    Discovery Channel to air “Doomsday Bunkers”
    20 hours ago by Kevin Ritchie Email/Share



    Discovery Channel in the United States is to air a three-part series about the world of underground living.

    Produced by Half Yard Productions, Doomsday Bunkers will premiere on March 7 at 10 p.m. EST and stars Dallas-based Deep Earth Bunker owner Scott Bales and his team of engineers, who build the underground compounds.

    The show will delve into the various survival strategy methods Bales uses in building the hidden facilities, which can feature air systems with nuclear, biological and chemical filters, massive water storage tanks, security systems, gun vaults and decontamination rooms, as well as above ground-style amenities such as custom-built kitchens with granite counter tops, fine floor finishes and luxurious bathrooms. Safety features might include outside hand rails with hidden flame throwers and tsunami pods.

    The show will chronicle the design and construction of the bunkers, including the how and why each one is built, the testing of its safety features, and reveal the completed project at the end.

    Doomsday Bunkers is executive produced by Half Yard’s Greg Smith, Abby Greensfielder and Sean Gallagher. Anna Geddes is executive producer for Discovery Channel.

    Looks interesting. I will watch it.
    In no way do I make any money from anyone related to the firearms industry.

    Ahh hell, it can't be any worse than Nat Geo's Doomsday Preppers. I'll set up a recording on the DVR.

    It looks like it could be good. I like to see some of the set ups used around the country and how they did it all.

    I don't know why I do this to myself, but I just programmed my DVR to record this.

    This is going to be another reality show cluster****.

    Congrats to any businesses who managed to get themselves name-dropped in the 1st season. I'm sure you'll get plenty of "interesting" potential new customers in the coming months
    Oh no, not another lube thread! Read this first: Lubrication 101.

    Got it set on the DVR already.

    Too bad I don't get Nat Geo for that Doomsday Preppers show.

    On a not completely unrelated to the tv goodness topic, Baker Boys on the Military Channel is a good little series to check out.
