Colony

Genre: Sci-Fi

Description: An American science fiction drama television series created by Carlton Cuse and Ryan J. Condal, starring Josh Holloway and Sarah Wayne Callies. Set in a dystopian near-future Los Angeles, residents live under a regime of military occupation by an organization known as the Transitional Authority, which serves an extraterrestrial group referred to as the 'Hosts.' The series follows the Bowman family - former FBI agent Will Bowman and his wife Katie - as they navigate life in an occupied city divided by massive walls into blocs. When their son Charlie is separated from them during the alien invasion, Will is forced to work with the occupying forces while Katie secretly joins the Resistance. The show explores themes of collaboration versus resistance, family loyalty, and moral compromise in the face of an overwhelming alien threat. Conceived as a metaphor for France during Nazi occupation, Colony examines how ordinary people respond when faced with impossible choices between survival and freedom.
