Falling Skies revolves around the repercussions of an alien invasion and ran for five seasons on TNT. Now, USA is trying a different kind of alien takeover drama. How will Colony perform for USA Network? Will it last as long or longer? Cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
Colony takes place in the near-future, in a world where citizens are under military occupation by an organization known as the Colony Transitional Authority. It’s part of a large invading force of extraterrestrial origin. Former FBI agent Will Bowman (Josh Holloway) and his wife Katie (Sarah Wayne Callies) live in Los Angeles with their daughter and two sons. During the invasion, they’re separated from the younger boy and must risk everything to get him back. The rest of the USA Network cast includes Peter Jacobson, Amanda Righetti, Tory Kittles, Alex Neustaedter, and Isabella Crovetti-Cramp.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the Colony TV series? Do you think that it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Snooze fest, the synopsis is better then the viewing. Wake me up when something happens. The same with Falling Skies. it was a snooze fest as well.
I really like the show. I do think they need to show a little more about what happened. I hope it continues for a couple years. I hope it doesn’t do it lost did you lose it storyline.
What makes this show ineresting are the “unknowns” If everthing is known “immediately” from the beginning, it leaves litlle left for speculation. This is a series with great writing, and the acting is excellent. I for one, am glad they have been renewed for another season.
I think that this show is great ,and the acting is as well .i agree tho that we need to c some alien technology or a face or a glimpse of an alien soon very soon or ppl may lose hope ,im in for the long hall with this show how ever long it is on for its great so far .
Love this show and can’t wait till next episode. I’m so glad it’s renewed. Sarah Wayne Callies and Josh Holloway are two of my faves.
Personally I feel that it won’t last past 2 seasons unless they have an episode that flashes back to invasion day to show how the ETs blew through or defenses so quickly and just a quick look at an alien. Other than that this show is a water downed drama about corrupt government and police. There’s just not enough mystery. So far the tech I have seen we could have built ourselves. Big whoop…….
This TV show is awesome, acting is great and the story line is almost too realistic to believe- our future for sure whether be by aliens or big business controlling the world!
Live ratings is no longer a good measurement of success for a TV show, they should publish here the 7 day catch up period, which is more representative on whether people watch the show or not. Nowadays, very few people make an appointment with the TV set, they watch it when they want to, so a 7 day reading would be far more accurate.
It probably won’t make it to next season. When will they make a show that shows how the problem started. Not like this show and the walking dead use your wildest imagination: aliens/virus managed to shut our country down. And we didn’t fight/isolate
I’m enjoying The Colony. I like the cast and the writing, and I hope that it’s renewed.
I really enjoy this one!
The show needs to do over a .5 tonight. That may be difficult with all the Political stuff going on and a new Shades of Blue, but it really needs to get over a 0.5.
Still early to tell but so far so good. Can’t wait until they reveal how this all happened.
Personally, I thought it was a very compelling show. Lots of questions to be answered. Enough mysteries as to what is going on to keep me watching. I hope this one isn’t cancelled, but I have heard very little buzz about it. I guess it remains to be seen.
I watched the first episode last night … I am afraid this one’s NOT gonna make it, I’ve been wrong before. We’ll just have to wait and see … my opinion, thanks …
All was to slow, they can dump it.
