“I think whoever killed me is after the time-travel device.”
We return to the alternate timeline where Vancouver is the Canadian city with an embarrassing mayor, and a woman from the future must solve her own murder. We also learn more about Kiera’s past and the path that led her to become a Protector.
Continuum returned Sunday night (in Canada—it will be arriving onscreen elsewhere very soon). “Minute by Minute,” available to many of you in its entirety, here, answers questions from last season’s cliffhanger finale and, of course, gives the show another new direction. However, I’m confident the people making this show know what they’re doing. The characters, of course, may not have a clue.
This week’s Continuum takes us back to the the start of the series, the second season, and even Keira Cameron’s future force. The season ends with a jarring finale.
No review this week but, hopefully, a discussion (reviews will return next episode). The spectre of the “missing” Gardiner looms, as Vancouver experiences massive cyber-attacks, we learn much more about Theseus, a major Liber8 figure gets captured, and Emily takes some action… we’re just not certain what.
Some puppet-mastering forces a showdown between Travis Verta and Sonya Valentine, with the startling result….
If you participate, be warned: It’s impossible to discuss the episode without spoiling the plot.
Theseus takes the bull by the horns and addresses an Occupy Vancouver rally, future tech causes some difficulties, and some major characters find themselves in their enemies’ power.
BONUS: Learn why those cool brain implants may be a bad idea.
Continuum returns1 and drags viewers into a moral and temporal labyrinth.
A strong ep this week, but I’m busy, so we’re going to go with discussion only. Reviews will return next time.
“Second Degree” shows us judgments on two versions of Julian, information on rival conspiracies, and the unsolved theft of a grave. We see how Kiera Cameron and Carlos work together now that he knows her secrets, and we get to watch both Kiera and Alec’s new girlfriend (Magda Apanowicz) kick butt.
What did everyone think? And what labyrinthine path will lead Julian to become the feared Theseus?
Kiera and Alec become aware of another time-traveler, a fanboy thinks he has super-powers, and the confrontation with Liber8 heats up as Alec tries to live his own life.
A drugs-and-gangsters episode– but it works fairly well. This could mark a turning point for the series, for better or for worse.
Alliances begin to fracture and fragment in this week’s fast-paced episode.
