Mountain Men: Season 1

We need real back into reality...
Seriously? Can we stop the drama and get back to discovering what people who live in the mountains do to survive? Let's see the gardens, the process of putting food up, how to skin a beaver, what they do in the evenings, how do they relate to their families...not silly (looking much like contrived) situations. For example...with a cameraman present, it was doubtful Marty would freeze or dehydrate to death. Just way too hokey as it stands. Maybe season 2 will be better.

Major dramatic moments: Lost dog, late husband, kid who doesn't put tools away.
I was altogether disappointed with this series. Only about 20% of the camera-time is spent on interesting happenings, the other 80% is spent on filler air-time accompanied by desperate yet futile effort to make life seems dangerous, interesting, and dramatic. Yet when you've finished an episode, and reflect back on it - you swiftly realize that during that 30 minutes episode.... nothing actually happened.

Get Real!
This series is petty, juvenile and overly dramatic. Sure it is a tough life but let's be more realistic in the future

Ring of Fire

A Lifetime Network Biopic That Effectively Showcases The Sass And Strength Of June Carter
Considering that the June Carter biopic "Ring of Fire" was a Lifetime Original Movie, I didn't have particularly high expectations. The network is best known for its lurid "ripped from the headlines" recreations of notorious crimes or its standard "woman in peril" thrillers. It's always nice to see them strive for something a bit more noteworthy! Coming up with the right balance in a dramatized biography can be a tricky proposition. Someone's life is far too complex to be covered with any depth in a ninety minute presentation. Director Allison Anders and screenwriter Richard Friedenberg do a nice job in conveying the essence of June Carter with the material they've chosen to include in "Ring of Fire." Yes, the movie is episodic and skips enormous chunks of Carter's life. But what it does provide is a solid entertainment. The performances are good, the emotions heartfelt, and the soundtrack is peppered with lots of recognizable music. So while this isn't going to be the...

Ice Road Truckers: Season 6

Somewhat hilarious
First and foremost, I missed Lisa.She was a refreshing change to the show. I hope she returns soon. Maya on the otherhand I did not miss. Women truckers across the Country just want respect from other drivers. Her little Hot Spring scene seemed to be just as degrading to women as anything else in the entertainment industry that can't tell a story without having a sexual twist to it.The guys were so childish this season, I'm better than you are, hahaha. Please, I don't need to be reminded of how high school was. There is enough disrespect for others already in the world. If I was their wife or girlfriend I would be absolutely embarrassed by their actions. Todays youth need role models in work forces, not pansy ass whiners. If I was Porkchops wife, I would not want him to come home, money or not !!! Darrell, well, he just does it for Reno, HELLO !!! I thought they were doing it for people who need supplies for their livliehood, with a nice paycheck for caring and risking your life for...

Ice Road Truckers Instant Video
It is amazing and thankful that Amazon was able to wrangle the ability to present these. When someone is attempting to follow a presentation but gets denied the TV presentation (for whatever reason), they are now able to count on Amazon to prevent the loss of continuity of programming with Instant Video --- especially presentations on The Weather Channel, Discovery, and History. These are Great!!

I enjoy watching these
am disappointed that I can't watch Season 5 or 7, I had started to watch 5 and it change to where I had to pay to finish watching the season
