Has anyone watched “The Colony” ?
I only watched the trailers before the season premier.
It seems to me this show would be endorsement for the Second amendment.
If 50% or more of the residents owned an AR-15 and 2,000 rounds of ammo this show would not make past the first 10 minutes.
But remember it takes place in California.

Fun show, not screaming high production value, but enjoyable to watch and the story progresses nicely.

I watched every episode and it was worth watching.

I'll watch season 2 when it comes back on.

The "bad guys" defeated the worlds militaries in 1 night.........I'm not real sure an AR would help much against the real BGs but the collaborators it would do a number on....but that would bring down the wrath of the "bosses".

Yeah... thought this thread was about the latter, which I've seen and wasn't bad at all.



What we're apparently talking about I have no idea.

Is OP talking about the show on USA that recently completed season one?...

I wish they didn't end on a cliffhanger on the identity of the aliens.

I'm guessing they're genetically modified human children.

I used to live in The Colony, TX, a northern burb of Dallas.

It's a lower middle class community essentially founded by Fox & Jacobs in the early 1970s as a bedroom community.

It's main industry was package stores until Warren Buffet opened up North America's largest furniture store there....Nebraska Furniture Mart.

That store has sales of about $50 million a month.  Sales tax revenues to The Colony run about $1 million per month.

No zombies but the main north-south road, Main Street, is under construction and it's a fucking nightmare.

Very good show.  I was surprised to find myself siding with the collaborators more often than the resistance.  The acting is much better than Falling Skies, IMO.  Not as much action, though.

To be fair, both needed more AR-15s and ammo.

I thought it was pretty good.  Will watch season 2.  I just wished they would show more background on the aliens and what led to the current situation.

Seems like it's going to be like Lost - where they just make shit up as they go & they don't answer anything.

I'll still probably watch season 2.

Well it did premiere 1/27/16 so season 2 starting January 2017 seems about right.  Seems to be progressing okay,  just wish they gave a back story on the invasion.
