Um, Hi mom? I know I thought signing up for this show would be my big break, BUT GET ME OUT OF HERE!!
There's a chick who carries around a bow but won't shoot anything USEFUL, a redneck with ADHD who just might build a machine in the middle of the night to kill us all so he and his bromance can have ramen noodles, a manipulative blond hippy who I'm pretty sure is going to go "ALL SHALL LOVE ME AND DESPAIR" any minute, a whole bunch of exhibitionists, the most pathetic prude, an Asian chick who should have "Me love you long time" tattooed on her forehead, and an alcoholic easily manipulated emptyheaded surferdude. To top it off there's a pregnant lady here AND I DON'T KNOW NOTHIN' 'BOUT BIRTHIN' NO BABIES!!!
Am I missing anyone? Personal thoughts?
I'd love it if Chef Ramsey could visit and start screaming at these twits. Well, someone needs to...

I watched the first episode, and barely got through it. These 15 people have to live with each other for a year, yet, they almost kill each other in the first couple of days? I like junk TV (Survivor), but this show Utopia just sucks.

They intentionally picked the people they knew would cause the most over-the-top drama, I think. I know that sounds obvious, but I was kind of hoping it would be like the series that PBS did- Frontier House or Texas Ranch House...
I don't think there's anything to be gleaned here. Except a nice illustration to my kid why it's good to have actionable skills that don't involve a computer. AND that people are nuts

I didn't catch the fist ep. From the second ep, I was left wondering if every one of them was just escaped from the looney bin.
The most sane among them seemed (in my short observation) that asian woman (Brie?) having sex in the hayloft, maybe the toothless redneck, and the guy that the craziest lady tried to get thrown out of the compound.
So my thought was what crazyness will each of these seemingly rational units expose in later episodes? Maybe the asian girl is just there to make all the menfolk jealous or vie for her affections/coochie.
The place would improve greatly, or at least stand a chance of functioning if they get rid of the "lawyer", "chef" and the uber-crazy lady "survivalist prepper" - otherwise they seem doomed.

All of this junk TV might go away if people would stop watching it.

Shirley you jest.
Never underestimate the stupidity of the American commercial spender.

The only thing I could really come up with as they have in common is they all have about as little self-control as possible. I actually would like to see some of the things that were mentioned in the commercials being debated, but we from RWED know how that would end anyway, don't we

A while back, I think it was The Discovery Channel, had a show called The Colony. Same concept, but much better done.

Never saw commercial about it.
