Liking this season - going in good directions!
haven't seen Ed (aka Hugh Dillon) in anything other than Flashpoint so that's who he is to me hahaha
206 awesome episode. I knew that girl was working for liberate. I knew that from the first time she showed any interest.
Bringing in esher was well done, to be honest 10/10 for the writing and production.
Seems im the only one watching this from canadian broadcast :/ . Will watch it again when it goes to bluray in the off season. Hope it gets a third season at this rate.
just quick post just read off digital spy that a third season has been green lit, alongside a series commission of Battlestar Galactica exec Ron Moore's new drama Helix.
so we get a season 3 of continuum for next year.
Looks esher is one of the agents that the other guy, who might be alec's dad from the future (not sure how that works), but he said that there was other people frmo the future in that time and he called them agents. I am guessing but they went back to change the past to manipulate the future etc. That is why he is so rich and what appears powerful. Not sure on his agenda or how much he knows, they just cut the conversation short when kiera was talking to him. So don't know how much he knows and if he knows that alec will be rich, he seems to know a lot as he was obviously the guy that got to the new energy inventor that kellog was trying to invest with. I would say that he probably knows all about kiera and alec and is trying to manipulate the future to his advantage like the rest of the people.
I thought it was so dumb that kiera went down in to the basement, but i guess at the time it was fairly reasonable. But one thing i thought was the night vision on her CMR that was like a night vision from these days, i would have thought a night vision from 2077 would have improved significantly but first time ive seen something like that overlooked, but im probably just being ott. When she was trying to tell the partner cop guy that she was from the future, i was like, show him the gun and the tech... Then turns out end of ep he sees the gun and she tells all. :O glad in some ways that's out the way so they can now work together better etc.
yeah i found the whole her not showing him the suit or gun retarded as well. also thought it was dumb her chasing him into the basement, why not call for backup? even with all that tech doesn't give you an advantage on somebody else's home turf.
kellog seems to be taking things easy and partying, etc, rather than focusing on making money or a better future he could have easily made that guy sign up at the start by taking him to the lab, showing him around and then getting him signed up straight away but how was he to know a rival would appear? if it was me i would have wanted something that is going to be worth billions signed up straight away and wouldn't of let him out of my sight until the deal was done.
also it looks like this is one of those "looper" type shows, where it's a constant loop, as in kugami would never of went to prison if it wasn't for liberate yet he is the one who started/ran liberate, yet liberate are the ones who go into the past and make him go to prison in the first place. everything is in a loop, that is why he had to send kiera back as well as everyone else, to complete the loop.
show is lacking quality for me, but still worth a watch.
i just hope the ending isnt as obvious as i think it is going to be like the "looper" movie.
