Final Thoughts on Utopia Disclaimer: all of these opinions are my own. Obviously, you are all welcome to your own opinions, but since I am the one writing this post, they won’t count. You may disagree with these opinions. That is your right, but it will not change the words you read in the paragraphs below. Utopia started out as being a reality show unlike all the others. And that’s pretty much all we were told about it. A lot of people had expectations about what it should be. It turned out to be different. So here are some quick…

As you can probably tell I’m a huge fan of the new TV show Utopia. And I like to talk about it, a lot, mostly on Twitter. (@tvtater) Recently I’ve seen a lot of people online exhibit no interest in watching the show, or outright dissing it.

Note: I’m not recapping Utopia the way others recap well whatever it is they recap. The show goes on for too long (52 weeks 2x a week + 24/7 internet video streams) and candidly, I’m not a transcription service.

Normally I won’t be doing daily feeds updates, but the first night in Utopia was so awesome I don’t want to forget any of the highlights. If you watch Big Brother, more happened tonight on the Utopia feeds then has happened all season on Big Brother 16. The recipe for success? Gather 15 14 people from opposite sides of the political/religious/economic spectrum, put them around a campfire and give them booze. What could possibly go wrong? EVERYTHING! And as a reality tv (or these days – internet feeds) viewer, it was WONDERFUL!The feeds turned on late this afternoon, a full…
