Kathryn’s In A Reverie – Update

Awoogah! Awoogah!

Actual news news!!!

The business known as show news website Deadline is reporting that Kathryn has signed up to take a role in a new NBC network pilot called Reverie.

Reverie is a vehicle for Sarah Shahi (Person Of Interest) and is centred around the topical idea of virtual reality software. Apparently the software is causing significant issues for users and Sarah’s Mara behavioural expert and ex-detective is brought in to investigate.

Kathryn’s role is as a Department Of Defense official called Monica Shaw. Not surprisingly the military are very interested in such technology, especially if it is having psychological effects on those that have experienced it. If it can be weaponised, they’ll do it.

At present this is just a pilot, an initial episode that is used to showcase the project to the network heads to make a decision of whether to turn it into a series. As such it is currently classified on IMDb as a TV movie. We saw the same with the Surgeon General show that Kathryn was involved in a few years ago. That one didn’t get past the pilot stage.

This early part of the year is very much ‘pilot season’. Projects have got through the selection process and a few are being put into production as a first episode test. Those lucky few that become series, likely to start broadcasting in the autumn, would start filming in the summer. The pilot could be shown as episode 1, or it could be re-worked/filmed if changes are made.

Dennis Haysbert (24), Jessica Lu (Awkward.), and Sendhil Ramamurthy (Heroes) have already joined the cast. Amblin Television, owned by Steven Spielberg who Kathryn worked with in A.I. and Minority Report, is producing the show created by Mickey Fisher (Extent).

More news on Reverie when we hear it.

Update (25 Feb 2017): Johnny Messner (Kathryn’s partner) has posted his congratulations to Kathryn in his own inimitable style on Instagram and Twitter. It goes thusly:

Congrats my honnneeee !!! You just took the whole show up 10000 notches !! You are by far one of the most talented actors I know and a even better momma !!! 😍😍😍😍 I love you for that – link

Colony On UK DVD Tomorrow

After the false start a couple of weeks ago it is looking at season one of the USA network sci-fi-ish drama series Colony might actually be hitting the shelves tomorrow (6th February 2017) here in the UK.

Any further delays and we may have to sending people to the factory. No green-zone for them!

The Amazon UK page for the disc is definitely showing the release date as tomorow and allowing pre-orders at time of writing. Be quick and choose the fastest/most expensive shipping option and you could have on the day.

Season two of Colony has reached the fourth episode in America and, very much as predicted, there has been no mention of Kathryn’s character Charlotte. Press releases and promo images for upcoming episodes have given us no suggestion that that will change. Charlotte’s husband (Adrian Pasdar) is shacked up with the woman (the lead character’s sister-in-law) she introduced him to in season one. We have been getting more insight into the labour camps though.

It should be noted that in a flashback to the initial invasion, the construction of the wall around the Los Angeles ‘block’ the Bowman family (Josh Holloway, Sarah Wayne Callies plus kids) live in was shown. It was a very quick process of dropping large pre-assembled segments into place. I would imagine that the realities of sealing an even longer border with such an erection may be a little more difficult and time consuming. But it is fiction after all.

Colony On UK DVD Tomorrow? Maybe Not

I was going to start this post by saying it could very well be my last post involving the sci-fi-ish drama series Colony.

Kathryn is not likely to be in the second series, which started in the US last week. The season one DVD is out in America already and the show is available via streaming services.

That being said, the DVD release of the show in Great Britain marks the end of the saga for us on KM UK.

However… it is looking like the scheduling gods have other ideas.

Tomorrow, the 16th of January 2017, was due to see the UK season one DVD release. The Amazon page for the product has changed to ‘Currently unavailable’, which initially I took as meaning out of stock due to too many pre-orders. The release date is still shown as the 16th. Some other sites have the date down as the 6th of February. I’ve found one that has the discs down for release on both dates. Go figure!

So… Colony will probably not be available to purchase on DVD from tomorrow. Thanks for reading

Kathryn Colony S1 Promo Photos Update

Is it too late to say ‘Happy New Year’? The 8th of January feels like it is pushing it a bit. Oh well. Happy Sunday.

Season 2 of the sci-fi-ish TV series Colony from the American USA Network is starting on Thursday (12 Jan 2017).

The year two run is expected to last 13 episodes, three more than number one.

We were dropped right in to the heart of the alien take over last season. A lot had happened already with few details given to the audience. It was likely done that way so the show hit the ground running and to give the viewers a sense of the confusing and tense situation in which the protagonists found themselves. The upcoming first new episode is said to contain a lot of flashbacks to the time in the run-up to the alien take-over. Some of those ‘how did this happen?’ questions should be answered.

We last saw Kathryn’s Charlotte Burgess being taken away by the security services for disobeying the new masters. Sadly, we probably have to assume that that is the final time we will ever see her. But you never know in sci-fi shows, especially with flashbacks involved. Charlotte’s husband Nolan (Adrian Pasdar, Heroes) is certainly still involved in the political world and now has a new lady at his side in the form of Amanda Righetti’s (The Mentalist) Maddie. Charlotte used Maddie for her own nefarious ends but met a sticky one herself. Perhaps Charlotte underwent a similar experience climbing the greasy pole and continued the cycle of abuse.

To mark the new season starting I’ve added some newly upgraded promo photos from episodes past. The three new replacements are all shown above. The main image is now huuuuuuge. That means I have to apologise for the gratuitous bit of nudity on display. We’ll just call it art

You can see them, along with many more images of Kathryn from Colony, in the KM UK Gallery.

Netflix & Thrill(er) – Colonisation Comes Early

Waaaaaay back in March (remember then? happy times) in amongst news of Colony season one coming to the UK via Sky there was mention of Netflix acquiring the global rights.

At the time the streaming network was said to be making the sci-fi-ish drama series available to all subscribers early in 2017.

Well, Xmas has come early to sci-fi fans paying [insert correct amount here in local currency] per month to watch Netflix’s bought-in and original shows. Colony series one will be released on Tuesday (13th Dec 2016).

Kathryn guest stars in four episodes across the season, starting with number three. She plays a wealthy art collector helping the invading aliens gather paintings from across Los Angeles. As Charlotte she is also the wife of a political figure (Adrian Pasdar).

Season two of Colony is due to start in one month from tomorrow, with the first episode due to hit the USA Network on the 12th of January, as reported here last month.
