Colony

Title says it all and this got me scratching my head and asking myself, what the heck people want anymore. When I take a look at shows like The Shannara Chronicles (which I finished and don't even ask me why I had do so). with higher ranking, while show had lower production quality or most recent The 100 season, I don't think audience really knows itself.

To cut to the chase, don't be fooled by low ratings of this show because it's TV show with carefully crafted plot and characters.Characters are designed in the way that you are going to like them or hate them, or even find idol among them. Casting crew is good, I have to say that acting is really decent.

Plot is unfolding slowly, by the end of season you have basic grasp of what is going on, since everything is still wrapped in the veil of mystery but what's really important is that plot is strong and rich. Also, it's lightweight, meaning there aren't mysteries under mysteries that will bore you to death while watching a show.

Action is present but it's nothing fancy, CGI generated, it's actually as humanly as possible, show is more about intrigue,crimish orientated.Simply put it's classical thriller.

I highly recommend everyone to give this show a shot, if you are looking for thrilling and enjoyable TV show.

Right when it starts to get super good you wanna cancel it ? Yeah it starts off slow and you're wondering if it's just another political show but it's not it's so much more they built momentum from season 1 to present it's very sad it was cancelled, i just got done watching it on netflix and thought it was amazing, i wanna know what happens next!

What a bunch of morons to cancel this series without some kind of ending. Will NEVER start a series again by USA

I don't often write reviews, leaving this to more learned critics, but I just had to mention what a successful mix this is of drama and sci-fi thriller. The actors all do excellently, and the show benefits greatly from letting your imagination paint a worse picture due to what you don't see. There are ominous echoes of our own history here and there, as the occupying forces are rarely shown, but their power is obvious, especially given the traitorous collaboration of the government. This show really keeps me looking forward to more of the unraveling mystery; what is the true intention of these mysterious invaders? There are some gritty characters that work well and one feels for the family. The effects are few but shockingly effective. All throughout the series manages to maintain a tense paranoid atmosphere which never allows you to relax. I think it's a really good example of sci-fi TV and hope it continues until completion unlike so many promising shows today.

Series three finished with a cliffhanger and no ending. Why the heck can't these production houses plan things better. I get it, ratings go down a bit, ditch the show. Well in that case, plan and write the series so that the actual ending is at the end of series three without the need for a fourth series. Bloody dishonourable morons. Art and business don't mix so well. I want to know what happened !

They could give the go-ahead like what happened with sense-8. Fund a final chapter. The final act could be compressed into a single movie length episode. So they save money, and appease us fans.
