Trivia

Bears a lot of resemblance to the video game series Half Life 2 (2005). There are never-seen alien overseers, with co-opted humans who act as an militaristic police force and proxy governers. A resistance in the oppressed population with sympathizers, as well as those who wish they wouldn't interfere. Furthermore there are large alien structures and walls that create blocs to section off populated areas, with drone machines that observe the civilian population and can inform on the authorities. As well, there are work camps, and prison complexes used as torture facilities. See more »

Outstanding Sci-Fi
1 September 2018 | by jarroddmarriott – See all my reviews

A very good show, well written with interesting characters. Seems strange a network would cancel this out of the blue with no story resolution, but renew all the other rubbish out there.

Here's hoping Amazon, Netflix or someone will pick it up. #SaveColony
