Anybody watching The Colony? Just watched the first 3 episodes and it's the first tv show in over 10yrs that's held my interest for more than 5 mins.
Good to get a newbies angle on doing preps no?

just watched it, I think it was 277 travel channel, but I've changed channel now. Kind of interested to see how the unarmed yuppies do against the armed biker gang next week. yawn.

What stupid show. Doing it for real in Alaska was 1 thing, but staging it in downtown LA with fake robbers is stupid.

its about as stupid as survivor

Of course it is contrived. Still the solutions for water filtration and power are pretty interesting. In the real world when the bad boys show up with the 50 cal and the Aks, the colony would find its only chance to survive would be to convince the raiders to let them live as slaves.

I hadn't heard of this even though I'm a pretty regular discovery watcher luckily it seems they have video available there I can catch up

Saw the first three. There are some gems sprinkled amongst the melodrama.

The wood-burning gasifier (sp) was amazing to me.

At this point, can the marine biologist be sacrificed to the zombies as obsolete?

The series takes place over the course of ten weeks and was filmed in an industrial area bordering the Los Angeles River on the edge of downtown Los Angeles, and follows ten volunteers in an environment that simulates life after a global catastrophe

Its only been on since the end of July. I watched my first episode Tuesday night around 10pm.
