As said earlier most of these shows are fake. It can be good entertainment if you don’t mind that but it is too fake for me. I would rather watch YouTube channels of homesteaders in BC and Alaska.
There was someone on this forum whose car was used on pawn stars and he exposed them for how fake they are. I also used to live in Pikeville Kentucky where they supposedly filmed a series on the survivors of the Hatfield and McCoy series. It’s a small town of about 5k people and I personally knew descendents of the families. No one knew anything about the show at all until a commercial came on the tv for it.
