Continuum - Coming to Showcase May 27



When a group of fanatical terrorists escapes their planned execution in the year 2077, they vault back in time to the year 2012, sweeping dedicated CPS Protector, Kiera Cameron (Rachel Nichols), along with them. Stuck in the past and unable to get back to her husband and son, Kiera concentrates on bringing down the terrorists before they can wreak havoc in our present. Kiera receives unexpected assistance from a teen tech genius Alec Sadler (Erik Knudson). Impersonating a member of local law enforcement, Kiera also forms an uneasy alliance with her detective partner Carlos Fonnegra (Victor Webster).

Well i have to say this was an excellent pilot because it was rather great to watch i like how quickly they got on with it. The main actress did a great performance at looking confused and i liked how she was able to use the technology she had to her advantage and i really hope this series lasted. The only thing i didn't like was that she had a son i understand the reason why they did this so she has a reason to go back 2077 but let's face it the technology to time travel only exist in her time not 2012.

This show has great potential and i have high hopes for this

Well i had feeling the experiment wouldn't work but having the piece missing should be interesting. The way she managed to create a section 6 profile was rather impressive with the help she receiving but the fact that computer tech is tracing the signal means he's going get caught he's only one with her secret.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 6-8-2012 12:41     Subject: 1x01 A Stitch in Time

Nice introductory episode and the technology from 2077 was impressive but the fact she contacted Alec who was the brains behind some of her tech and the fact that she is using the tech that 65 years old is a little bizarre, I half expected Alec to ring when he was holding the phone to call her supervisor
Author: codebreaker    Time: 6-8-2012 13:30     Subject: 1x02 Fast Times

I think it was obvious the plan to attempt to get back to 2077 wouldn't work as it's only the second episode

Well at least she meet the person that giving her information but the ending was nice way to end the episode but i am slowly getting less interested in this series by each episode it had fantastic hook but it's not living upto the excitement that i was expecting from a sci-fi show. The last 2 episode are rather average .

Well seeing the actress that played  rosie larson on this series was amusing and she really was great character not the way she remembered her grandmother but it certainly opened her eyes but having other guy grandmother shot was sad but he's still alive which is odd so they need explain it in the series.

Author: bala    Time: 7-16-2012 06:44     Subject: The Politics of Time

Well finding out Kara husband cheating on her the night before her wedding must of hurt but trusting him and this lead to interesting conversation about she access to technology that spy on him but she trusted him. It certainly will make cheating difficult if you can use it spy on anyone at any time. It seem Kara really respect technology but the way she able solve the case by using the tech is amusing. Using that spray certainly is impressive how much tech did she bring with her?.

As for case we knew carlos didn't kill her but things just got difficult because the politician backers are liberate   .

Ok, neither of you seemed to foucus on this or if you did I may have missed it.

But do you believe that them going back in time was already a part of the existing timeline... examples of this was that Alec of the future seemed to be not suprised of the events unfolding in front of him as the device was activated and they were sent back to the past.

Also when she meets Alec in the future for the first time he says this is long over due, in other words he knew he was going to meet her, and he has been waiting for it to happen (*again).

I believe that this story is going to have no ripple affect on the future, except that when kierra does return to the future she will be fighting against the corporations, she already was learning that perhaps the needs of the people were not coming first (the food not being distributed), I believe she is the hero, but was trained to beileve that the corporations were the good, and Liber8 was evil. The methods of some of its members may be questionable at best, but their cause is truly for the people. I think we will see them get back to the future, and perhaps in another season have to change something in another time period.

I love this series so far, and am sad to see it is a 10 episode first season......but then again I also am waiitng for Alphas to return

Carlos should of come clean about sleeping with the victim because it just makes him look guilty but going after him in the shower was a little crazy especially using a tazer with water around

Alec Sadler (2077) must of been the one who changed the shift so Kiera was in the chamber when the timed jumped happened but from the look on her husbands face he might of also known and that is why he wanted her out of there

Well what an interesting plan to brainwash people into killing people but you just knew when Kara put out that VR helmet it was going to mess with her abilities but Carlos getting beaten up several times when Kara was brainwashed was rather amusing to see since he really did try but that must of hurt his ego getting beaten up by her so many times ?.

Kiera telling the guy to run when he didn't see her take the three of them down was amusing and Travis having what looked like an internal defibrillator was impressive as he was about to be called dead, the frame job job on the killing was impressive

You just knew Travis prison transfer was going to be a bad move but having 2 faction fight over him certainly made his escape much easier. It was a ok episode but i just wanted more and Kellogg trying to get Alec to join his company is certainly interesting.

This episode left me feeling like there should have been more.  Moving Travis was unecessary and rather Stupid.  They put 3 people on him.  Only ONE in the truck and he was chained?  Really Rachel, you should have told them to go heavy on the retraints.

The serial killer case was a nice distraction only provide Carlos a way to find out Kara secret .

I thought it was future Alec who changed his own time line since we found out he knew they had a time travel device used Kara to help him?.

This is going lead to very confusing conversation but from what i understood from this week episode was that future alec in Kara time line knew that he made mistakes in his life and he used criminal time travel device to change his past for better future right ? That was his justification for sending kara back in time.
