OT: The Colony (TV)

It's a "reality" show...
I think I'll give it a miss as I'm sure much, if not just about all, is heavily scripted.

I'm giving this a miss as well. I remember when the first season of Survivor came on. I thought that the show might be interesting. THat year each person was allowed to bring one item to the camp site. I do not remember if there was any limit on that one item.

I was very disappointed to see that NO ONE brought something as simple as a Leatherman tool. I stopped watching at that point.

I had to stop watching that "reality" program after the first episode, actually I didn't make it past the first pepper spraying.

In that episode they sprayed it at a range of 2 feet right in the models face.
I've used many types, I've had it used on me in training so I know full well that wasn't "pepper spray" by any means.
Even if it was the weakest brand there was no redding of the eyes, there was no skin irritation around the eyes and nose, there was no labored breathing, there was nothing other then the "acting" that they had been sprayed.
Milk would only counteract the pepper spray if they swallowed it, it would actually do no better than if i peed in her eye to flush it.
The eyes need to be flushed and with more liquid then they had milk.

You guys can like it but the first episode alone had far too many red flags for me to bother with that program anymore.
