Continuum a “promising sci-fi cop caper”

From Bill Brioux at TV Feeds My Family:

  • PREMIERE: promising sci-fi cop caper Continuum
    What if in the future the bad guys were really the good guys?
    That’s just one of the themes explored in Continuum, a slick, smart trip back to the future. The shot-in-Vancouver sci-fi cop show premiering Sunday, May 27 at 9 p.m. on Showcase. Read more.
  • Continuum the pitch that stuck for Simon Barry
    Continuum, the new Showcase drama which premieres tonight, starts off in the near future–the year 2077. When I met creator/executive producer Simon Barry in March on the Vancouver set of the series, however, we wound up talking more about the past. Specifically, the many series he tried to get off the ground before hitting pay dirt with Continuum. “I’ve written many un-produced pilots,” says Barry. “I’ve been trying for ten years now to get a show on the air in terms of developing and selling ideas. So this feels like a ten year overnight success.” Read more.

Continuum’s time-travel twist

From Brent Furdyk of Shaw Connect:

  • Review: ‘Continuum’ delivers cop-show action with a time-travel twist
    If three Back to the Future movies and countless episodes of Star Trek have taught us anything, it’s that time travel comes with unforeseen consequences. Although this particular sci-fi truism is one of the undercurrents of Continuum, a slick new Canadian-made sci-fi series that begins in the future but takes place in the present, it escapes the trap of getting too bogged down with the paradoxical predicaments that come from altering timelines.
