    I don't mean to be a dick, but perhaps since you are almost 10 episodes behind and I'm pretty sure this is a Canadian Pace thread (i.e. a week ahead of US and god knows how much longer than here), you should read a few pages back. I think most of that stuff has been discussed already.

    On second thought, don't do that... Just catch up, otherwise it's all spoilers right?!


    Im on Episode 8-hardly ten episodes behind plus the question is hardly complex?! But I take your overall point.

    Chen was 'brought back to life' when the freelancers travelled to Keira's time and rescued him from prison where he was awaiting the original execution.

    Clever episode. Despite my fears, it didn't tie itself up in knots. Great ending too!

    ‘Continuum’ Q&A: Simon Barry on “Last Minute”
    TVGC: Has Shaw given an indication as to when a Season 4 announcement would be made?

    SB: Shaw has indicated that they will be letting me know as soon as they can, which will probably be in July.

    I think the series could use a bit of investment. Production values ...

    Well that was a cliffhanger. Looks like the future is destined to suck.

    Was I the only one thinking that we know for definite that Kellogg is involved in the new timeline's future so maybe they should get rid of him as well?

    And what is that big piece of the device or where'd it come from?

    But he was on the "good" side in the Alt Future - or so it seems. Then again maybe he was just pretending in order to send back a device that allowed him to push through soldiers from his future?
    And what is that big piece of the device or where'd it come from?
    They explained that - Jason said they jury rigged the missing piece of the device.

    Ah missed that part. I remember him saying they weren't missing a piece but missed that they made up a piece themselves.

    So, it appears Kellog was just moving the pieces to position his control of the timeline even further. With the traveller probably being the only one aware of what was really going to happen?

    Enjoyed it, was thinking for ages the twist would be Alec having a fake RFID and tricking Kiera into the thinking the desired Alec was dead. When in fact evil Alec was still alive and planning.

    I thought it was interesting that in the future they said something like "where the traveller leads, we follow", or something like that, almost like a religious statement. He's obviously well known at that point, which makes me think it's not Kellogg, since he's "the big man" already there.

    Pretty sure that if you pause it on the close up of his shadowed face behind the hair you can see that it's Kellogg. Quite enjoyed the finale. Jumping to the Liber8 side was a bit of a sudden move for Ciara to do. Looking forward to the next season.

    The Traveller is from 1000 years into the future. How does that map to what we know of Kellogg? Or why is he helping out the resistance in Alt Future 30 years from now?
    It's convoluted but then the show is itself.
    Jumping to the Liber8 side was a bit of a sudden move for Ciara to do.
    Is it though? A lot of the flash backs this season have shown Kiera questioning or wondering about the orders she received in her time on the force. I think that was on purpose now so that her switch is understandable.

    It's not really the first two seasons showed her doubts. Once getting back to her family was out of question it seemed inevitable. Why try preserve the timeline any more?

    This is where I think that the flashback style tends to muddy the waters of characters motivations. A little at least. It just seems to be a little convenient to say a character had the motivations before when they dont really appear to have influenced her and how she pursued Liber8.

    The key factor here is that she still won't condone their methods - only their aim. It's not a stretch for her to decide that the corporate future is a bad one because we've seen her doubts for years. It would be a stretch if she wanted to pursue it by violent means, which she doesn't. The difference is now that Liber8, having seen the Alt Future, no longer want to use aggressively violent means so she's now able to find a more common middle ground.

    Nothing confirmed yet but in The 100 and Continuum they aren't main characters so they could probably do both shows easily enough.

    Different times of the year too. Actors can work on more than one show. :)

    Was worried two episodes ago, but this has been a brilliant season closer. Can they keep this from sprawling out of control though?
    I really don't know who the Traveller is. Though I wish they'd dream up a way of bringing back Kagame!

    I wish they would get shot of alec. Terrible actor imo. And unless he has a growth spurt he'll never be as tall as future alec

    bring back betty and get her to have a lesbo thing with rachel......

    No need to bring back Betty, I'd settle for Emily in her place, especially with Sonya gone as well.

    So at what point does Alec take up smoking and being a thorn in Mulder's side?

    Not so much that-the small offices. The lack of special effects
