Often these supplementary websites feel too much like homework to me, but I thought I'd check it out. I'm on an iPad. It crashed Chrome, which is not unusual since the last OS and browser updates (or lack thereof), but then it crashed Safari. I guess it needs Flash or something. I might try it on the Puffin browser later, but, yeah, feels like homework, heh.

After only a few clicks it does look like quite a well made site.. but no, not something I'd try using on an ipad or mobile device unfortunately

Josh was on Jimmy Kimmel last night and said Colony was going to be like Lost in that you don't know what's going on right away.  Things get revealed in layers.  I did like that in Lost but they totally "lost" me with that ending.  Hope they figure out something better for this one.

Colony Renewed for second season by USA Network. Woohoo!

 

Colony - Episode 1.04 - Blind Spot - Press Release, Promo, Sneak Peek & Promotional Photos *Updated*

[SimoneS]

I was iffy on the first season, but second season trailer looks pretty good since we get to see the invasion. I will be watching tonight.

Renewed for season 3!

I've enjoyed this season quite a lot. Glad it has another season.

[Hanahope]

Yes!!

[SimoneS]

Good news! Season two was a major improvement. Hopefully, this trend continues in season three.

[thewhiteowl]

Got a season premiere date of 3\18. Yay!

Is that still true?  I haven't seen any commercials about it, and I can't find that date on their website?  I was really hoping for a Season 2 marathon before Season 3 begins.  I fear March 18th (while I've seen that date on several websites) is not the actual start date for Season 3.

[paulvdb]

I checked tvdb, wikipedia and futoncritic. None of them have a premiere date listed for season 3.

[thewhiteowl]

I got it from tvdb, then it disappeared. Then it was back. Maybe gone again. IDK!

[justmehere]

Not listed in my DVR schedule. USA Network site just says Spring 2018. If they haven't set a date yet for March, then maybe April?

Looks like Netflix has it.

[justmehere]

Season 3 premiers on May 2

(Very mild spoiler about when the season picks up from last season.)

My internet isn't good enough for me to watch all that.  Too much data!  I'll just wait.  I think they showed Season 1 just before Season 2 started.  If they don't, I'll just have to hope I remember it well enough.

[justmehere]

Just saw this re: recurring roles for the new season (mild spoilers in the role descriptions).

We'll see. He's got some pretty serious theater credits -- including in Hamilton as Aaron Burr -- so, not just on game shows.

[Haleth]

Oh, I didn't know that.  I've only seen him goofing around on Whose Line. 

[justmehere]

Yeah - I knew about Hamilton but was surprised when I heard. That's some pretty heavy lifting.

[raven]

Colony is back May 2!

Teaser trailer at the link as well.

[SimoneS]

I liked the trailer. This season has potential.

[Cigale]

Maybe have your friends read  this if they don’t watch Colony...

[ottoDbusdriver]

News is not good -- Colony has been cancelled.

Hope this Wednesday's season finale isn't a cliffhanger. </fingerscrossed>

[Haleth]

Aww, shoot.

[Accidental Martyr]

Damn.

[AngelKitty]

Sure, now that it's getting interesting. ?

[MBayGal]

Noooooooooooo!!!!!!

[nitrofishblue]

Wow, how can they wrap up the story?

[Emily Thrace]

I fully expect Netflix to pick this up. Its trending on their app almost constantly. It fits better with their brand than the Expanse (I almost wonder if that might be part of why they passed on it. The Expanse was much more expensive too). Its still a critical hit which Netflix needs right now. 

[nitrofishblue]

NetFlix is not an option for me. I don't subscribe. I prefer Amazon Prime. I know this is an older series but I have been binge watching the BBC series Primeval. Been a fun watch so far.

I loved this show!!

Too bad about Colony.  I don't comment a lot but I watch and I did like it and though Josh Holloway was really showing some acting skill.

I sure hope so, if only to complete the series 

[nasir jones]

Well, that sucks.  This season introduced some of the best storylines on the show other than the Red Hand and Charlie's return.

I was going to suggest giving Bezos a call since he saved The Expanse.  Netflix would be good too.

[eskimo]

This sucks.  And I'm extra pissed that they announced it before Season 3 finale.  Now I'll watch knowing that the story won't be completed.  They couldn't wait four more days?  Assholes. 

[Anela]

damn it. 

[Earlwoode]

What a pity.  It was one of the best sci-fi series on TV.  I hope Netflix picks it up but I'm not holding my breath.  Must be awful for the actors to now be unemployed.
