Colony is an American science fiction drama television series created by Carlton Cuse and Ryan J. Condal, starring Josh Holloway and Sarah Wayne Callies.[3] A ten-episode first season premiered with an online preview release of the first episode on USA Network's website on December 15, 2015, following the launch of a game-like website[4] to promote the show.
The series had its broadcast premiere on USA Network on January 14, 2016.[5] In April 2017, Colony was renewed for a third season which premiered on May 2, 2018.[6][7] On July 21, 2018, USA Network announced they had cancelled the series after three seasons.[8]
Setting
In a dystopian near-future Los Angeles, residents live under a regime of military occupation by an organization known as the Transitional Authority. The Authority serves an extraterrestrial group referred to as the "Hosts", about whom little is known until later in the series (an alien robotic race finds itself hunted, who came to Earth to use humans as allies and labor in their own battle). The symbol of the collaborating forces features stylized birds of prey, or raptors, which gives rise to their nickname, the "Raps". The Authority enforces Host policy via militarized police called Homeland Security and nicknamed the "Redhats" for the red helmet cover of their otherwise black tactical attire.
The Hosts took control on a day known simply as the "Arrival". That day began with a global blackout and mass technological failure, which came after a weeklong hunt for relevant key figures around the world. Late that day, massive rectangular blocks descended from the sky, linking together to build walls dividing every city and every nation. One of these walls, 20 to 30 stories tall, many meters thick and many miles in length, surrounds the central part of Los Angeles, where the series is set. Other similar walls have been constructed around neighbouring urban areas, called "blocs", with the whole referred to as a "colony". Traffic passes through the walls at heavily secured checkpoints, called "gateways", which allow the Authority to strictly control the movement of people and the distribution of consumables, such as food and fuel, which are rationed. The geographical extent of the alien invasion is unclear, but later scenes in the series shows Authority members from all over the world - hence making the invasion scale worldwide.
A privileged class of elites, drawn by the Hosts from the local population, are denigrated by some bloc residents as collaborators. The ruling forces maintain control through the separation of family members, shoot-on-sight curfews, forced disappearances, random checkpoints, frequent electronic identity checks, limitation of motor vehicle usage (most people walk or ride bicycles), pervasive visual propaganda, slave labor in a place called the "Factory" (later revealed to be located on the Earth's moon to mine radioactive materials), and massive continuous electronic surveillance with both hidden cameras as well as Host-provided drone aircraft that launch from hangar bays inside the wall and capable of killing humans by extremely lethal high energy weaponry. Some medical problems, such as diabetes, have been "deemed unworthy for treatment" by the Hosts, to cull the population and eradicate weakness (as strong humans are needed for off-world labour and the Hosts war effort).
A resistance movement is referred to as both the "Resistance" and the "Insurgency". An informal barter-based black market has also sprung up, trading in surplus materials and home-produced goods.
Allusion to historical events
In a May 21, 2015, interview with Collider, executive producer Carlton Cuse stated that the show was "conceived as a metaphor for France during the Nazi occupation".[9] In a separate interview with Entertainment Weekly, co-creator Ryan Condal detailed that the original concept behind Colony was that they "were actually inspired by Nazi-occupied Paris during WWII, where people went on living their lives, having coffee in street-side cafes while Nazi officers marched along the roads".[10]
Plot
The series begins less than a year after the arrival of aliens who occupy Earth. It follows the Bowmans and their extended family in Los Angeles. Their son, Charlie, was on a school sports trip and was separated from them when alien walls sectioned off part of the city. The father, Will Bowman, is a former FBI agent and retired Army Ranger who reluctantly joins the Redhats (humans collaborating with the aliens) and is tasked with tracking down members of the Resistance, after being threatened that he and his family would be sent to "the Factory" if he did not comply. Unbeknownst to Will, his wife, Katie, is an operative in the Resistance. She later reveals this, and they begin to trade information. Their son, Bram, discovers a way under the wall, and later joins a rival resistance group.

Snyder learns it is a cover for total rendition: the entire population is being sent to the Factory. Blackjacks follow Will and Katie to Broussard's bunker which is overwhelmed, but the agents try to take Will and Broussard alive and are themselves killed. With no way to get the gauntlet out, Will suggests trading it to Snyder for safe passage. Snyder instead asks to go with them, unsure he can live as a collaborator. They waylay Snyder's security detail but, at the gateway, the shift sergeant is suspicious and is about to search the gauntlet container. Will reveals himself and a standoff ensues, Will telling them the truth about the evacuation, which is confirmed by Snyder. They are let through and see ships descend; Snyder quietly activates an electronic device. Broussard remains in the bloc. Maddie is turned away at the Greatest Day temple she founded and taken to an evacuation center, her fate unclear. |

The Bowmans and Snyder have been living in a log cabin for six months. A huge unrecognized damaged spaceship flies overhead followed by drones. Will and Snyder go to a lookout point to see the ship. A battle ensues, with drones attacking the ship. Will speculates that the RAPs are at war and the opposing side is a possible ally. Katie and Bram retrieve the hidden gauntlet. Will and Snyder encounter a group of Greyhats readying to attack the cabin. Snyder runs to the cabin to warn the family and leads the two younger kids away. At the rendezvous point, Snyder says he is going back to help Will and Katie, but meets with the leader of the Greyhats. Snyder is told to only activate his beacon when he has located the Resistance. Will and Katie encounter a drone, which leaves without attacking them. They peer inside a damaged escape pod from the spaceship, spying the remains of an unknown lifeform. When Snyder returns, Will is suspicious. Bram makes contact with a woman on the radio. Bram says who they are and that they have the gauntlet. She gives them a location and time to meet. | |||||||

The Bowmans and Snyder are put on a cargo train by the woman on the radio. They are met by Vincent from the Resistance. On the way to the camp, Vincent tells the Bowmans that the camp can sometimes be political and, upon arrival, they find out Vincent disobeyed orders to meet them. They give the gauntlet to the camp's leader. In LA, Broussard is running an underground railroad to bring LA survivors to the San Fernando bloc. One night after delivering a woman and her son to San Fernando, Broussard is working out of the old police station, piecing together shredded documents left behind by the occupation, when a woman arrives. It turns out she is the dispatcher, Amy, he has been talking to as part of his railroad work. She tells him her team was ambushed. Working together on the document puzzles, they find out that LA is going to be turned into a bioweapon. They decide to leave LA to find the Resistance camp. | |||||||

Eric and Amy, once a neurologist from the San Fernando bloc, travel outside the wall and encounter travelers. Together, they mount a raid on medical supplies guarded by Walkers, which goes badly. Eric and Amy travel in the Central Valley and encounter a glowing alien base. They decide to head for the coast, to San Francisco. In the camp, MacGregor demands that the Bowmans reveal all they know, but is unforthcoming himself. The adults are put to work in different tasks. At night, a powerful noise disturbs the camp, resulting from the gauntlet being re-attached to the captured RAP, a machine. The RAP mimics the Bowmans' speech and starts to answer questions. It claims the RAPs are fleeing an enemy force that promise total annihilation for the human race and that the base being built on the moon with human labor is a defence against the RAPs' enemy. | |||||||

There has been a jump forward in time. The family has been accepted into Seattle as refugees under the name Dalton, although the authorities know they are the Bowman family. Will is working as a taxi driver while moonlighting as a private investigator. Kate is working as an advocate for refugees coming to Seattle and wants to have a life there. Will does not, because he knows that, beneath their apparently normal life, Seattle is just another colony, albeit with fewer restrictions. Their marriage is under strain following Charlie's death and their children think a divorce is highly possible. Bram is trying to find other accommodation because he wants to move out and have a base to protect Grace if that happens. At the end of the episode, Broussard turns up in Will's cab, wanting to compare notes. | |||||||

Snyder comes to Seattle on behalf of the IGA to see how and why Kynes is running the city so well. He is spotted by Will, who breaks off an operation with Broussard in order to follow him. Will intends to kill Snyder and enlists Bram to help him. Snyder is separated from his security guards, isolated, and brutally interrogated. However, he knows Will is a decent man and he manages to play on this to avoid being executed. When Snyder is released, he pretends that nothing untoward has occurred because he dares not show any weakness to Kynes. | |||||||

The Hosts' alien enemies attack Earth and wipe out all the IGA personnel in Davos, including Helena Goldwyn. In Seattle, Will is captured and brought to Proxy Snyder, who tells him that the Hosts are demanding Seattle fulfils its quota of 150 Outliers to go on the front line in space, otherwise the Hosts will not defend Seattle. Will is uncooperative but is released anyway to pass on the message to the Resistance. Will and Kate are still estranged, but their last conversation is amicable. In the absence of Kynes, Broussard takes charge of the Outliers he has gathered. Will is the first volunteer to join the 150. Kynes regains consciousness and gives the location of a fortified facility with huge supplies of weapons and food. All the other Outliers in Seattle gather there to prepare for a siege. Kate tries to find out from Bram where he and Grace are now living, but he refuses to tell her and even makes a veiled threat against her. Will and the others are sealed into pods to go into space and, their sacrifice paid, as the Seattle shield projected from the wall holds against the alien bombardment, a second strike lands outside the wall as Kate watches the approaching shockwave. |
