Talk Colony Podcast discusses Colony episode 3.03 ‘Sierra Maestra” and gives the Click a name.

We have a guest host this week. Mike Caputo from Pop Culture Review and So Many Shows joins Tracey to dissect Colony episode 3.03.
Episode 3.03 follows the stories of the Bowmans and Uncle Alan settling in at “Resistance Camp” as well as Broussard and Amy’s journey north.
Tracey and Mike talk about the game changers in the episode as well as new mysteries that are unveiled. We walk through the episode in recap fashion and then hit our usual segments.

  • Who “owned” the episode?
  • Biggest Reveal
  • Josh Holloway hair flip ratings

We add a new segment this week – “Best Line” of the episode. Surely, Snyder’s name comes up in this category!
Also, Mike is not a big fan calling the RAP a Click, so he decides to call it “Skippy” instead. It has a nice ring to it, don’t you think? Or, maybe I should say a nice high frequency shriek!
Be sure to check out our outgoing music from Moon on iTunes.  We treat you to a sample of their song “I Got A Fever” which was featured in Season 1 Episode 5 of Colony.

Talk Colony Podcast dissects Colony episode 3.02 and gets some “Buzz from the Bloc” from Tory Kittles who plays Broussard.

It’s time to talk about season 3 episode 2 of Colony on the Talk Colony Podcast. Eric Broussard is literally trying to put the pieces back together after the Rendition of the Los Angeles Bloc. He makes some new friends along the way and uncovers some disturbing information.
Helena learns that the Factory is no more and Snyder plays uncle to the Bowman kids. The Bowmans take a cereal train ride to the Resistance camp.
Tracey and Jay comment on the storylines and raise some interesting questions. The co-hosts also tackle the usual podcast segments:

  • Who “owned” the episode?
  • Biggest Reveal
  • Josh Holloway hair flip ratings

And, finally, we get the “buzz” that Jay has been waiting for – great scoop straight from our hero, actor Tory Kittles.
Be sure to check out our outgoing music from Moon on iTunes.  We treat you to a sample of their song “I Got A Fever” which was featured in Season 1 Episode 5 of Colony.

Talk Colony Podcast #34: Discuss S3E1 'Maquis'

Tracey and Jay are back for the Talk Colony Podcast. Colony season 3 is off to an adventurous start!

Colony season 3 brings a new backdrop for the Bowman family. They have also gained new member of the household. Alan Snyder has remained with the Bowmans for six months now after helping them escape the Los Angeles Bloc at the end of season 2.
Tracey and Jay get right down to the business of evaluating the new living situation for the Bowman family. Both agree that life in the woods looks good on the Bowmans, but maybe not so much for Snyder.
The co-hosts compare their take on the “call” Snyder makes in the premiere episode of season 3. Is it a betrayal or an act of heroism? Or somewhere in between?
They also take a look at Bram’s solo decision to make contact with (hopefully) a Resistance member via radio.
The usual segments are covered:

  • Who “owned” the episode?
  • Biggest Reveal
  • Josh Holloway hair flip ratings

We learn that there is some great Buzz from the Bloc in store for the next episode of the podcast. Get ready!
Finally, be sure to check out our outgoing music from Moon on iTunes.  We treat you to a sample of their song “I Got A Fever” which was featured in Season 1 Episode 5 of Colony.

'Colony' challenges us to help Bram

Colony has thrown down the gauntlet (see what I did there?). That’s right, challenges are in store for fans of Colony.

Check out this tweet from USA Network’s Colony account:


We need to keep our eyes peeled and ears open for challenges from Colony’s social media accounts on April 10th. Twitter has alerted all Colonists to assist Bram with “The Lost Transmissions”. (And believe me, it does not escape me that the word “Lost” is a part of this challenge coming from a show co-created by Carlton Cuse!)
The announcement is reminiscent of the games and tasks issued by Colony in season one. Who remembers Proxy Snyder’s broadcasts and building your dossier file?
Make sure you are following Colony on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter so you do not miss a single directive from the team.
Collaborators, Resistance, and everyone in between – join in for the fun!
 

Colony season 3 – Let's do this!

It is almost time for Colony to return to USA Network for season 3.

Yes, it was tough waiting for a premiere date, especially after we had become accustomed to the season beginning in January. But it’s coming on May 2nd!
The footage from the trailer has me very intrigued about seeing the story play out, at least in part, outside the confines of a city. The Bowmans are in the woods! And if you watch closely, you will see Snyder with them donning his best lumberjack gear.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BgovCg7jXoW/?hl=en&taken-by=colonyusa
Will’s hair is shorter. Oh my gosh, how will we cope without the hair flips?  I’m just hoping he still needs to toss his bangs out of his eyes now and then. Snyder’s hair is a tad longer though and he’s sporting a beard.
Is it hard to see Snyder without the sleek suit and perfectly groomed hair? I kind of wonder if he keeps a table set up inside a tent with a chalice and full place setting even though they are “roughing it”! You can take the Snyder out of the city, but can you take the city out of Snyder? I have a feeling we will get some great “fish out of water” moments.
I would encourage you to take time to check out the videos of the Colony set visits that Amy Vorpahl makes on behalf of Nerdist.com. Hysterical! It doesn’t matter if you are #TeamSnyder or #TeamBroussard. Each have their moments to shine. (Okay, maybe Tory has an edge on Peter in the videos, wink wink!)
Here is Part 1. You can find more on the Nerdist website.

I never tire of the smack talk between Tory Kittles and Peter Jacobson. In fact, I’d like to think I have facilitated (or is it instigated?) that banter historically!
Speaking of #TeamSnyder and #TeamBroussard, be sure to check out Wendy’s shirt designs at ColonyIvasion.com. You’ll never guess which one I chose! Okay, maybe you will. With all my fan love for Broussard, the show would never be complete without Snyder. I need my Snyder too!
And how about Wayne Brady joining the cast? Check out Melissa’s article on So Many Shows for highlights from Wayne and more.

Sarah Wayne Callies makes her directorial debut this season. And it looks like her character gets an up close look at a fallen alien aircraft.
Get ready for more Talk Colony Podcast! Jay and I will be back to break down each episode and bring you lots of fun coverage for Colony! Be sure to let us know what you are most excited about for the new season!
And, remember RAPs are (random alien) people, too! I look forward to enjoying the new season with you all!
 

Talk Colony Podcast #33: Interview with Sgt. Holman actor, Jamison Haase

We are so excited to be back for another episode of the Talk Colony Podcast, especially since we get to bring you a fun-filled, insightful interview with Jamison Haase.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BSxcUaYDGZR/?taken-by=jamisonhaase
Jamison played Sgt. Holman in the very pivotal scene in the finale of Colony season 2. Holman makes the brave decision to allow the Bowman family and Alan Snyder to leave the Los Angeles Bloc. Of course, then we encounter Snyder pressing that pesky button! But I digress!
Sit back, tune in, and enjoy a truly delightful conversation with Jamison Haase. And don’t miss our special fan guest that pops up to talk to Jamison.

Talk Colony Podcast #31: Discuss season 2 finale "Ronin"

Talk Colony Podcast #31 brings you an impassioned discussion of the Colony season 2 finale titled “Ronin”.
Tracey and Jay are joined by Carter this week! Welcome back Carter! (Who is old enough to think that sounds funny? Think 1970s television.)
We also have some awesome “Buzz From The Bloc” from Alex Neustaedter about Bram.
Of course, we cover our usual segments:

  • Who owned the episode?
  • Biggest Reveal
  • Josh Holloway Hair Flip ratings

And if you did not get enough laughs during the aforementioned portions of the podcast, don’t miss Jay turning the tables on Carter and me. He has us play the game we usually ask our interview guests to play. Join us and play along!
This is most certainly not goodbye until season 3. We have some ideas for Talk Colony to keep podcasting at least once a month to bring you some extra special episodes while we wait for the next installment of Colony! Please let us know of any suggestions you have for episodes you might enjoy — character-centric episodes, interviews, trivia, “best of” episodes, etc.
Finally, be sure to check out our outgoing music from Moon on iTunes.  We treat you to a sample of their song “I Got A Fever” which was featured in Season 1 Episode 5 of Colony.

Talk Colony Podcast #30: Interview with Ally Walker

Tracey and Jay interview the amazing Ally Walker who plays one of the most powerful and strategic players in the Los Angeles Colony — Governor General Helena Goldwin.
Ally gives us some great background on Helena and even sheds some light on Helena’s interesting relationship with Alan Snyder. Just what is going on there?? She answered this question and more!

  • Does Helena have physical combat skills?
  • What was Helena doing before the Occupation?
  • How did Ally hear about the exciting news of Colony‘s renewal for Season 3?

Full-on hilarity ensues when Ally plays “Proxy vs. Proxy” where she has to choose either Snyder or Alcala for a bunch of crazy hypothetical scenarios.  You do not want to miss this!
