In der von Konzernen beherrschten Zukunft sorgen CPS-Protektoren wie Kiera Cameron (Rachel Nichols, „Star Trek“, „Criminal Minds“) für Recht und Ordnung. Als die radikale Widerstandsgruppe Liber8 einen grausamen Anschlag auf die Konzernführer verübt, der tausenden Menschen das Leben kostet, werden die Drahtzieher gefasst und zum Tode verurteilt – doch dann geschieht das Unfassbare: Bei der Hinrichtung gelingt es ihnen, einen Zeitreisemechanismus zu aktivieren. Kiera versucht einzugreifen, gerät aber ebenfalls in den Strudel der Zeit und wird mit zurück ins Jahr 2012 gerissen. Gestrandet in einer fremden Zeit und getrennt von ihrer Familie, nimmt sie mit ihrem High-Tech-Equipment erneut die Verfolgung der Terroristen auf. Zur Seite stehen ihr dabei das junge Technikgenie Alec (Erik Knudsen, „Jericho“) und der Polizist Carlos Fonnegra (Victor Webster, „Mutant X“). Mit ihrer Hilfe muss Kiera verhindern, dass Liber8 in den Lauf der Geschichte eingreift und die Zukunft manipuliert – scheitert sie, wird sie ihre Familie nie wiedersehen. Aber es gibt Dinge, von denen auch Kiera noch nichts ahnt…

Spitzenbewertungen aus Deutschland
Derzeit tritt ein Problem beim Filtern der Rezensionen auf. Bitte versuchen Sie es später noch einmal.
Die Serie beweist einmal mehr, dass die Kanadier ein traumhaftes Händchen für gute SciFi-TV-Serien besitzen (Ausnahmen bestätigen natürlich auch hier die Regel). Continuum ist eine Serie, die vom ersten Moment an Spannung und Interesse schafft. Die Darsteller wurden sorgfältig ausgewählt und meistern ihre Aufgabe sehr gut. Langweile entsteht zu keiner Zeit.
Leider ist nur die erste Staffel in deutscher Sprache verfügbar, und es gibt unverständlicherweise wohl keine Pläne, weitere Staffeln zu synchronisieren. In Kanada wird hingegen zum Zeitpunkt dieser Rezension bereits die vierte Staffel ausgestrahlt.
Die fünf Sterne gelten der Serie. Das Absetzen der Serie im deutschen Fernsehen (RTL/VOX) nach nur einer Staffel werte ich hingegen mit null Sternen. Wer auf eine deutsche Tonspur angewiesen ist, kauft hier zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt leider einen Cliffhanger.
Lohnt sich, genau mein Geschmack .....
Sehr gute Schauspieler, annehmbare Effekte aber umwerfend gute Story.

Yep, 'Continuum' is, to me, right up there...
The premise is this. The year is 2077. The place, Vancouver. Corporations have overtaken politicians to rule the country. A terrorist group, Liber8, are trying to bring change to the high-tech surveillance Police State that the world has become. As tens of thousands of people die in the conflict, Liber8's Leader, Edouard Kagame, is arrested by Kiera Cameron, a City Protection Services (CPS) Law Enforcement Officer, and brought to justice, along with his group.
Kiera is just doing her job; she a married mother of a pre pubescent boy.
When the group from Liber8 are sentenced to execution, and in the process of said act, use a smuggled time machine device to escape, inadvertently Kiera manages to find herself transported back in time herself....to 2012.
Whilst Liber8 plan to continue their terrorist acts on the corporations to, in effect, stop the future from happening, Kiera attempts to foil their schemes.
Kiera find herself involved with the Vancouver Police Department and, alongside Detective Carlos Fonnegra, track down the members of Liber8 and thwart their plans, whilst keeping her identity secret.
Kiera is assisted in her crusade by Alec Sadler, a young teen who is as surprised as Kiera that the tech that had built - a special com unit to communicate with user, visually and audial, and record data....via use of a chip implanted in the user - actually works. Of course, this is all part of Kiera's setup for being a CPS Law Enforcer in 2077; A standard piece of kit.
Imagine the surprise....the tech actually works.....and, from Kiera's perspective, she's been sent back in time.....and the Older Alec, from the future, seems to have had some part to play in what has happened.
From Violence, Liber8 gradually change to running a campaign of winning over 'Hearts & Minds'...
Kiera finds herself as a fish out of water....wanting to stop the rebellion but also wanting to put back together the pieces of the time machine device and go back home to the future and her family.
As the series goes on, we see flashbacks (flash forwards?!?) of the world in 2077; of the events that transpired on execution day, of the characters and political underhandedness going on....
Was Kiera's going back in time just coincidence or something planned?
The only reminder of her son is a model soldier that he gave her on the morning of the execution.
All the cast play a blinder. Rachel Nichols, as Kiera, does a very nuanced portrayal of the lead role, as does Erik Knudsen, who plays the young Alec. It's a great ensemble.....beautifully shot....great scripts....great story arcs....well paced....great action....great drama....with lots of twists and turns.
The series really does make you think....and it certainly makes Kiera think....that will changing the past effect what happens in the future? Will she be able to get back to her family? Will her family even EXIST in the future?
Brilliant....just brilliant...

Continuum is a very clever time-travel series made and set in Canada, with most of the action taking place in Vancouver, about a group of terrorists and a police officer from 2077 who are all sent back in time to 2012..
The story begins in the 2070's in a dystopian future. Governments have been replaced by a corporate police state run by very powerful and ruthless corporations through a Global Corporate Congress whose chairman and the most powerful man in the world is 82-year old Alec Sadler, an electronics genius who was founder and CEO of a vast mega-corporation called SadTech. Sadler is like a Bill Gates figure who instead of using his wealth for philanthropy used it to take over the world but he is an embodiment of the line from the bible, "What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul."
Sadler is portrayed as an octogenarian in the first episode and flashbacks to 2077 by William Davis and as an idealistic teenage who is one of the show's main characters in the second decade of the 21st century by Eric Knudsen.
The preface for the introductory sequence in Season one (and two) apart from the pilot episode, shows pictures of the central character, 2077 "Protector" (police officer) Kiera Cameron, played by Rachel Nichols, with her husband and son, and a voiceover which reads as follows:
"2077. My time, my city, my family. When terrorists killed thousands of innocents, they were condemned to die. But they had other plans. A time travel device sent us all back sixty-five 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."
A group of terrorists called Liber8 kill thousands of people to try to get twenty - the Corporate Congress leadership - and are sentenced to death. However, they trigger a device which sends them back in time to 2012, and Kiera Cameron is, apparently accidentally, sent back with them.
Kiera forms an alliance with Detective Carlos Fonnegra (Victor Webster) of the Vancouver Police Department, to try to limit the harm done by the terrorists, who continue their war against the corporations of the late 21st century by attacking those of 2012 - some of which are forerunners of the corporations which formed the Corporate Congress.
Kiera has various high tech equipment implanted in her body and in the "Protector" suit she is wearing which provides all sorts of opportunities for special effects SF trickery, and also when she arrives in 2012 these put her in touch with the 17-year-old Alec Sadler, who at this stage in his life is innocent and idealistic but a technical genius and already working on some of the communications devices built into Kiera's suit and implants . He and Carlos become Kiera's main friends and allies in 2012.
One good thing about this series IMHO is that it isn't black and white - most people will not approve of the methods of the Liber8 terrorists but their criticisms of the Corporate congress of the future and often of the way those corporations are already operating in 2012 are entirely justified. Kiera Cameron always tries to work within the law, protect the innocent, bring the guilty to justice using due process and avoid using lethal force unless she really has to - but you gradually come to realise as the story develops just how evil the corporate system which her wish to protect people has led her to serve really is, and how little it deserves her loyalty.
Another clever aspect of the series is the way it leaves you guessing about whether time travel can change the past. Throughout the first season and indeed and until not long before the end of the four-season story, what you see is carefully kept consistent with multiple possible ways that the consequences of time travel might work.
This first season has ten episodes and seasons two and three have thirteen and thirteen episodes respectively, gradually getting more and more complicated as the answers to some questions are eventually provided but give rise to further questions about what is going on.
The creator of the series had originally envisaged it as having seven to ten seasons, but the decision was taken by "Showcase" that the story would be finished in a fourth and final season of six episodes. The ending provided by those final six episodes works, but it does come over as a bit rushed, particularly in the final episode.
I thought the acting in this series was generally pretty good, the special effects excellent, the treatment of time travel very clever and the handling of complex ethical issues more sophisticated than usual for a TV science fiction show.
Overall I can recommend this series. But be aware, this season story is not stand-alone. If you buy this season one and like it, you'll have to watch the other three seasons to find out what's really going on and whether Kiera ever gets home.
But, when they’re whizzed back to present day, a corporate cop gets whizzed back with them - and chaos reigns.
In our present reality, when self-serving leaders, like Trump and May, are selling out the people’s future to greedy corporations - here’s that future coming back to today to tell us how hideous it could become - if we don’t do something now.
I’ve watched the whole series through twice - and I’d happily watch it all again.
And at least it has a proper ending: it didn’t get cancelled like so many have, that leave you dangling on a frustrating cliffhanger.
It is, of course, only a story - but it’s uncomfortably close to the road we’re heading down right now. Perhaps we ought to take it as a warning and fight to re-set our future on the right path right now. No one’s coming back from the future to save us…
A show from the syfy channel. Which like all their original offerings, is made in Canada on a bit of a budget.
The year is 2077. The world is dominated and run by corporations. A group of terrorists bent on bringing them down, and not above using murder to further their cause, are about to be executed when they escape. Using a device to help them travel back in time to 2012.
Police officer Kiera Cameron [Rachel Nichols] ends up coming along with them. Finding herself lost and stranded in a strange time, she happens to make an alliance with Alec, a young tech genius. And in no time at all has convinced the police to let them work for her, in order to hunt terrorists. Just not revealing the truth about her or their origins.
Gaining a partner in the shape of local detective Carlos, she sets out to capture the terrorists. And to try and return home. But there's a lot going on here, and the future that she knows is in the process of being shaped...
These shows, by virtue of cheap budget, have to become memorable by virtue of solid scripting and acting. And Continuum manages to do that. Rachel Nichols carries the show very well indeed, making Kiera more than just a tough lady cop by showing her emotions wherever possible. She and the actor playing Alec have an excellent chemistry.
There are occasional flashbacks [as it were] to 2077, which fill in more details of her origins and what went before.
The terrorists are not sympathetic, but they are solid characters as well.
Early episodes are often investigation of the week, which usually ties into the actions of Kiera's enemies. All these are solid and watchable stories, although the show can feel a little frustrating sometimes because Kiera often seems to be chasing shadows and never quite getting solid results and victories.
But there's some clever and solid plotting going on all the time, all of which comes together nicely in the two very strong final episodes of the season.
It does give the viewer good food for thought as well, in regards to the age old question about the ends and the means and terrorism as opposed to freedom fighting.
The end of the season does leave you with more questions than answers. But will make you want to come back for the latter. So it does it's job.
A decent first season for the show, and well worth a look.
All episodes run forty minutes [approx].
