[TV] The Colony - Could you cope?

Postby Brett Kay » Thu Aug 27, 2009 2:43 pm

Just discovered an interesting Tv Show. Watched the first 3 episodes and must admit, has me wondering.

Synopsis
The series, which throws together 10 people to survive holed up in a warehouse after a simulated epidemic has destroyed civilization, chooses a group of people whose skills and knowledge would have special use in this Road Warrior world. There are engineers, a nurse, a machinist, a handyman, a doctor.

My Opinion.
This is better than watching a movie, people are getting angry at each other. Tensions keep building when people dismiss valid suggestions and focus on luxury (showers) when they should be focusing on Security. Even though it is controlled, the scenarios are interesting. Having Marauders watching you when foraging, or attacking your warehouse in the wee hours of the morning. To trying to conserve resources.

Sounds pretty good. On cable or free to air? Or downloadable?

Cheers, will look into it. I like the idea of having to defend your colony, first I've seen on these sorts of survivalist shows.
