Synopsis

In 1980, the U.S. government banned new human occupation in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska, a protected area, home to thousands of native animals and pristine terrain spanning roughly the size of South Carolina. Currently, only a handful of families spread across seven permitted cabins are allowed to remain in the refuge. Within less than 100 years, all remaining permits will reach expiration, and there will be no human presence left.

Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Muffel Buffel See Part Two in Season 1 so you realize it's fake. Problem with an outboard motor that does not want to start .... the problem depends on the rocks .... rocks in what? The engine? At the propeller (one starts without having a gear in). This is so unusually bad for creating drama. That's not how it works. Sad. That was the last I saw of this series. Fake !!It gets better, much better with what's fake.S1E1. A bear has broken into a cabin. Why? To look for food? If this had reflected the reality, of course, the one who had the cottage did NOT leave food behind. So how does the bear break in? He hits the door of the cottage. How can a bear know what a door is? You see how fake this is. Well he breaks a door (how? banging? what?..its a solid door). If you do not think this is so stupid, then listen to this: then the bear apparently comes in three times, three times. Every time he does so he destroys a glass window (way????) Hahaha. My sweet lord Who the hell believe in this? How the hell corked, does this production company believe we are?
scottm-79997 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?
cccody There is still HOPE for Reality TV Shows! A refreshing break from "Scripted Versions" of Reality TV. The Last Alaskans consist of wholesome, innocent, family friendly values. A Reality TV Show this is SAFE Family Entertainment. Our family enjoys all aspects that is covered in this program. The producers perform a wonderful job covering the beautiful land of Alaska and the families abilities to survive rugged nature. True Faith and Grit is the core of the raw gut strength to live this lifestyle! They are true survivors! Thank you to the families for the willingness to share their lives with us! Also, Great job to Animal Planet! I look forward to a New Season!
Hunter Mabee 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
