Colony Out On US DVD On Tuesday

colony_season_1_dvd_artwork_003A quick reminder to close out the weekend.

On Tuesday (12th July 2016) the first season of the USA Network TV series Colony will be released on DVD in America.

It is available here on the Amazon US website.  When I first wrote about this the price was set (possibly as a place holder) at $24.  It has now dropped to below $20.

Also, on that page there has been additional information about the contents of the discs.  Obviously it has the all 10 episodes (Kathryn was in three: 4, 7 & 9) but now there is a description in the ‘Special Features’ section.  It says:

Disc 1 – Colony Season One:

Deleted Scenes

Disc 3 – Colony Season One:

Zero Day Deleted Scenes

Colony: Behind The Wall

Colony: Behind The Wall is likely to be one of the documentary pieces put out by the USA Network during the run-up to the broadcasting of the show.  I don’t believe Kathryn appeared in any of those.  The deleted scenes, especially from the ‘Zero Day’ episode, could be of interest though.  Released publicity shots did show Kathryn in a scene that did not feature in the show as we’ve seen it so far.

Tomorrow we’ll continue KM UK’s Summer Of HD 2016 with a set of new screencaps of Kathryn in the aforementioned ‘Zero Day’.  It looks like the end for Charlotte but with sci-fi you never know.

Colony S01E07 – Broussard Full HD Screencaps

Colony_S01E07_1080p_003The word ‘Independence’ has been a word much banded about in the last few weeks in the UK.  Whether it be related to our relationship with mainland Europe or the release of a much delayed sequel to a well known sci-fi action movie.  In both cases a person taking a lead role bowed out before the follow-up!

Today an ex-colony of the British Empire celebrates its independence from the mother country.  Happy 4th of July to all our friends on the other side of ‘the pond’.

Here on KM UK we are marking the forthcoming release of the appropriately named USA Network TV series Colony on DVD  later this month.  And we do that in the best we know with a Summer Of HD update bringing you a new set of full HD images of Kathryn in her role of Charlotte, an art curator and wife of a politician.

Talking of independence day:  if the show continues we may eventually get to see an ID4-style re-taking of the streets from their new alien overlords.

From the 7th episode, Broussard (named after a significant character in the show), we have 41 new Full HD (1080p) screencaps now in the Gallery.

Colony S01E04 – Blind Spot Full HD Screencaps

Colony_S01E04_004In a few weeks the sci-fi-ish drama-ish series Colony will be released on DVD over there in that America. To mark the occasion KM UK is going to publish a series of exclusive-to-the-site (because I made them) full HD (that’s 1920×1080) screencaps in one of our Summer Of HD update series.

When was the last time we had a proper Summer Of HD update? I’d like to say “I can’t remember” but I can because I just looked it up and my short term memory is not that bad!

2015… I mean 2014 was when it was.

Based on the image above I think that when Hollywood attempts a re-make of the upcoming Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie (due out in the UK on Friday, 1st July) they need look no further than Kathryn as a younger, even more attractive Patsy.

A search on IMDb suggests that a remake of the TV series was already attempted in the US but it never made it past the pilot stage. Coincidently it starred a Kathryn, Kathryn Hahn of Crossing Jordan fame, but in the Edina (aka Eddie) role as played by Jennifer Saunders.  America gets the new film towards the end of July by the way.

The cast list of Ab Fab: T’Movie is quite something, with all walks of British celebrity-dom covered, which means that many of the cameos will go over the heads of those outside the UK.  Gwendoline Christie (Game Of Thrones), Rebel Wilson (Pitch Perfect), and Jon Hamm (Mad Men) will be recognisable to many others around the world though.  But, most importantly, the amazing Jane Horrocks reprises her role as the utterly barmy (it’s a good thing, trust me) Bubble.

First up in our short run are 55 new Full HD (1080p) screencaps of Kathryn in the fourth episode of Colony. Find them in the Gallery.

Colony On DVD In July

colony_season_1_dvd_artwork_003There is something deeply unsettling about the idea of a faceless entity arbitrarily dividing the human race up for unknown reasons.

Are you in area 2?  Do those in area 1 seem to have it much better?

But that’s enough about DVD region codes…

July 12th, 2016 sees the first season DVD release of the TV series Colony.  In America that is.  It is on the country’s local Amazon website here.  The price at present is $24.

The USA Network’s 10 episode sci-fi-ish show will be in a three disc box set.  Along with a behind-the-scenes documentary, that was aired before the first episode went out, there is said to be some deleted scenes.

Publicity photos of Kathryn in the show included shots from scenes we’ve not seen.  Could they be part of the extras?

Colony is set in a modern day earth that is under the control of aliens.  The world’s defences have been disabled and what is left of humankind has been allowed to remain living in walled-off ‘blocks’ of major urban centres like Los Angeles.  Josh Holloway (Lost) and Sarah Wayne Callies (The Walking Dead) are a husband and wife that find themselves on opposite sides of collaborate/resist divide.  He’s a works as an agent for the security services keeping the peace for the ‘hosts’.  She’s trying to help the fight-back against the oppressive regime.  Both are doing so for the sake of their family.

Kathryn guest stars in three episodes as an art curator in the more comfortably accommodated ‘green zone’.  She’s also the wife of Adrian Pasdar’s (Heroes) politician who has ambitions of moving up the power tree.

There are three images showing the DVD box art now in the Gallery.

Colony On UK Sky 1 From Thursday

colony_banner_2880x1260A couple of weeks ago the news broke that Colony would be coming to UK television screens on Sky 1 in early April.

That time has arrived and Colony is now on the schedules.

The series will be shown on the satellite channel from Thursday (7th of April) at 9pm, in between DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow and the beginning of the new season of the comedy panel show Duck Quacks Don’t Echo.  That’s a prime time slot on a major channel.

Josh Holloway (Lost) and Sarah Wayne Callies (The Walking Dead) lead the sci-fi drama series about a set in current day earth that has been invaded by aliens.  They have taken control and split the remaining human population into walled in ‘blocks’.  Colony follows the lives of the Bowman family (Josh and Sarah as parents to three children) and others in a section of Los Angeles.  Kathryn stars in three episodes as someone allowed to live in a more privileged area in return for collaborating with the ‘hosts’, in her case she is collecting works of art for them.
