After reading a lot of the reviews I feel like I need to chime in. I have mixed feelings about this show. The Hailstones are the most annoying to me. These people for one need a good scrubbing and it just seems like they just want a free ride living off the wildlife. I don't think they have the right to kill and eat those animals. Those animals are living in their domain and the humans are encroaching. I think Jesse is a really nice guy but I hate to see him keep breeding those dogs. That's cruel and not necessary. It looks like he takes very good care of them but I wish he would stop breeding them. Those dogs can't be bred just to make him feel good about winning a race. Alaska looks like a beautiful place and I love seeing the animals but I hate knowing that those people are killing them. It's just like the people that kill the polar bears that is beyond screwed up. It shouldn't be allowed. Shame on them for eating every damn thing that walks.
