Watching: The Colony

Last night I came upon an amazing new reality/survival show on Discovery. It's called The Colony, where a bunch of strangers come together to test their knowledge and specialty areas (engineering, security, nursing and many others) in a post-apocalyptic scenario. They must find their own water, food, and other factors to survive. The show is a mix of the Will Smith film, I Am Legend and Survivor. I like to think of it as a modern, gritty Swiss Family Robinson, which was one of my childhood favorites.

I was hooked within the first five minutes. Watch to see if you will too.
