Unrealistic because one of the most important things would be to reproduce. That's right. In that situation you just gotta keep impregnating the women.

And I'm assuming that won't happen....
Oh no

When you say "whose backgrounds and expertise represent a cross-section", it's like taking an engineer, a marketer, a fireman, a cop, a wall-mart salesman etc. ?


Not only that, rebuilding society more than anything relies on philosophy and politics. Is there a Libertarian, National Socialist, Marxist, Socialist, etc. Seriously, 10 people is about 1% of the sample size needed for any such experimentation. In fact, you really can't do any scientific experiment, because god forbid any scenario that would precipitate the need to rebuild society we have no idea how people will react. There is no way other than the real thing happening. We can only hope that humanity wouldn't devour itself, in which I give us a 50/50 shot. There certainly will be nothing resembling the US for a very long time. I see alot of centralized powerful leaders that would rise up, much like most of human history.

Think of it has restarting from the beginning. A sad notion indeed.

That kind of thing develops and the society grows and forms a need for such things.

With a community of ten people trying to rebuild a stable life, I don't think that'll be a huge issue.

what are the odds that 2/10 of the "representative" population could build a flamethrower and claymore from scratch? not very high lol
The number of years it takes for the Internet to move past anything is way, way over 9000.

It's all the more annoying because it's not just a camera.

Camera + Camera crew + lighting + lighting crew + sound crew + producers + production assistants + catering + portable toilets + lawyers + meidcal crew + more and more and more.

Any TV show with that level of production involves a platoon of people.

Notice how many camera angles there are in that one short clip.

And having them walk towards the camera like that? You think that's not staged?

Isolation, desolation, my ass.

Yep. Its obliviously staged -_-.

& bad acting when that girl said she would rather take the fucking toilet paper instead of electricity.

But no show like that can be real, they get everything done right before they really need it.

and its TV
No no no no its not mine!

I'm watching the EP2 here.
It's pretty entertaining. I don't know if it's fully scripted but, well, fun

LOL the handyman is a f-troll T.T

Sounds like it should be called something like "surviving the apocalypse" rather than "the colony".

did i break my internet browser or something ? When i go to youtube to watch clips from the show, all i get is the same scene repeating over and over with the sound playing out normally.

lol the handyman makes the show. other then the crazy things they make, he is the only guy who really is out of the box personality wise. I he said in one of the shows "quitting alcohol and smoking isn't enough...." referring to apparently him being some alcoholic handyman! hahah
