Absent dads in the wild on tv dream home shows

Aibu or is anyone else sick as fuck of watching shows about men setting up idyllic lives in the country/ in Costa Rica/ in a shepherds hut etc ....
After divorcing their wife and leaving her to raise the children?
I’ve seen so many of these shows. A man weaves a beautiful home out of banana leaves on a Welsh mountain. Everything is so perfectly perfect. Even the door handles are sympathetic to the landscape. Sadly the kids didn’t quite fit with the vision. How do these men get so much time and money to build this stuff . Is there a counter ex wife , knee deep in plastic crap and peeling jam sandwiches off the carpet, for each and every one of these hobbit home dwellers?

What type of show is this? I can't say I've ever seen one predicated on ex husbands in the wild building huts and brewing beer by sunset.

This sounds like a male fantasy rather than a real TV show. I watch loads of reality TV and have never seen or heard of something like this. Can you give us an example?
