The Colony

The Colony is a reality show on the Discovery Channel. They place 10 people in a "post apocolyptic world". To sum it up these ten people are Will Smith in the movie The Legend. Their goal is to put thier skills together and try to live a somewhat normal life. The first thing they do, to simulate the stress after a huge disaster, is stay up for 36 hours. Then they get to raid a department store and take whatever they can carry. Right when they were about to leave they got mugged by other survivors. Just random people to make it more realistic. After they gather all their 200 ibs worth of supplies, they carried it 8 miles to their colony. The colony is huge. It reminds me of Rob and Bigs fun world. There are lots of things in their colony for them to use. Like an old car and other machanical tools. The 10 people living in the colony are quite diverse. There's an old guy named John who looks like the scientist off Back to the Future. He's a computer engineer. He's pretty cool. There are also two doctors and a handyman. Their first priority was to get water. They voyaged to a river drain and collected as much as they could. As soon as they got back they worked on getting the restrooms situated. Good idea. I bet all those people start to stink. That night the colonist finally get some sleep for the first time in over 40 hours. However that night an outsider tried to break in. Big bad handyman scared him away though. The following day four survivors show up and ask if they can live in the colony. The colonist agreed to let them stay. That was pretty much it for the first episode. I would personaly love to do this. I think it would be a blast to survive on my own on a reality show.
