The Colony - May Contain Spoilers

[Cheaptimes]

Any one check this out on discovery? A simulated end of the world situation where 8 people are dropped into a 10 acre abandoned neighborhood.
Their first week in the "new world" and they were already attacked by scavengers and got all their stuff looted.

Will see what happens next.

I DVR'd it, but haven't watched it yet. I want to be on the show.

the idea is sick but in reality its pretty whack.you have to pretend theres a possible virus outbreak ,when those people come to your camp you have to play fight them and if they touch you your quarentined for 12 hours.its like real life dungeon and dragons shit for adults

lol... only 1/2 true. The mob pepper spreyed everyone. couple elbows thrown, some pipes were swung and connected. The colony definitely were hesitant to give a better fight.

show would be way better if you took a "ULTIMATE FIGHTER HOUSE" and had zombies tryin to go in and take there shit.let them really go at it.quality TV

I watched the first season of this show and I loved the projects they did.

I'll admit the "intruders" aspect of the show is pretty gay, but the stuff they they built was pretty sick

-Wood gasifier
-Spark-gap transmitter
-Tesla Coil & Ozonator

crazy!

I watched it last night on the dvr it was pretty dope. I wish they would have smashed the invaders when they first showed up instead of trying to be nice and giving away their shit.

 

[ColdBlooded]

Hmmm we've got these rotting pigs what should we do with them. Oh I know! Lets make fucking bio diesel. OK, riiiiiight.


I liked that show they did in Alaska like this much better. But so far I'm still watching.

What is your issue with that? Too convenient?

 

[ColdBlooded]

Too much specialized knowledge for “average” people.

The Alaska Experiment

Yeah I totally agree with that.

Last season was even worse with some of the crazy shit those people were doing.

Although I watch the show more for what they build than to see if a group of random people could survive such a scenario. They could just build the shit in a warehouse (Mythbusters style) and I would be just as happy.

If they took away the worthless girl from my colony I would tell the outsiders they could keep her cuz it's one less mouth to feed and she didn't do anything anyway.

 

[UCDgreek]

^^^ha her looks is all she has going for her. but she is fine.

I like how last season they built a flamethrower that shot about 8-9 feet as if they were going to set some actors on fire to defend themselves.

 

[MysticOracle]

that show is ridiculous in damn near every way....that model botch gets abducted, and you wanna give away gas and medical to get her back....that bitch has been useless from the start ...using the clean filtered water to wash her hair....i wouldnt put up with that shit at all, minus her quick....she's nothing more than a way too repopulate (cum dumpster) she has no skills whatsoever by far the most useless....and then that teacher ( black lady ) she doesnt bring much to the table either...everyone else though would be te ideal people you would want stranded with you...all those people are crazy inventors...dude should be making more than 1 machete.....and they need to get the security up faster...shit should be priority one....you dont need power to set up perimeter alarms or fencing...these fuckers are too focused on power sources, which is needed but that fuckin wind will as cool as it is....its gonna attract outsiders real quick....and probably people that in real life would kill them to have it

but i like the show so far...its amazing to see what they come up with

Last season was way better. This season kinda sucks. But on a positive note the model chick Becka would get the bizness...........

 

[DVS ONE]
