@avaget: but in my opinion, on the contrary, they stretched it. It seems that it was written for a 2-hour finale, but 4.5 hours came out, so they stuffed all sorts of unnecessary suffering into it. Well, it seemed that way to me. The story of Kira, who fell into selfishness, seemed to me like a burden just to stall for time.
Beautifully finished. With notes of happiness and sadness. The meeting is extremely touching. The final season is the best season of Continuum. Even in spite of a certain crumpling.
Well, it seems like a good ending. Expected, but at least it all unraveled. Otherwise, we would have been left with a feeling of dissatisfaction. Beautiful scenes of goodbyes and meetings - knocked out a tear a couple of times. Sad with Kira is just right. Just one thought-did she ever come back? I could have lived this life with my friends, creating a better future with them, and now I'm out of work. Except that I found out that everything worked out for them. But I did well - I paid for my selfishness ;)
@alavitka: By the way, it's unpleasant, but I guessed why Vasquez resisted Kellogg's arrivals a little in advance, as soon as he said "I see love in your eyes."
@Suor: The mother's surname, as an option, is generally full of examples when even spouses have different surnames, and children...there is nothing surprising at all.
@alavitka: +100500 in fact, Kira returned in order to show us the same changed future, and so yes, she would have remained in our time with Alik, Carlos and the company.
@alavitka: I agree, it would be much more logical to stay with people who have become almost her family than to venture into a future in which she has NOTHING. Well, except for the elderly Alec, who is not eternal
I also think why she couldn't stay and just get a "message" from the future that everything was okay with her son, or they were afraid they wouldn't create a car anymore, but it's okay, they created it once, it was possible.
Interestingly, Kagami and Sadler met Kira, not Randall. It's clear that it's just a trick of the ears to scare the viewer or something. But Julian could have been shown. Or was he killed and I was watching so intently? Eddie just called him Uncle Julian. I thought it meant that he should remember it already at a more or less conscious age.
@jzuken: Not quite. There was a young man who was retouched, but you can see that he is young. There was still quite a grandfather like that. Googled it - Gerry Nairn played it.
@am-REAL: Wow, I don't remember. And I'm probably not the only one. Anyway, Kagami demonstrates the changes better. We saw Julian when he was still young, and he was changing. Besides, I understand he's kind of gone into a bose, just like Emily and Carlos.
@jsmarty: Well, no, he didn't look younger than Kagami, but both old Alec and Old Julian, very similar to the young ones, picked up perfectly simply, especially for Julian.
@am-REAL: The last time we saw Julian at the end of the episode where Lucas was killed, he enters Mrs. Kagami's house with a large bag. It's a tiny 5-10-second scene, but everything is clear from it - he moved in with them to (re)raise Edik. He took responsibility for (not) what he had done and began to fix the future with his own hands.
@am-REAL: "Wild times, apparently. But you already know that. You should have known him too." So you don't know, but YOU DID. Apparently, the deceased Julian is in this future..
Well, I didn't guess the ending. Basically good for the series finale. They dragged it out, stretched it out, got themselves tangled in the branches of time, but for the series it will work.
I was waiting for a dinosaur to come out near Kellogg's, but they probably didn't have enough money. But the natives are good too. Kira kept saying, I want to see my son. She saw him, so her wish came true. We finished well.
@Амишка: Yes, yes, yes, I was also expecting some kind of dinosaur, apparently, it didn't work out with financing.
In general, it's a sad and sad ending. I understand that a woman will turn mountains for her child and enter a burning hut. But in my opinion, she should have stayed in the past, because it was clear that her child would not be in the changed future.
And I didn't even follow the episodes, so it wasn't until about the middle of the last episode that I realized it was going to be the last=)
Sad, tearful, but pleasant at heart. It's a good ending.
@Arokh: No, a dinosaur would be too cruel, but they're the right guys. And anyway, then it would be easier to shoot him. As it is, he theoretically has a chance with the Indians - he is a master of talking teeth. You see, they'll become a god again =)) He just won't live up to technology for sure. Or maybe even before Columbus in general =))
@Shadowspawn: No. What did you watch? Traveller is a black man with dreadlocks in a raincoat and electronic gadgets implanted all over his body, they missed some series of hiking with him.
@Shadowspawn: Oops, the mistake came out, he's not a Negro, but rather an Arab or some kind of sambo, in short, here's a picture about him. http://continuum.wikia.com/wiki/The_Traveller
@alavitka: and I actually thought they would make a reserve for season 5, they say they sent him too far and he changed too much before their time, that now we have to go back and fix the fact that they sent him so far...
To be honest, I got confused back in that season with these time loops and variations of the future. Can someone briefly explain these points? 1) As far as I remember, any change in the past creates a new branch of the future. And someone out there didn't like it, it made everything so bad. Right? 2) That is, it is no longer enough to simply transfer from the past to your present, since the very appearance in this past changes everything. Thus, Kira could not return to her time in any way because she began to live in a new version of the future. 3) Old Alec used Kira and all this because there was some strange guy from the super future or somewhere else who let him meet Alec from another branch where the transfer had already taken place. So?
4) Consider this main line where Kira and all the other travelers survived. Nonsense lived for himself, and one day he will meet himself in the future if he wants to. And in the future you see an old man whom you remember. And then when you get old yourself, you realize that n number of years ago you saw yourself, but old. It's probably cool.
If I understood everything correctly. Kira's attempt to return to her place was basically a failure. so why she did it is not clear.
By the way, Kellogg was the most adequate in the whole series. I feel sorry for him
@Wefast: Yes, everything seems to be correct. Only she couldn't know for sure how the future had changed and that she would turn out to be a second copy of herself there. And the idea, yes, was a failure. It would have been better to stay in the past, even if she had lived her life with friends, but as it turned out, she did not have a lot left - her old ones are not hers now, and half of the past is dead, half will die soon. That is, everything turned out well, but GG screwed up at the very end. I also found her desire strange, although for a different reason-because it was selfish to the core.
I thought there would be this paradox. Now it remains to decide which Kira to leave them, or the boy will have 2 moms, and the dad will have 2 twin wives =)
P.S. And yes, I also thought, like the people above, that Kalog was sent to the dinosaurs =P
@Arcanaiel: they have already decided and said so directly. our Kira is out of work and left without a child, especially since this is not her child at all..
and what is there to think, in the course it is the same, there was simply no finance for animation. although they could have just done so, they say, Kellogg looks into the camera with an awesome look and says something in the style of "what the fuck..." and then a dinosaur roar is heard:
@Grevon: Alternatively, maybe something will work out with Brad. As long as he lives to 2077, he will be able to forget about his family from the future a hundredfold.
@Grevon: Yes, it wouldn't be bad. Only now, in this new 2077, Alec was no longer building an antimatter system, but in 2012 (or already 2015, because 3 years have passed?) The catalyst was this system of people from 2030+, and the machine ceased to operate, closing the portal after Kira's passage into the future. And a new journey can lead to new consequences, changes or new travelers, and, therefore, to new problems..
One question is why it was necessary to introduce the so-called "wanderer from the distant future", who practically had no effect on the storyline, he simply was not needed here. Yes, he brought Alik into the future once, but it might as well have been played in another way, rather than introducing an incomprehensible character that no one would reveal later. They just showed us that there is a "wanderer", OK. And then they showed that he returned to his future, OK.
@neologizm: after reading foreign resources, I realized that the "wanderer" was originally the reason for the entire series, he was sent to observe the development of time and at some point he screwed up, changing the future and deleting the one from which he originally came (this is the branch that Kira got into at the end of the series, where happy ending is, he is from there only on a couple hundred years later). That is, all this nonsense about corporations, liber8, and so on - it shouldn't have happened, so he had to look for a moment where he messed up and how to fix everything. This is how freelancers were founded, and eventually everything came to the episodes in the last season, where he fixed everything by letting Alec the young and Alec the old communicate, plus influencing events through the Asian. In the end, he returned to his own time, which began to exist again.
@Dampel: and why, may I ask, was the Wanderer kept locked up by the same freelancers he created? And what was the moment where he messed up? And how did he influence the fact that old Alec invented a time machine and sent Kira back in time?
Basically a great ending. Of course, Kira couldn't get into her future, because everything was changed and she wouldn't have gone into the past in any way. So the appearance of her original version from the future in this timeline is understandable. It's not clear why they didn't clarify it themselves. In any case, even if she is sent back to her friends in the past, she can meet herself again. Generally a fierce kneading. But we finished well, and thanks for that. Of course, Kellogg got involved with these Indians, but I think he'll become a famous shaman or something. The guy won't disappear.
At the end, I got confused about these time lines and what influences what. But I'm happy with the ending. And in terms of Kellogg, and in terms of Kira, and even in terms of the fact that everything has its price. We ended on a good note.
I was so afraid that they would merge the finale and not figure out the time paradoxes, and I'm so glad that my fears were not confirmed, the finale is gorgeous, just gorgeous! We did everything very well, especially the last 5 minutes, for the second Kira from the altered future, I shout bravo to the scriptwriters and give 10 points! I am very glad that they followed the path of logic. I am glad that the series was completed with dignity.
To the point of tears . The best ending I've ever seen. We ended up the way it should have been , without a happy ending , relying only on logic . 10\10
And I didn't like the ending, even though it was really logical - a banal happy ending would have been better. And in this scenario, Kira was supposed to see her son and go back to our time and appear a second later after she went through the portal. That would be the perfect ending for me personally. And anyway, of course, everything got screwed up because of the small number of episodes. Garza's role in the finale is not clear at all - they didn't even let her shoot. The goals of the Asian are also unclear, let alone the Wanderer. Who is he and where did he come from? Isn't this Kellogg who was accidentally sent back in time? In general, I'm disappointed in the finale, but thank you for making it at least generally closed. Well, the scene of Kira and Alec meeting in 2077 was very touching, of course, this is the only plus here.
@Stotsmnb311: A banal happy ending a priori couldn't be better...For once, we got a really thoughtful ending to a great show, not a blunder, just a happy ending. And again you have delusional thoughts "Kellogg = Wanderer?", there's only one question, WHAT? How can you even come to this? My opinion is that the Wanderer was launched into the plot with the expectation of continuing the series or at least a full season, but since it did not work out, the wanderer was never revealed, but at least they did not leave him with a tail, but showed that he had achieved his goal, that's the beauty of this ending, they tails They didn't leave.
@Godric-: Because they said that the Wanderer went back 1,000 years or so. And Kellogg's about the same. And yes, the option is that Kira, after seeing her son, returns back to our time in any way better than what is. And it doesn't contradict anything.
@Stotsmnb311: Firstly, we were told that a wanderer is a person from a distant future, much further away than the future from which Kira and co. came, i.e. this already excludes Kellock, the wanderer has inexplicable abilities that Kellock does not possess, and he simply would not be able to acquire in the place where he found himself. Secondly, who says that Kira won't come back after what she saw? They just didn't show it to us, but you can think of anything you want.
@Stotsmnb311: OMG, I just don't know how to talk to you properly, you reject all logic...You can only think about it where it is appropriate and possible, I have already explained about Kellock and the Wanderer as simply as possible. Turn on your head eventually.
@Godric-: And, by the way, about the Wanderer. Considering that the portal that was created in this series connects only times without creating parallel universes, and the fact that at the very end of the series they said that now the Wanderer can return to his own time, tells us that his civilization appeared just from the "good" future of Kira. So the Wanderer fixed all the mistakes that were once made and why he couldn't go back to his time. It can be assumed that the history of mankind has finally been corrected and it is as it should have been originally, i.e. the way the Wanderer originally appeared.
Yes, to the point of tears... I feel sorry for Kellogg, honestly. And this sending him back to the distant past would be more suitable for a comedy, rather than a series like Continuum. They spoiled the impression... the Wanderer was really useless... but Kira... All this time I wanted only one thing - to see my son... And it is very sad to realize that this is all...
It's called thank you for not making it worse. At least one branch was logically completed, it's good that they showed the second Kira, otherwise it would not have been logical at all, but there were a lot of "why" and most importantly.... why did Kellogg cancel the future by entering the portal?
@Dorian: Because he has passed away from our time, and accordingly he will not grow old and will not become the Kellogg who will assemble this whole army.
@Dorian: If he is not in the present, then he will not be able to go through the entire path of the "Kellock Leader" and, accordingly, the future will not come. Everything is extremely simple here. There was a similar theme in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, where in the finale of the second season and the series as a whole (unfortunately, I would like to continue), John Connor finds himself at a young age in the future, where there is already a war with machines, and when he calls his name, no one knows who John Connor is like that, and before this trip he was the "savior of mankind," but since he didn't go all that way, he didn't really exist.
I thought a dinosaur would eat Kellogg. And there's a yumba pedestal out of the bushes)) well, then he will find someone there in the distant past to mess up and will be the boss of the banana plantation under burdock.))
When he realized that Kellogg also wanted to jump into the future, a funny idea popped into his head that the Wanderer actually had his own plans for them, and he would intervene at the moment when Kira and Kellogg passed through the portal, changing the time of arrival and sending them to the distant past. So far away that it was Kira and Kellogg who would turn out to be the very Adam and Eve who launched the development of mankind or created another variation of human history. Oh, what an epic ending that would be.
However, the scriptwriters have given us a more down-to-earth, bittersweet, almost happy ending. The finale was somewhat reminiscent of the last episode of Fringe (those who watched will understand). Special thanks for being logical (hi guys from LOST).
In the end, all that remains is to say goodbye to the series and continue to believe that the Vancouver production base will continue to delight us with at least adequate Sci-Fi projects.
@neologizm: It's also interesting to me that he smokes and personalities who offer some completely inadequate "endings" and complain about an absolutely logical and adequate one...Truly, there will always be dissatisfied people...
@Godric-: Your lack of imagination does not mean that other people smoke something. My idea is just a simple idea. Why is it adequate? Because it can provide answers to many scientific and religious questions. Not to mention that it is compatible with various theories about the unnatural origin and development of civilization. In the same deified Interstellar, there is something similar when the protagonist assumes that the beings who helped him are actually people of the future who have achieved very high results in their development. So what's wrong with the idea that our history can be completely rewritten from the moment it was born, thanks to two time travelers who were unwittingly sent to such a distant past that they had the opportunity to become the first representatives of Homo Sapiens and launch another human history (they obviously wouldn't have been eaten by dinosaurs there)? The analogy with Adam and Eve is a simple analogy so that people understand the simplest example and the essence of the thought. However, it seems that you did not understand this. Maybe because of his narrow mindset, but maybe...although yes, due to narrow thinking.
@Karrong: What does Fringe have in common? Walter sacrificed himself there, but otherwise a happy ending. And here no one sacrificed themselves, but there is no such happy ending. Completely different endings.
@Stotsmnb311: The general thing is in the tone of the finale. The final season of the Edge was also given just to finish the series. Throughout the season, he also gave the impression of a much-delayed episode and waiting for a denouement. The finale was also far from the most action-packed, but it was quite good, giving a logical outcome with a bittersweet, almost happy ending. In the end, everyone has their own feelings. It reminded me of the Edge. You may have your own. Good luck.
With the culture that the aborigines had, it is unlikely that they would exalt Kellogg as a god and start worshipping him, simply kill him out of fright or devour him. So sending him at this time is like killing him, oh how Alec upset me. The theme of the wanderer is needlessly intertwined here. It's one thing when "Kira, you've created a new future in which everyone is happy and corporations aren't fucked up," it's another thing when "Kira, you've put your things back in place and now everything is as it was for the wanderer, thank you." And there wasn't much about him, it didn't belong at all. Overall, the finale is great. I am glad that with a flick of their hand they untangled the tangle of temporary intricacies that they had set up themselves. "Special thanks to the fans" - level 80 emotion :D
@sanchez486: Well, like the wanderer knows everything that the viewer knows, he went off and started, others did a lot of things, and only this option allowed him to return (and until the "tangles" unraveled, he had nowhere to return to). Well, that's how I understood it..
@neologizm: Damn it, they explained in the third season that when traveling through time, it's like a new universe is created, and a person sort of moves from the first to the second, and in the first one, it's like he just doesn't become. When else did Kira ask freelancers, "What's going to happen to this universe??" "They said, 'There's no way to save her.'
That's exactly the outcome I've been waiting for. It's a pity to say goodbye to your favorite characters, but it's better that way than if it ended unexpectedly, without prolonging, as is usually the case with TV series.
@wta: Because Kira, returning after Alec, took this part. I don't remember exactly what happened to her afterwards. Escher wanted to destroy it or use it somehow.. And the other part appeared when Alec and his son were trying to come up with something and make it, this was also mentioned.
The ending is not bad. But about absolutely nothing. As a result, Kira was left with a broken trough. She left all her friends in the past, and she didn't get her son back.
I didn't really follow the news of the series, so I just watched it as the episodes were released, and then the series was completed. The ending is good, even great. Not many TV shows are ready to leave the channel with dignity. It's a very nice meeting between Alec and Kira at the end. Alec was waiting for Hachiko)) It is sad that there is no family reunion. As I saw somewhere in a comment: "It would be better if she stayed in the past, that's where she belongs, and in the future she just isn't needed."
Callogg, it seems to me, is forcing the natives on himself, and he'll be fine. :D And Alec spent his whole life with Emily. Jason, it turns out, was never born? Oh, these time paradoxes
And of course, I feel sorry for Kira. She is superfluous and a stranger in this brave new world. And she doesn't have anyone here except Alec, who doesn't have much left.
@asmort: The new Jason has not appeared, and the old one has not gone anywhere, different time branches. And Kira doesn't need to be pitied, in fact, she saw her son, he's fine, she fixed the future, now everything is fine, and nothing prevents her from going back to the past, since Alec knows how and can do it.
@asmort: by the way, Jason handed over a note for the adult Alec, but Kira did not hand it over, well, more precisely, they did not show this, which he wrote. Apparently they didn't have time to come up with clever phrases for the leaf :)
@anikum: I was rooting for Kellogg for a while and even made out with Kira a little bit, but then he wasn't an absolutely and irrevocably finished, unscrupulous type, there was something human in him, but in the end...in general, I think he fully deserved what he got in the end.
How abrupt! But at least they didn't wind down the way they usually wind down TV series. They gave me a decent ending. We answered almost all the questions. Thanks for that!
@Komandor89: Even if you count on the fingers of the teenage mutant Ninja Turtles, another 1 finger will remain uncurled, unfortunately this topic is not very popular among TV series, but there are plenty of procedural ones, where is justice, where is good science fiction? ( I can recommend Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles at least something. And if it's from the old ones, there's a good series called Quantum Leap.
@alekx: but why transfer it? After all, she had moved to a different future from where Jason was from. In this future, he probably wasn't born at all - he's a time paradox and lived with this Alex for the rest of his life.
@Dolorous: I know what kind of stuff they're going to do, but I can't help but say that I would never have thought that Garza (I don't know what the actress' name is) would look better in a defender's costume than Kira (Nichols), and that's for all my love for Nichols...In the form of a lady, there's nothing to say. As for the character, yes, Garza, in principle, has never been harshly stupid and it seems like her goals have not changed, they have not changed their ideals, unlike many of the main characters.
@Godric-: most of all, the lady who was our hacker's friend was having fights :) in at least one scene, she was giving away so much, just like the Black Widow from the Avengers :z
kapets, I finally didn't understand the gender of the series. After all, if you kill a person from the past, there should be no future either. So how did it happen that Duncan shot Cameron from the past and she stayed alive from the future? And why is there another one when Cameron returns?
@mixvaer: Rather, it is unclear how Kellogg was going to survive by cutting out the kidneys of a young man. Although maybe he wasn't going to, or just one.
At first, I was upset for a second that it was already over and how much more could have been done. But then I decided it was a great ending. The series didn't have time to "slide" in my eyes, as it sometimes happens even with good series, but with a lot of episodes / seasons, when there are "holes" and you don't understand the point of why you had to make this or that turn. In general, the ending came out excellent, both joyful and sad at the same time, there is something natural in it, while it is "not far-fetched."
I feel so sorry for Kira... although if you think about it that way, their ending with Kira and her son is more plausible than if she had returned to her altered time and the child was waiting for her.
A decent ending, a little sad, but worthy. Although I was still hoping for a different ending. Although it's no surprise when, already in the first season, Kira and everyone else specifically changed the chronology of the future. So it was no longer possible to go back to her future...Oh well))) Overall, the season is good. Noticeable improvement in special effects and combat scenes.
I wanted to write anyway, but I couldn't find it in the comments to give me a boost. The creators, of course, are great. We have done a serious job. The sixth season is quite dynamic, even too much in places - bloodshed and evaporating cops... Of course, this is not logical. Oh well. But Kira's journey into the future is a completely unintelligible thing. That is, on the contrary, I do not agree that this is a selfish impulse on her part. As a mother, she doesn't only think about herself, she wants to be with her child, to be there for him, to be his mom, because he needs it. But HOW can she even imagine for a second that her child is still her child in the future? According to the logic of the series, she must believe that there is no Liber8 in the future, there are no all these problems, and Kira from the future (if she was born) will never be in that courtroom and will not fly into the past. That is, she will be there. And because of some cosmic love (so cool that in the first season she jumps on Callogg's yacht), she marries that dude again. And here, in my opinion, the scriptwriters messed up terribly... the child couldn't be the same. All science fiction works suffer from this. I slightly changed the past, shifted the time/place/position/state of health and a million other factors by a fraction of a second, and conception occurs between completely different cells! This is a completely random process. How many spermatazoids are produced every day? Multiply by the number of days in the estimated period of conception... Plus, one month for each egg. And it will work... Awfully small helicopter! That is, if everyone in this series is so smart and if they understand all the time paradoxes so well, it's unpleasant that they don't take this into account. And of course, I agree that Kira should have stayed. But she clung to the chance she had imagined to reunite with her son. And broke off. It is clear that she will survive and find a way to adjust to life in this future. After all, she's a tenacious bug :)
This is the finale.....for me, initially this series was always on "4", there were some moments in the series that really made me worry, feel emotions, and then there was such a finale and a feeling of complete sadness and emptiness. I didn't regret that I started watching this series and finished it.
One of the rare cases in the world of TV series, when a seemingly average series, not to say that it grabbed stars from the sky, sometimes you think when it's already closed, gets a shortened last season, which, by the way, was also stretched in places... and you watch the last episode until the last second.... That's it?! That's it! Bright, beautiful, with a twist. Well done. A good ending has been a rarity lately!
For me, the ending crept up unnoticed. And I really want to exclaim, "That's it?" The very end evokes mixed feelings. The joy that the world has changed for the better and the desperate pain that Kira has returned, but she cannot be with her son. Maybe she should have built her new future from the time she found herself in. But who knows what else it could turn out to be for the world. P.S. primitive people were incredibly pleased :D
Congratulations to everyone who made it to the end. In general, I liked the series, but it was possible to keep up with the 3 seasons, without prejudice to the plot.
Eh... Here's another series over. They certainly did a lot of thinking. It's clear that Kira returned to the future just to show us how life turned out for everyone. After all, if she had stayed with her friends, we would not have known what had become of them - there would have been no tearful end) As for her son, couldn't Alik have predicted this, and what was she hoping for anyway!? She could only be his mother if she returned to exactly the place she left from!!! I liked the ending!!! Goodbye Kira Cameron!!! (I won't review the series)
It seems to me that Kelog could have done a lot of harm from the past. Technological progress would have started much earlier in history. And then, as we wrote above, he could have created a cult where, from generation to generation, everyone would have to kill Kira.
@KORBAN_DALLAS: Yes, he understands finance, PR and benefits, he understands that it is expensive and technologically advanced, but he himself is not a great mind to assemble such technologies, especially in a time where there is not even running water and electricity yet.
Very cool. Just in the piggy bank of the best TV series.
Thank you for not finishing the third or any season earlier than this, because the ending of the series as it turned out is the best ending. I didn't get confused in the timelines, logic didn't suffer for the most part either (maybe I didn't notice because the plot was so very interesting), only the police in the penultimate episode showed the wonders of superintelligence by jumping into the automatic line.
Perhaps it's for the best that the financing has ended - they didn't delay it. The characters are wonderful, everyone has been revealed both from a positive and a negative side. It felt like they were real people. I feel sorry for Kira, but I understand her. Hope is the last thing to die, and for all three seasons Kira hoped to see her Sam again (she almost lost her mind from this), acted emotionally, selfishly, but she succeeded - she saw.
Alik did well. Carlos did well. Travis showed his best qualities at the end. Kellogg is a tricky bug, of course, but I liked him throughout all the seasons, even though he got what he deserved by killing his daughter and going so far back in time.
Overall, the series left only positive impressions. It was very cool.
We completed it well globally. But I waited and hoped that it would remain in the past. Because what should she do in the new future, she's a stranger there
@Godric-: +1 They found out when they killed Kellogg's grandmother. The future option disappears, but everyone who has already arrived in the current timeline from there is not affected by the changes.
It's a very sad ending. It wasn't fair that she was sent back, even though it was immediately clear that she couldn't be with Sam. But I thought the traveler would do his magic shit and merge their energies or whatever he was doing. She'll outlive everyone, and what should she do now? She had almost nothing left. And why did Alec stay with Emily if she killed his dad and was also spying on him? Or is it so much proof that Alec has become a kind version of himself?
But the Wanderer is quite attracted to Jesus. Miracle-working, resurrection of the dead... and his "joint", because of which he destroyed his future, turned pale a little more than 2000 years ago, when he turned from a simple observer of existence into an object of religion...
I decided to review the series. After all, he's very good, and he's really catchy from start to finish. The events had been a little forgotten over the years, so I was even confused at first how there could be another Kira in the future. And it was only after reading the comments that she agreed that Kira really could have got into a different reality. In general, it's even a shame, she was so eager to get there, so that in the end she would just be a bystander to the life of "her" family. It would have been better if she had really stayed there, in the past, Carlos had told her almost twenty times how he would like her to stay)) I loved their partnership so much.
Well, it was hard, but I watched it anyway. I have tons of questions about this series... why is everyone jumping around Kira, considering how rude and selfish she is? Why the whole line with the Wanderer, if in fact it was all about Alec and his desire to build a better world? Why did the organization created by the Wanderer keep him locked up? Why was it necessary to introduce Jason's mother's line? Why was Kira sent at all? Wouldn't it have been easier to kill Kellogg so that his future would cease to exist, which meant that the soldiers would have no one to transport to the present? How did the Wanderer arrange a meeting between the old Alec from 2077 and the young Alec from 2016, if Kellogg's future happened in 2039? Or is it an alternative future? After all, if so, then all this is completely meaningless, because it means that there are countless timelines and all the futures happened, just in different timelines, and the transition is not in time, but between timelines (as shown in the Avengers). If the soldiers were able to travel back in time, what prevented them from moving more people in the same way? Why this portal? Why did old Kellogg send soldiers at this particular time instead of killing everyone under the bridge except himself? Why did they send Tomkin alone in the first place, if they could have sent more people? The whole series told Julian how important he would be, that Theseus would rise up in rebellion. But in fact, he just raised Kagame, as I understand it, and no revolution happened again, because Alec did not become a corporation. Where did Garza go? And many more other questions... If you don't turn on your head, like most of the local commentators, then it's a good series. Fans of science fiction with critical and logical thinking should avoid it. Total 3/5, turn on the background if you have already watched all the other series.
I'm waiting for dislikes, it's just the way it's done - don't ask questions.
@iEstale: I dislike you not because you are the only one here who has managed to get into the questions and split the cheap TV series on two legs, but just because, in fact, you called most of the commentators dumb-headed people without critical thinking. I'm not a loser, if anything. But I didn't like you either :)
@FRFD: I gave up on ratings and stuff a long time ago. I've been in this game too long. :It's just that this series annoyed me very much throughout the entire viewing - all I wrote were questions only for the last season, and in general there are MANY more of them. It disappoints me that people are watching and "liking" IT, and good science fiction series are being shut down. I didn't call everyone dumb-headed people, etc. It's just that I've been here for a long time and I see what and who is writing comments. And I hope, I just hope, that there will be more people who will think and choose suitable series, and not this one... Once upon a time, Firefly was shut down because of such "dumb-heads" - and I'll never forgive that (yes, I'm one of THEM). P.S. But I liked you, because you're right.
@iEstale: Can you tell me if you've watched any good time travel series? It seems to me that I looked at everything that is more or less well-known, and I might have missed some unpopular and good ones. I've been searching in vain for something like "12 monkeys" for a long time. I only find something like a Continuum - I was driven through time once, and then a detective / sayfay without traveling or this topic for a long time x)
@Stalker13: in addition to the suggested ones by @alavitka, you can also take a look at 11.22.63, Travelers, Ministry of Time, and Darkness, of course.
@iEstale: the key point is (which, by the way, is reflected in the comment) that most of the commenters wrote all this in the year the series was released, and not after a long time, when a lot of things also touched on this topic came out. Therefore, the impressions are already different. The series is just watchable right now, with a lot of assumptions in the process. Personally, I set 4 at a discount for time and financial problems (too noticeable in the last season was the crumpled completion associated with the unplanned closure, well, at least to some extent, the main branch was reasonably closed, although to the detriment of almost all the side effects)
@deadtobefree: Can I watch it? Yes, you can. Do I need to watch it? In my opinion, no, it's not worth it. It's better to choose something more interesting and worthy. I stand by my opinion - you can run it in the background if everything else has already been viewed. No more. A score of 4 does not fit into this characteristic. I didn't understand about the years at all. At the time of watching this series, it was only 6 years old, and if you start digging, you will see that even in this genre there were already more worthy representatives.
Unfortunately, this curious start did not turn into a good development. The introduction of new characters and new arcs of the plot crashed against the harsh reality and resulted in the unfinished business of all endeavors. With a lot of assumptions, the series turned out to be watchable, but controversial. Only two characters have a fully completed and normal character arc. Kellogg and Travis. The rest of us go to different, sometimes illogical, extremes along the way. The preparation for the global storyline (The Traveler) resulted in the "piano in the bushes". A happy ending with a fly in the ointment is one of the most optimal endings (in the end, Kira wants even a worse ending than just becoming superfluous in a new world). In principle, an early conclusion is most likely to benefit the series. Already in the third season, the scriptwriters clearly began to actively walk on the previously placed rake. 10 years ago, it definitely looked more interesting given the low competition. Right now, it's clearly not the kind of series that would make sense to watch, but it's not the worst thing to watch once.
It's a great series, with a thoughtful and complete plot. Not without flaws, but close to the ideal. Nothing better has been removed on this topic and will not be removed.
The series was pleasantly surprised, although initially I did not have much hope for it) and the Smoker and Krajicek were pleased (fans of the X-Files will understand). Anyway, the caste is good. The end is just to tears...
The ending is awesome! A world without corruption and wars is just a dream! But it's a pity that Kira won't be able to raise a child, because according to the new chronology, Kira already exists, and it's for the best, even though it hurts
Alas, the series turned out to be even worse than average... Perhaps the only advantage is the reference jabagadyking, because ALL the characters are vile in their own way. It's understandable that they're trying to sell us their good points, but almost everyone has their hands up to their elbows in blood, or their conscience wakes up and falls asleep on command, so it's over.
The characters are poorly developed, which for the most part also causes confusion, the very temporal representations of the characters and the implementation by the scriptwriters are generally without comments. The general atmosphere still somehow takes out if the brain is turned off...
The series ended well, it was touching, and happiness and sadness.... Kira saw her son, it's a pity that you can only see ... And I was really waiting for the dinosaur behind Kellogg's back)))) The series is not cut short, there is a finale. I advise you to watch it!
Discussion: Season 4, Episode 6 Join the Discussion
177The final season is the best season of Continuum. Even in spite of a certain crumpling.
Or was he killed and I was watching so intently? Eddie just called him Uncle Julian. I thought it meant that he should remember it already at a more or less conscious age.
So you don't know, but YOU DID. Apparently, the deceased Julian is in this future..
Kira kept saying, I want to see my son. She saw him, so her wish came true.
We finished well.
In general, it's a sad and sad ending. I understand that a woman will turn mountains for her child and enter a burning hut. But in my opinion, she should have stayed in the past, because it was clear that her child would not be in the changed future.
And I didn't even follow the episodes, so it wasn't until about the middle of the last episode that I realized it was going to be the last=)
Sad, tearful, but pleasant at heart. It's a good ending.
Can someone briefly explain these points?
1) As far as I remember, any change in the past creates a new branch of the future. And someone out there didn't like it, it made everything so bad. Right?
2) That is, it is no longer enough to simply transfer from the past to your present, since the very appearance in this past changes everything. Thus, Kira could not return to her time in any way because she began to live in a new version of the future.
3) Old Alec used Kira and all this because there was some strange guy from the super future or somewhere else who let him meet Alec from another branch where the transfer had already taken place. So?
4) Consider this main line where Kira and all the other travelers survived.
Nonsense lived for himself, and one day he will meet himself in the future if he wants to.
And in the future you see an old man whom you remember. And then when you get old yourself, you realize that n number of years ago you saw yourself, but old. It's probably cool.
If I understood everything correctly. Kira's attempt to return to her place was basically a failure. so why she did it is not clear.
By the way, Kellogg was the most adequate in the whole series. I feel sorry for him
P.S. And yes, I also thought, like the people above, that Kalog was sent to the dinosaurs =P
and what is there to think, in the course it is the same, there was simply no finance for animation. although they could have just done so, they say, Kellogg looks into the camera with an awesome look and says something in the style of "what the fuck..." and then a dinosaur roar is heard:
I am glad that the series was completed with dignity.
And anyway, of course, everything got screwed up because of the small number of episodes. Garza's role in the finale is not clear at all - they didn't even let her shoot. The goals of the Asian are also unclear, let alone the Wanderer. Who is he and where did he come from? Isn't this Kellogg who was accidentally sent back in time?
In general, I'm disappointed in the finale, but thank you for making it at least generally closed. Well, the scene of Kira and Alec meeting in 2077 was very touching, of course, this is the only plus here.
My opinion is that the Wanderer was launched into the plot with the expectation of continuing the series or at least a full season, but since it did not work out, the wanderer was never revealed, but at least they did not leave him with a tail, but showed that he had achieved his goal, that's the beauty of this ending, they tails They didn't leave.
And yes, the option is that Kira, after seeing her son, returns back to our time in any way better than what is. And it doesn't contradict anything.
the Wanderer was really useless...
but Kira... All this time I wanted only one thing - to see my son... And it is very sad to realize that this is all...
why did Kellogg cancel the future by entering the portal?
However, the scriptwriters have given us a more down-to-earth, bittersweet, almost happy ending. The finale was somewhat reminiscent of the last episode of Fringe (those who watched will understand). Special thanks for being logical (hi guys from LOST).
In the end, all that remains is to say goodbye to the series and continue to believe that the Vancouver production base will continue to delight us with at least adequate Sci-Fi projects.
Anyway, good luck to you.
But you're the only one talking nonsense here.
sweet, though.
=)
The theme of the wanderer is needlessly intertwined here. It's one thing when "Kira, you've created a new future in which everyone is happy and corporations aren't fucked up," it's another thing when "Kira, you've put your things back in place and now everything is as it was for the wanderer, thank you." And there wasn't much about him, it didn't belong at all.
Overall, the finale is great. I am glad that with a flick of their hand they untangled the tangle of temporary intricacies that they had set up themselves.
"Special thanks to the fans" - level 80 emotion :D
And the other part appeared when Alec and his son were trying to come up with something and make it, this was also mentioned.
Kagami is good. Julian did everything right!
And it was Carlos who smeared me in the memorial park...
The template is broken! =)
The ending is good, even great. Not many TV shows are ready to leave the channel with dignity.
It's a very nice meeting between Alec and Kira at the end. Alec was waiting for Hachiko))
It is sad that there is no family reunion. As I saw somewhere in a comment: "It would be better if she stayed in the past, that's where she belongs, and in the future she just isn't needed."
And Alec spent his whole life with Emily. Jason, it turns out, was never born? Oh, these time paradoxes
And of course, I feel sorry for Kira. She is superfluous and a stranger in this brave new world. And she doesn't have anyone here except Alec, who doesn't have much left.
P.S. What other time travel series would you recommend watching?
I can recommend Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles at least something. And if it's from the old ones, there's a good series called Quantum Leap.
and my favorite character, oddly enough, is Garza - well, I like her)))
But fighting, yes, of course she's better prepared.
in at least one scene, she was giving away so much, just like the Black Widow from the Avengers :z
And why is there another one when Cameron returns?
The creators, of course, are great. We have done a serious job. The sixth season is quite dynamic, even too much in places - bloodshed and evaporating cops... Of course, this is not logical. Oh well.
But Kira's journey into the future is a completely unintelligible thing. That is, on the contrary, I do not agree that this is a selfish impulse on her part. As a mother, she doesn't only think about herself, she wants to be with her child, to be there for him, to be his mom, because he needs it. But HOW can she even imagine for a second that her child is still her child in the future? According to the logic of the series, she must believe that there is no Liber8 in the future, there are no all these problems, and Kira from the future (if she was born) will never be in that courtroom and will not fly into the past. That is, she will be there. And because of some cosmic love (so cool that in the first season she jumps on Callogg's yacht), she marries that dude again. And here, in my opinion, the scriptwriters messed up terribly...
the child couldn't be the same. All science fiction works suffer from this. I slightly changed the past, shifted the time/place/position/state of health and a million other factors by a fraction of a second, and conception occurs between completely different cells! This is a completely random process. How many spermatazoids are produced every day? Multiply by the number of days in the estimated period of conception... Plus, one month for each egg. And it will work... Awfully small helicopter! That is, if everyone in this series is so smart and if they understand all the time paradoxes so well, it's unpleasant that they don't take this into account.
And of course, I agree that Kira should have stayed. But she clung to the chance she had imagined to reunite with her son. And broke off. It is clear that she will survive and find a way to adjust to life in this future. After all, she's a tenacious bug :)
P.S. primitive people were incredibly pleased :D
As for her son, couldn't Alik have predicted this, and what was she hoping for anyway!? She could only be his mother if she returned to exactly the place she left from!!!
I liked the ending!!! Goodbye Kira Cameron!!! (I won't review the series)
Thank you for not finishing the third or any season earlier than this, because the ending of the series as it turned out is the best ending. I didn't get confused in the timelines, logic didn't suffer for the most part either (maybe I didn't notice because the plot was so very interesting), only the police in the penultimate episode showed the wonders of superintelligence by jumping into the automatic line.
Perhaps it's for the best that the financing has ended - they didn't delay it.
The characters are wonderful, everyone has been revealed both from a positive and a negative side. It felt like they were real people. I feel sorry for Kira, but I understand her. Hope is the last thing to die, and for all three seasons Kira hoped to see her Sam again (she almost lost her mind from this), acted emotionally, selfishly, but she succeeded - she saw.
Alik did well. Carlos did well. Travis showed his best qualities at the end. Kellogg is a tricky bug, of course, but I liked him throughout all the seasons, even though he got what he deserved by killing his daughter and going so far back in time.
Overall, the series left only positive impressions. It was very cool.
They found out when they killed Kellogg's grandmother. The future option disappears, but everyone who has already arrived in the current timeline from there is not affected by the changes.
In general, it's a very good and interesting series in terms of time theories. Imho - worthy.
So if you're reading this thinking about whether to watch the series or not, definitely watch it :)
I hope you enjoy it.
