The sci-fi drama Colony will be back for a second season, as announced by USA Network. Season one stars Josh Holloway (Lost), Sarah Wayne Callies (The Walking Dead) and Peter Jacobson (House), with Carlton Cuse and Ryan Condal executive producing.


Season one is currently airing on Thursday nights at 10pm ET/PT and has been averaging 3.4 million viewers.

“Carlton and Ryan have successfully delivered a story that tests the strengths and weaknesses of a society in duress, and the bonds of a family divided,” said Chris McCumber, President of USA Network. “Colony‘s performance across all platforms has been impressive, and we can’t wait to see where the story takes us.”

The Colony Plot:

Set in the very near future, Colony‘s world is a dangerous one of divided ideologies. While some choose to collaborate with the occupation and benefit from the new order, others rebel and suffer the consequences. After being separated from their son during the invasion, former FBI agent Will Bowman (Holloway) and his wife Katie (Callies) are willing to do whatever is necessary to be reunited with him. Thus, when the powerful Proxy Snyder (Jacobson) offers Will a chance to get his son back if he will collaborate with the occupational government, Will and Katie find themselves faced with the toughest decision of their lives. They will have to go beyond whatever they thought possible, risking their lives and their relationship to protect their family.
