You guys should like this... their hired actors and what not but the second season is a little more realistic (survivors get peper sprayed and slighty beat up by raiders)
Its a "reality" show that involves the "what if" your trying to survive a post apocalyptic environment or a nuclear holocaust (in season two)

Personally I sit there thinking "hit them! Damnit kill those 3 strangers! Their going to comprimise your base!" but the actors dont listen... oh well its stil a fun show to watch to see how "not" to survive

[Parowooz]

I watched the first episode. Raiders didn't even try to beat up the "survivors". Instead of making shitty reality shows and trying to tell people it's not pre-directed, make a decent post-apo movie.

[corosive]

they "slightly" did, they got thrown around and elbowed a few times in the spine/ neck (look closely lol) but their actors and their unionized...

decent post apoc films? Head over to the IRC channel 2238 on forestnet and chat about it. You will find some good post apoc movies.

I watched all of season 1 once on a rainy day and believe me what bothered me the most was the blond nurse. She was an attention whore, being the most dramatic, crying alot, arguing everything and being on projects that made no sense why she was on them.

Also in the second season the black gym specialist got hit in the head and she almost hit one if the "actor" i mean raiders with a pole. Funny as hell.

[corosive]

Yeah lol you heard the loud "dong" and the "raider" acted all girly and kinda ran away. Decent show tho, they should use shock colars to simulate death and paintball guns to simultate real weaponry. Every couple of episodes should be new survivors that have to pick up the pieces from the old group that got murdered by raiders. Leave "bodies" lying around (or get rid of them to simulate cannibalism) and big pools of pigs blood around where they died. It would simulate fear, biohazardous conditions, and a real sense of "survival". Shit there would be no more "lets give out some resources" it would be more a long the lines of "Hey we got company. Aim for the head, don't let them leave here alive." Lol the survivors could even choose to "eat" their victims -> exchange a "body" for some meat and pretend their eating the raider. Shit I bet season 3 will be ZOMBIES!!!

There's 4 episodes out right now for season 2, il watch em' soon. I wonder how we get on this show? It's almost Survivor: End of the world.

[xPoncex]

Did you see the end of season 1? I was like WTF dude you know you're on a fucking tv show that isnt real why are you staying back?

[avv]

Breeding is part of surviving. If they didn't fuck in every episode the show is garbage.

[corosive]

They brought a super model in season 2 (I think she gets kidnapped by Raiders )

But yeah season 1 ending was like wtf "Your staying? Dude the jobs done... WHo are you Mr. Heath Ledger? Let it gooooo man, your just an actor"

Last ep of season 1 wasn't too bad tho, it was more exciting then some of the episodes... The fighting could be a lot more realistic, why don't they wear MMA gloves disguised as biker gloves? Id love to go on this show we wouldnt have a raider problem just a problem hiding the bodies In the end the "Raiders" would be confused as to who the bad guys were and would just be too afraid to come knocking on my front door.  Shit they gave the survivors a knife in season 2 and they didnt even use to defend themselves with...

Oh well its not reality but it makes good tv...

[Sius]

This could make a good TV show: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250258
X random people, first days with overseeing and instructions and then bye bye. Leave people in their roles but with 0 interaction with outside world and only with their judgment whats ok and what not...

That could be some nasty reality show.

Ahhh The Stanford Prison Experiment, you should really watch the video of this psychology case. It's pretty messed up, some Prof. hired a bunch of dudes and made a makeshift prison in some unused section of the campus. The Prof. himself was to be the warden and oversee the project, half of the people participating were to be used as guards and the rest of prisoners. At first everyone was like "har har har look at me" but after only few days everyone started to take this seriously. Like the guards who put a bad prisoner into a closet to teach everyone a lesson in respect and authority. It started getting out of control because even the Prof. who was the overseer er go to into the case and violated the 3 rules of ethical psychology.
