Critic Reviews

Hoggers is more down-market than Beers' crab fishermen and ice road truckers.

American Hoggers turns out to be a remarkably straightforward show, almost closer to a documentary.

Chasing and catching boars may be all well and good, but is it enough to keep us coming back for more every week? Well, if people can watch people fight over storage bins and seeing their cars towed away in South Beach, anything is possible.

All this is interesting enough to watch once. The premiere, though, doesn't do much to establish the kind of dynamics--sibling rivalries, simmering romance-- that serve as subplots for these types of shows.
