lots more...The fake shopping trip for the girls where they were able to just open random stuff like the breath strips and nobody stops them or asks if they're buying that. They lived in town after the boat sank but made the Juno trip look like these kids had never seen a displosible razor before.Shouldn't Ami have been a little more swollen? She's got a pretty thin face and when she got back to the cabin she didn't look any different. I don't doubt she had something done but I think they played with the timeline And how did the boys know to pick them up when they got back? I don't remember seeing a radio unless it's the one on the boat but they sure didn't hang around the boat all day waiting for Billy to call. You know if they set up some system the narrator would be all over it "Matt goes to the boat at 3pm every day hoping Billy will call and say they're coming home.. Communication in the bush take planning" Edited May 30, 2015 by sigmaforce86 4 Link to comment
CN42 May 30, 2015 Share May 30, 2015 (edited) I have a hard time feeling sympathy for a grown-ass woman acting like a big baby at the dentist's office, especially when one of her observing daughters will most likely need the same surgery in a few years. Ah-mee gave birth to 7 children and seemed to have survived that. Wonder if the whole family was in the delivery room too? I missed the beginning of the episode - what's with the cardboard insulation? I'm sure that will prove very helpful when it's -40 degrees. Edited May 30, 2015 by CN42 2 Link to comment
clod May 30, 2015 Share May 30, 2015 only two bedrooms? the "wolf pack" has nine humans in it. I think there could have been four small bedrooms upstairs instead of two bedrooms and some open space. maybe the upstairs open space is for the cameras and lights and stuff. so,.......the plan is for 25+ and 30+ year-old sons to live their lives by sleeping on the floor. because family. ???? I guess it's relative. the first season, their big plan was for all nine to live in a one-room cabin. right. ------------------------- were they sitting around in the rain again? talking about stuff. but wait, isn't that a house over there? maybe have big family discussions inside, when it's raining outside. ------------------------- oldest son, stop messing around with goofy shacks. build a cabin. 1 Link to comment
Beden May 30, 2015 Share May 30, 2015 Dumb and dumber. Yep, sitting in the rain because...well, because that's what bush people do. And yeah, the norkie t's? When it's cold enough to see your breath? Okay,l maybe they'd worked up a sweat doing whatever they were doing but c'mon--have they never heard of hypothermia? Pneumonia? Also loved that scene with the girls acting like shampoo in 'really modern' bottles was an artifact from mars. Shall we assume that the store keeper handed a bill for damaged merchandise to the producers? Also loved the short preview cut of Ami saying that she'd been treated like a common criminal or some such. Well, if the shoe fits...can't wait till we get to the court room scenes. 2 Link to comment

This grown-ass woman has a deep, deep fear of dentist that came from a slightly abusive pediatric dentist with no bedside manner who, in hindsight never should have been working with kids. I need one tooth pulled and have been putting it off for months; if I thought I needed six done it would take Valium just to get me in the waiting room. We can't help our phobias even if they look silly to others. Not blaming you for what you said though, "reality" shows like this don't help when they play it up for drama to make things look oh so dire or make the person look crazy instead of a little nervous. That gets some viewers actually believing every single thing they see........my Mother being one, she thinks the Brown family are modern day pioneers; she also thinks all the stings on Mystery Diners are real and that some of the employees get arrested after the show ( she's a little older so I just play along) 2 Link to comment
NEGirl May 30, 2015 Share May 30, 2015 (edited) My sister also has a fear of dentists and needs valium before each visit, and, our dentist was a nice guy. That sure did look like carboard on the walls - nothing like a insulated home to keep you warm in the winter. Oh look- a shampoo bottle! They all need to shampoo their mops of hair and take a bath. I guess they do that in the near by streams when it's 10 below. I also can't wait for the court scenes. Edited May 30, 2015 by NEGirl 2 Link to comment

No doubt, but is it just me or are reality shows starting to more and more obviously show their cracks? The scripting, the fake plotlines, the holes in the various stories big enough to drive trucks through, the level of BS even my dog could smell a mile away? Perhaps the reality phenomenon is approaching the end of it's heyday? I know these things became so ubiquitous because they're relatively easy and cheap to produce, but between the supersaturation and the total stupidity of any number of them, the scandals (the Duggars, Honey Boo Boo, the upcoming fraud trial on this show and so on), might this cash cow be coming towards the end of it's reign?

Beden June 6, 2015 Share June 6, 2015 Saw the show last night. Oh my. So Matt used 7,000 old tires to build that hut, grade and put in the floor, side the walls with wood (the Brown house also now has inside siding, I noticed, though just studs upstairs and the rooms are wide open without interior walls) and did it all in three days, two weeks or whatever? Uh-huh. So the production company called in the local building crew again to do some projects, though we're still waiting for a front door and tiles or something on the roof to replace that tarp with winter coming in 10 minutes. Also loved how the boys were looking at an old portable phone like it came from ET and could use it to call home, if home had phones. Crikey. 2 Link to comment

Lemur June 15, 2015 Share June 15, 2015 I hadn't heard about a fraud trial. Could someone fill me in please & thank you? Alaskan residents are eligible for a dividend from the Alaska Permanent Fund, which is a fund established in 1976 to pool 25% of the mineral lease rights, royalties, rents, proceeds, and bonuses. The income can only be used for income-producing investments. It is paid on June 30th of each year and calculated using a set formula. There are certain residency requirements to earn a dividend payment. If you are absent for more than 180 days for a reason other than being in school, being active duty military, receiving continuous medical treatment out of state, caring for a sick parent, spouse, etc. out of state, serving in Congress or on a Congressional staff, etc. etc. etc. If you are absent for more than those 180 days for a reason not listed in their state law and make a claim anyway, it's fraud. The State is alleging that six of the Browns has been putting in claims from 2010 to 2013 while not meeting residency requirements. How fake is it?

Beden June 20, 2015 Share June 20, 2015 Okay, I realize how ridiculous what I'm about to say is but during that kerfuffle regarding Ami's family calling the cops on her; we all know that they're really living in the local tourist lodge and only boat over to the set for filming but couldn't she just have made the calls to the fam back in the lower 48 herself when she got back to her room? Break the 4th wall? shocking, I know but did they really have to build an ep on this BS? And would that nice lady who allowed the boys to knock down her shed (which looked like a semi-furnished apartment to me) and play finders keepers--she really let they take what looked like a perfectly good oven instead of selling it? Even if it needed work, it would likely have been worth some $ to someone. And the boys found enough in perfect condition tongue and groove lumber to finish the upstairs walls and had it installed in 30 seconds. Uh-huh--and it looked like they put it over the cardboard insulation. uh-huh again. I may be a cynic, but I suspect that the local construction crew knows better than that. This thing just keeps getting dumber and dumber. 1 Link to comment
