Alaskan Bush People
TV Show • 2014 • Reality
ReportSynopsis
Deep in the Alaskan wilderness lives a newly discovered family who was born and raised wild. Billy Brown, his wife Ami and their seven grown children – 5 boys and 2 girls – are so far removed from civilization that they often go six to nine months of the year without seeing an outsider. They’ve developed their own accent and dialect, refer to themselves as a "wolf pack," and at night, all nine sleep together in a one-room cabin. Simply put, they are unlike any other family in America. Recently, according to the Browns, the cabin where they lived for years was seized and burned to the ground for being in the wrong location on public land.

Ami's estranged family does a welfare check at some point and accuses her husband and kids of abusing her, but they're a healthy family and there is no domestic violence.

No one loses a finger or toe, but Matt does crush his hand at some point under a beam building the house. It heals.

Not traditional "shakey cam", but the camera isn't usually incredibly stable.

They HAVE guns, primarily for hunting/scaring off bears, from what I've seen they haven't ever been turned on people.

They show you their bush shower at some point, but no one is in it and it wouldn't constitute as a shower scene.

The family lives off of hunting and gathering, deer and other animals are often killed for the sake of the family sustaining themselves. Nothing is ever wasted.
