TV show description:
Based on a Dutch program, this reality show follows a group of 14 pioneering everyday people (chosen out of more than 5,000 applicants) who say goodbye to the lives they’ve known for a year.
They move to a remote location with limited supplies, diverse backgrounds, and zero bathrooms. They have to figure out how to survive and create their own society.
The series is scheduled to be shown twice a week but live streams are available for viewing online 24 hours a day, seven days a week thanks to 129 cameras planted throughout the Utopia compound.
Each month, three pioneers who are considered to be dispensable are nominated and could be banished (sent back to the outside world). The home audience will have a chance to vote for which candidates get to take their place.
Episode #12 — Week 7 & 8 in Utopia
First aired: October 31, 2014.
What do you think? Do you like the Utopia TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or kept on the air?
If Fox is smart, they will continue to let the Utopians live on the farm, and will continue to record them over the year. The only rule will be that there is absolutely no interference from Fox or any of the media. Fox will not give them any funds or help them in any way. They will be responsible for truly living on their own. The would still be able to market themselves online and have the “Utopia Experience”, as well as sell their wares, but the difference is that the general public will not have a hand in evicting… Read more »
Cancelled? Noooooooooooooooooo!!!
Finally a show that could hold my interest for more than 5 minutes… Loved waiting to see what kind of drama would pop up and how it would be handled… Please bring it back
The show was different from other reality shows, it felt real. It was a good show. Bring it back even if its in the middle of Thursday afternoon, I will record it. Fox has left way worse shows on the air for a much longer time.
I am shocked by the comments saying they liked this show. I watched all of the episodes and was really hopeful for the show but WOW was it boring. It wasn’t even what it was suppsed to be. They werent out on their own like the show led us to be believe, they were given money, visitors and allowed to do jobs that were tied to the viewers coming into the compound? REALLY? How is that setting up a new society? It’s not….so ho hum. I am not shocked at all. My friends and I all had bets on when… Read more »
I keep looking for the show, now that I now Fox has pulled it I’m sad, you can’t just pull it it, you have to at least end the story line for those of us that have been loyal to the show.
You guys are loony! You finally make a decent show worth watching, and you pull it because of the low ratings on Halloween?!? Duh, of course they’re going to be low on Halloween–all your viewers are out with their kids! You should have just skipped that week like so many shows do when there is something else on that would draw the viewers away. Now we’ve lost the only reality show I’ve ever liked. Shame on you!
Loved the show. Real reality. It was a true reflection of this country and the world. Bring it back.
Bring it back! I miss the Utopians
I loved the show Utopia! Please bring it back!
This wast favorite show. Bring it back
This was one of my favorite shows I looked forward to it every week. It’s a shame that it had to be cancelled. We want it back.
I was looking for the show on tonight and could not find it. I was sure it was time for it to come on, so I started looking on-line to see when it was on. Found out it had been cancelled. I really enjoyed this show.
you finally put a reality show on with a GOOD purpose and made since to us seniors.
I enjoyed the show and looked forward to watching it. Much better than anything else FOX has on Fri. nights.
