You guys are going to have massive blue-balls by the end of this season. Show is too lame to have a redeeming twist sufficient enough to overshadow 8+ episodes of mediocrity.

Hard to believe this is the same network that really jumped in quality last year by airing Mr. Robot. When you look over the entire season, barely anything actually happened. The show just strings you along, feeling more like that's the result of them trying to fill time rather than any attempt at good story telling. You could substitute basically anything for the RAPs with how generic and mostly inconsequential they were to the overall plot. How much longer is Carlton Cuse going to be able to coast on the success of Lost before networks realize he's a shitty writer and showrunner whose only inkling of talent came from riding JJ Abrams' coattails?
This show would have gotten 100 times better if they just killed off Laurie. She is such a terrible actress.

Yup if you watch on demand they have a 5 minute thing at the end by the director and its like we set this person to be somebody you think is important and then just kill them off HA. Problem is pretty much the entire 1st season was a series of head fakes and I am not sure thats a viable strategy to keep an audience.

Gave up at episode 5, but I take it the season ended with zero answers?

They Lost'd the audience. Don't answer any fucking questions and just raise even more fucking questions so you forget about the original ones.

Yeah, but at least in Lost the questions were generally interesting enough that you could discuss and theorize about them. None of the questions Colony raises are really anything you can dig into because there's either so little information provided on them or they're just plain boring. The biggest question the show raises is who the RAP are, but like I said, they're mostly just background for an ongoing marital spat. A well-written show would've at least provided us with some sort of cliff-hanger or twist worth talking about, but instead we just get Will and his transit pass.

So season 2 is going at episode 4 at the moment and I'm still watching...for some reason. I guess it's semi decent sci-fi wannabe tv-show. Tbh it's not really going anywhere but maybe the new season will bring something new up to the table. Yeah this kind of shit is so weak after watching Taboo and Expanse.

This post will sound completely stupid but it is 100% the truth. I was interested in this show. Missed season 1. Missed S2E1 so set dvr and recorded 2,3,4. I've now 3 weeks in a row hit play on the DVR then went off to do something else. It hasn't caught my attention at all.

I still watch this because I'm an idiot. I love the setting and I find the potential story interesting. I find all the female characters to just be complete fucking shit and drag the show down. The whole premise that there could be any sort of secret insurgency when they show that they seem to have everyone under constant surveillance is retarded.
