Watching Colony



Watching Colony

I started watching the Colony TV Series yesterday, ironically a day after Donald Trump announced the presidential executive orders to build his infamous “Border Wall”, and I say ironically because in Colony there is also an impressive wall, a wall to contain Los Angeles population during a mysterious military occupation, Josh Holloway, Sawyer from the Lost TV series is back as the main character, not as magnetic as his Lost character, and Peter Jacobson, Dr. Chris Taub from House MD, Jacobson´s performance is electrifying at times, growing a lot from his house days.

Colony main attraction to me, is its portrayal of a dystopian future, a wall that ironically on Trump´s age, I guess is California governor Jerry Brown the one who would like to build a wall to keep California progressive nature away from Trump´s authoritarian nature, another high point in this TV Series is the return of the great Movie and TV director, Argentinean Juan José Campanella, an astonishing director behind the monumental The Secret in Their Eyes and some of the best chapters in House MD, making Colony an even more mind blowing experience, another great TV Series that runs the risk of being surpassed by reality in the age of Trump, it´s not as enigmatic as Lost, but I highly recommend it
