Canadian Time Travel Television Show “Continuum” Has In-Depth ARG Dan Koelsch, May 30, 2012May 29, 2012 Briefly: I’m sure much of our regular readers in the US aren’t familiar with Canadian television, but a new series debuted this past Sunday (very successfully) on the Showcase channel called Continuum. The show is about a detective from 2077 who travels back to 2012 to stop terrorists.
