I see that YouTube link I posted wasn't actually the full show. I updated the link, so you should try it again if you were confused by the random 4 minute clips! My apologies, I caught this plague and had a brain fever.
The initial idea was to watch just one a week, to relive the magic of broadcast television, but to be honest I'm not sure that this is even going anywhere anymore. I'm starting to feel a mild, creeping regret for even bringing this about... but I know I must see it through. Just like the producers of this show, I can only hope my foolhardy persistence will pay off in raw human drama accompanied by low viewing figures!
Upon my first re-watching, my thoughts naturally center on that jerk Mike, like everyone else. His technical experience is barely enough reason to keep him in The Colony (the tv show). In reality (the real apocalypse), most of the rest of these wimps would get turned into salt mine slaves tooth-sweet without a bastard like that around to keep everyone safe and afraid. Still, if I was there and he called me a kid to get me to do something, I would roll him all around the edges of that warehouse in the dirt using his own pipe, just like old kids used to roll those wheels down the sidewalk with sticks. Watch your mouth when you're talking to me, Mike.
Not much else to say as things are just getting started, and everyone looks dumb so far! Can't wait to remember why I loved this show so much. Maybe next week.
In the meantime, enjoy a heady browsing around Mike's personal website
