So is this TV's craziest new reality show or what? 

Fox's Utopia premiered tonight and we finally got to see what they really meant by "no rules" and "no leaders." There were actually a few rules, a few "leaders," and a whole lot of arguing as 15 people began their attempts to create a better world by living in the semi-wilderness for a whole year. 

Tonight, we met the first inhabitants of Utopia – including a pastor, a chef, an ex-con, a huntress, and a "doomsday prepper" – and watched them attempt to establish things like beds, meals, and toilets. The premiere had all the drama of several Real Housewives episodes combined, and it was sort of amazing. 

Two inhabitants already hooked up after bonding over their love of animals. A trial was held after one guy was too much of a drunken jerk. "Hunteress Hex" had to be treated for alcohol poisoning after just one night of bourbon. One woman tried and failed to keep her pregnancy a secret. We've never seen a show like this, and we're quite intrigued. 

We want to know what you thought! Will you be sticking around to see how things work out, or was the drama just a little too much for you? Vote in our poll, and then head to the comments to let us know what you thought!
