This ia a great reality show. I could not tell in the beginning if it was a real show with real people or actors.... but realized it had to be real. I am amazed that so many families open themselves up to being filmed at a most emotional time, but what I have learned from this show about Maori and Samoan culture and their view of death explains it. I am an atheist and hate the American way of death and still do not like funerals at all - waste of money and time - but really like how these polynesian cultures express grief and family love.
The most interesting part of the show is the the relationship of Francis and his wife. They are a hoot and if half of what is shown is actually true then they are quite a pair.
The other staff people are also a hoot and even though I hate funerals and most directors...they would be a fun crowd to work with.
Give this show a try!
