I never heard of the show. On cable TV maybe? We only get TV off an antenna.
What baffles me is people with families that blow tons of money, and/or go into debt taking vacations, dining out, buying toys like RVs, ATVs, boats, new over-priced shiny cars and trucks, et. Yet do absolutely nothing to prepare for anything. Most I know could not survive for a few days without the local market and gas station being open and the grid power working. It gets 25 F below here in the winter, yet most I know do not even have alternative heating systems.
We can be self-sufficient for a year here - easily. That is unless I had a heart attack. I can't do heart surgery - especially on myself. We make all own electricity, have food stored to feed four people for a year. Also have plenty of guns, traps, ammo, water filters, radiation detectors, engines that run on wood-smoke, 1000 gallons of diesel and 1000 gallons of propane, etc.
Big problem as I see it is protecting what you have if things DO get bad. Humans by nature tend to be "nice" only when not hungry or cold.

That being said - I suspect the people with the best chance of surviving hard times will have groups that support and protect each other.
I'm also glad this country used to have a Civil Defense system. Because of that there's lot of good new government stuff from the 60s available cheap. I love the portable radiation detectors. If anyone ever hits a part of the US with nuclear - and all radio and TV is out - most people would not have a clue which direction to run. At least with these detectors - you can tell if your moving towards . . . or away from a bad area.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
