But... Dad is a legend in his own mind.
I have no doubt he knows what he's talking about. He can come up with some pretty ingenious solutions to difficult problems. Misty and Mat both learned a great deal from him and expanded on that, very much to the good.
I've seen some of the shows here and there, and recently decided to start watching them in order on Discovery +. I'm on the third one (because the second show of season 1 isn't available for streaming) and the homeowners in this one are utter morons.
First of all, they call the Raneys to their home to help them not just survive, but thrive. They refuse every single bit of advice the Raneys give them, 100%. The husband is also a complete narcissist who wouldn't take advice from a woman (Misty) if his life depended on it. He actually said to her, "I'm the one who lives here so I know what it's really like." Really? Is that why the Raneys are there? Because YOU know better than them?
I hope the homesteaders become less moronic as time goes on. The couple in the third show of the first season rely more on YouTube videos than they do three people who have homesteaded their entire lives and the complete lack of intelligence when it comes to animals and living in the country have me ready to scream.
