Several of our Canadian readers had asked if IGN TV, whether via a written review or on the Channel Surfing podcast, would give our thoughts on the science fiction series Continuum. But as we explained on Channel Surfing, we couldn’t do this, because we haven’t seen the show – it hasn’t aired in the US yet.
But that will change soon. Deadline is reporting that Syfy is finalizing a deal to air the series in the United States, picking up the first season of ten episodes. Continuum will join fellow Canadian-originated series Lost Girl on Syfy.
Rachel Nichols in Continuum
Continuum stars Rachel Nichols (Alias, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra) as a Vancouver police officer in the year 2077 who is transported to the present, along with a group of convicted prisoners she must track down. Yes, that’s right – this is a sci-fi/genre series shot in Vancouver (where The 4400, Smallville, V, Fringe, Supernatural and so many genre series have been shot) that is actually set in Vancouver!
The cast also includes Erik Knudsen (Scream 4), Lexa Doig (Andromeda, V) and Roger Cross (24).
