Last year, I wrote one of the first reviews of Discovery’s post-apocalyptic reality show The Colony. That meant my post got indexed highly in whatever system search engines use to index articles, so a year later, you’re still likely to come up with it when you search on “The Colony reviews.” And that in turn means that I have become aware, through my blog-referrer logs, that a lot of people out there are very intensely interested in The Colony. As I write this, my year-old post is the second-most-read post on Tuned In, the post gets regular traffic even when the show is not on the air, and there are still comments and arguments being added to it, even now, as if its comments section is itself the remnants of a postapocalyptic civilization, living on in the smoldering wreckage of my long-abandoned post.
All of which suggests another quick look at The Colony, which is back on Discovery, and aired last night.
