So… Colony…

Colony_S01E02_promo_004Anything you’d like to tell us?

Sadly, it turns out that the promo video for the second episode of Colony, which was released last week after the first episode got its first network airing (it had been released online a few weeks previously), was somewhat misleading.

Around half of the footage in the minute long montage was not even in the episode in question.  Clearly they were clips from future shows.  Not happy!

This meant that Kathryn was not in last nights Brave New World episode.  Very not happy!

Could it have been propaganda released by a powerful, yet faceless, entity to control the masses?  Are they using trusted sources to legitimise their actions?  Hey, wait a minute…

We did get to see Kathleen Rose Perkins (who was great in the US/UK comedy Episodes) and Kathy Baker (Picket Fences).  That Kathy is really a Katherine.  So they did try and make up for the deficiency.  Sort of.

Information I’ve been able to find suggests that we might first see Kathryn’s Charlotte (not a euphemism) in episode 4, which is titled Blind Spot.  Salt at the ready!

However, with what we saw in the clip and some of the happenings in episode two it does give me a few ideas as to some future plot points around Kathryn’s character.  I’ll let you speculate on what they could  be.

Early Morning Providence

Providence_S02E01_076The year has started well for Kathryn fans in the UK.

In the first couple of days we had showings of the film Inferno.

Cold Case is getting daily screenings available to everyone with a TV, and not just those with a satellite dish attached to it.

This run of luck is set to continue but you’ll need to stay up very late or be up very, very early (or set the PVR) to see it.

The TV series Providence is currently being broadcast in back-to-back pairs starting at 1am on the Movie Mix channel.  Friday (22nd of Jan) morning (or Thursday night if you prefer) the final episode of season one is up first.  That can only mean one thing.  The second of the double dose is the first episode of season two.  2am OK with you?

Going under the title of The Third Thing Kathryn guest stars Molly, a disturbed young woman struggling to deal with the loss of a child.  The staff at the Rhode Island clinic run by Dr Sydney Hansen (Melina Kanakaredes of CSI: NY) find themselves in a hostage situation when Molly pulls a gun.

Providence ran for five seasons from 1999 to 2002 on the NBC network in the USA.

I’ve looked at this episode of Providence almost 6 years ago on KM UK here.  Screencaps can be found in the Gallery.

Kathryn Is In Colony Next Week!

Colony_S01E02_promo_004I really did not expect this to happen so soon!  I was sure we’d be hanging on until at least the 5th episode!

The “next week on…” promo video shown after last Thursday’s première of the new USA Network sci-fi-ish drama series Colony included a couple of brief glimpses of Kathryn!  If this is correct we will see her in episode two.

And when I say ‘brief’ a) I mean really, really brief; and b) instead of ‘brief glimpses’ maybe I should have said ‘glimpse briefs’ 😉

Colony_S01E02_promoWith the second peek being what you see above (grrr!) and the Amanda Righetti (The Mentalist) scene shown just before it we can safely say Colony is turning up the sexy!  For those of us that not lusting after Josh Holloway (Lost) anyway  :-)

Over the video we hear Kathryn, as Charlotte, say “You work for me.  Do you understand?”  We can’t see who she is saying this to.

If you didn’t tune in last time then maybe you should reconsider for next week.

There is a copy of the episode 2 promo video and some 720p screencaps of Kathryn from it in the Gallery now.

Kathryn @ People’s Choice Awards 2010 Reprise

peoples_choice_awards_onstage_007Almost exactly a year a go I posted a sizeable update of photos of Kathryn at People’s Choice Awards in 2010.

peoples_choice_awards_onstage_006The additional photos then were focused on the red carpet side of the event.  The ‘before’ if you will.

Today we look at the ‘during’ with a smaller update involving the events on stage and backstage.

Sadly I’ve nothing from ‘after’  :-(

This event was a little unusual for a public appearance by Kathryn because her role in presenting two awards with Greg Grunberg (Alias) meant had advanced warning it would be happening.  I even posted about it a few weeks previously!  Go me!

peoples_choice_awards_backstage_001This year’s People’s Choice Awards; which covers film, television and music; took place last week.  I like to make these updates to old events timely.  Unlike the Oscars which can allow one film to dominate proceedings in the PCAs the categories largely prevent that.  Having said that Furious 7 (which not a prequel to The Hateful Eight regardless of what you might think!), The Big Bang Theory and Taylor Swift could between them be said to have won the major prizes between them.

The KM UK Gallery now has extra photos of Kathryn both on the Nokia Theatre stage and behind it in January of 2010.

Colonization Starts Next Week

colony_banner_2880x1260As it’s an American show I’ve gone with the US spelling of colonisation above, well it is an American city being colonized  :-)

The new USA Network sci-fi-ish drama series Colony is due to broadcast the first episode on Thursday of next week (the 14th of Jan).

For the past few months the  station has been releasing posters, teaser trailers, interviews with the key cast and crew, behind-the-scenes videos, Tweets galore and even the whole first episode as a preview.  Much has been said about the nature of the colonisation of LA.  Is it aliens?  Are other cities in the US or elsewhere across the world similarly walled in?  A likely ‘yes’ on both counts.  No doubt in the coming few days there’ll be a lot more.

One thing that we’ve not heard anything further about since the news broke last August of Kathryn’s recurring role as Charlotte is anything further about Kathryn’s recurring role.  Adrian Pasdar (Heroes), who is said to play a politician and is Charlotte’s husband, has gone equally unmentioned.  Their parts are not listed on the show’s Wikipedia page and have not come up in any of the publicity so far.  There have been no spoiler leaks on any of the major gossip sites either.

This lack of discussion could be a worrying sign of a significant change in the story lines or the production team have done a good job in keeping things locked down.  Perhaps the press have largely agreed to go along with the secrecy for the sake of the drama.  Who knows?

What we do know is that Colony starring Josh Holloway (Lost), Sarah Wayne Callies (The Walking Dead), Peter Jacobson (House), Amanda Righetti (The Mentalist) and Paul Guilfoyle (CSI) is just a week away.  There are ten episodes in the series.  Will you be watching?
