The Colony

[Ultraman]

Anyone catching this on the Discovery channel tonight? (it's showing now though)

A group of people placed in a "survival scenario", different ages, skillsets, occupations, etc.

The compound they're in looks like a post apocalyptic junkyard ruin. They seem to be security conscious with a lot of tensions involved with surprise situations (like more colonist suddenly showing up at their door).

Looks interesting - the mechanically minded people might be more important here.

For one reason.

Rules

If you were in that situation, there would be none.

 

[Ultraman]

I hear that! some overacting going on, but their mechanical planning and execution might be interesting

Another dumb reality show where no one knows what to do.

 

[PrimitiveMan]

But they would make their own rules and laws.

The "Reality" part would be a bit more brutal.

Seemed sort of interesting, time will tell, I was interested but hey I'm entertained by Hells Kitchen.

Saw it last night. Looks like another Pasqual in the mix. Glad one of the girls is a martial artist instructor, might need her for bait. I noticed they had a large barrel fire going to dry the socks on a grill. I would make a smaller fire and conserve fuel, limit smoke and signal. A total waste of duct tape to make foot wear out of plastic wrap. If you are going to use it that way, tear into thinner strips or better yet wrap with cordage and reuse. Didn't understand the older guy running around naked. Must be trolling. I will continue to watch it for now. Another reality show. I'd be making a blowgun out of some pipe and wire or a spear. Lure in some birds. Oh I forgot, it's California/
