What Parents Need to Know
About American Loggers
Parents need to know that this reality series -- which follows the crew of a Maine logging company -- offers an honest look at the hard work, financial uncertainty, and inherent dangers that come with the job. This gritty show often explores real-life issues that are too intense for little kids (a man loses his home to fire and barely pulls out of diabetic shock, for example), and loggers talk frankly about the injuries they've endured on the job. Tensions run high when the company's owners disagree, but overall the show celebrates their work ethic and determination.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the appeal of docu-reality series like this one. Why do you think viewers like shows about people going about their everyday lives? Is it because their "everyday lives" are more dangerous/interesting than most viewers'? Do you think these jobs are as dangerous in real-life as they seem on TV? Families can also discuss careers. How do geography and socio-economics affect someone's eventual career choice? What other factors go into the mix?
