Telly’s Take
The second season of Colony premiered soft and so far, it seems the ratings haven’t picked up. Still, I’m not ready to sequester this show behind an alien-built wall, and wait for it to die off. It’s about the middle of the pack where this cable channel’s TV shows are concerned. I’m not sure how this will go.
4/4/2017 update: USA has renewed Colony for a third season.
3/21/2018 update: Colony, season three, will debut on Wednesday, May 2, 2018. Details here.

What do you think? Will USA Network renew the Colony TV show for a third season? How would you feel if it cancelled this sci-fi drama series, instead?
Great series!! Please renew.7
Hope they renew Colony. We really enjoy it.
Put it back on. Tired of usa cancelling shows.
I think colony is a really good show, hope season 3 returns! Think show needs to include they extraterrestrials, because so far drones ! Showing the aliens would probably bring more excitement and anticipation of the of real threat viewers have only been hearing about. To many times I’ve seen good shows get dumped before they have a chance to get an audience! Looking forward to season 3.
I sure hope they don’t cancel colony I love the show. It seems like I just find a show that I like maybe get one or two seasons out of it and then they turn around and cancel it on me I hope they won’t do that with colony.
Season 3 needs to happen…DO NOT CANCEL. This show is great!
COLONY was just renewed for a 3rd season, According to TVBTN. They didn’t make us wait forever. Definitely a good day.
This show is insanely good. Season 3 needs to happen.
Season 3 needs to happen! This show is insanely good.
I think it would be a great tragedy to cancell such an original and awesome tv show. Especially if it gets cancelled without closure for all of us Colony lovers out there. It would make me really angry, but most of all kust supet sad.
I absolutely LOVE this series and would be extremely disappointed with the network for denying me and all of its other fans from a cancellation of this awesome tv show!!
“Colony” SHOULD be Renewed!!! My husband and I love this fantastic Sci-Fi series! Please, please, please, do not cancel it!
Please don’t cancel Colony. Best sci-fi on right now. I love it!!!
I’m kinda embarassed to say I just discovered Colony this year & only ’cause I fell asleep during “Project Runway, Jr” & woke up to a really cool episode that held my attention & made me go back and binge watch from the start! (Yeah in Canada they’re on the same network, oddly Bravo! WTF? Can’t explain it, either!) Anyway, I’m completely addicted now & MUST know what’s gonna happen with the Rap & the Gauntlet … Oh, and like, the Bowman Family. lol
I hope Colony is renewed. It is my favorite show!
