Title: "Colony" TV series ~ premiers Jan. 14th, 2016
Post by: special-k on December 23, 2015, 12:34:59 AM
NOT to be confused with the "The Colony," a reality/survival TV series that aired for 2 seasons a few years ago.

Quote
Set in the near future, Colony centers on a family headed up by Holloway and Callies who must make difficult decisions as they balance staying together with trying to survive. They live in L.A., which has been occupied by a force of outside intruders. While some people have chosen to collaborate with the authorities and benefit from the new order, others have rebelled and suffer the consequences.


So from what I can gather from trailers, sneak peeks & the special linked below, it will be Hollywood's version of what would have been "Gray State" with small pinches of "Red Dawn", "Soylent Green", "Escape From New York" and "They Live"  thrown in for flavor.

Here is the 1st of a 4 part pre-season special.  Just follow the suggestions on youtube for the other 3 parts (or click the links provided below)...they total around 20 minutes altogether.

Looks "right down my alley". Thanks for the heads up SK.

I couldn't help but notice they made this to be occupied LA Cali (with red, not blue helmets) where the peeps right to self protection is restricted. Then I thought, oh yeah, that's because they want to make it a "series" so it'll go on and on.  :zombitron:


If they just wanted a "movie", they'd have tried to make the story line take place in Texas or some other 2nd Amend friendly state  :gunner: where it'd be over with comparatively quick.  :dancingGrenade:

All cable systems I have dealt with have had that channel in the mid 30s.  36 for me now.  Should be easy to find.

If you run across a NCIS episode and the sun is up, you are very likely there.
