Interesting

Watched the first episode tonight of Surviving the Iron Age, a show which is already far more interesting than any of the Survivors ever were. The premise: a group of people, including children, try to survive in the conditions (approximate, of course) of Iron Age England. It's very interesting, and thankfully much less repetitive and annoying than the other reality-type programmes currently on the air. The production is originally a BBC serial, but can be seen in North America on PBS on Thursday nights at 8 (at least in the Ontario/Western New York vicinity). Certainly not for the squeamish, though.

We really are pussies in this (post?)(post?)(post?)-modern age....
