So, continuing on!

So that ends Episode 2. Next time, I'll write up Ep 3 :)

And now we're onto the next episode: "Fast Times". Incidentally, the pilot is also named "A Stitch in Time". I spot a certain theme in the titles... ;-)

And we have our first set of Opening Credits!:

2077. My time, my city, my family. When terrorists killed thousands of innocents, they were condemned to die. They had other plans.

A time travel device sent us all back 65 years. I want to get home, but I can't be sure what I will return to if history is changed. Their plan: to corrupt and control the present in order to win the future. What they didn't plan on was me.


What you can see here is that while the show wants us to sympathize with the focus-character protagonist, Officer Kiera Cameron, militating against it is based on what we see, it seems like there are injustices in Kiera's world she is not prepared to confront because her job depends/ed on preserving the 2077 status quo. That, and Liber8's tactics are plain not acceptable.

I'll stop here, since the next "arc" of the episode begins here and I'll want to do that as Part 2.

[ A note about the Youtube clips: I've stripped the sound to cut the video file sizes down. If anyone really really really wants audio in the clips, I'll leave it in. ]

So we're back and watching Continuum, Season 1, Episode 1. :)

Next up, episode 2! :)

Also, because of the image-heavy exposition, I'm going to split this into two parts. The first will cover the episode up to the time travel incident, and the second will cover the episode from that incident to the end.

Now, let's begin! :-)

Next entry, we'll see what actually happened to everybody!

It was the aftermath - when the characters are time-displaced and how they react to it - that really "sold" me on this series. So hopefully you'll stay tuned for part 2. :)

Yeah, I said I was gonna do TTGL but eh.

I discussed this a little bit over on my JF account but I want to do the writeups here as I like the DW presentation format in my theme a little better.

I basically ended up mainlining this series over about 2-3 days and I was not disappointed, even though the first season only had a 10-episode run.

Obviously, spoilers will abound as I go, so I'll be using cuts for text and things.

So with that, on to my next DW post, in which I will discuss the pilot. :)
