Or are you already living in a community away from society?


BTW, living in a community doesn't necessarily mean that you are living away from society. The opposite is most likely true.

The synopsis of the new show will most likely also be searching around for a political theme for maximum TV controversy effect.

Will it be the aim to show called 'Pioneers' to show so called 'survivalists' as Louis Theroux's Survivalists episode did over 10 years ago.

Have you and your friends been talking about starting a new community with your own rules?


This line reminds me of a small village called Meigle in Perth and Kinross, Scotland who declared that they had declared independance from the UK Government state on their community website about 10+ years ago as a joke. I watched as 2 Chinooks full of troops landed there the next day from the Sidlaw Hills wink

It is the influx of reality TV shows that cause me to spend more time on the internet and less with the boob tube...

Sounds like fun. If you look at my signature you'll see I am very interested in starting a new community. This could very well be just the jump I need to get experience living with others in a start-up capacity and ultimately to bring attention to my nonprofit endeavors. Let's do it! Where do I sign up?

The only problem is that you said you were looking for families, and I am single! Does this mean I'm disqualified? Damn!

I'd need Wi-Fi. And my family consists of Gidget, a Samoyed who would be prone to lick the camera lens. She would enjoy a snowier clime.

Where is this "great American wilderness?"


Not supposed to be using that acronym, Dangy wink

Funny how 2 of you mention wi-fi. What, no corn-cob dolls to occupy your time?

I'd be real curious how you'd get away from the beaurocracy...

I'd keep busy studying all the How To Survive In the Sticks Post-EMP books I've been collecting.

And making voodoo dolls.

Thank you all for your interest.

We are still very much in the early stages of pre-production on this project. At the moment we want to make contact with people from a whole range of different backgrounds to find out a little about their story, their goals and their outlook on life.

As of yet many of the details are still flexible and will depend on who we speak to and how the project progresses.

Many thanks,

Paul (Seth recently brought me into team here at Raw and I will be helping on this project)
