- TriviaAs the show deals with time travel, it is only fitting that each episode title relates to that. In the first season, all episodes have the word "Time" in their titles, such as "Wasting Time" or "Playtime".
In the second season the writers expanded on the idea and named each episode something with "Second". This can be read as both the time measurement, but also an indication of the season to which the episodes belong.
Keeping in line with the previous seasons, all episodes in Season 3 includes the word "Minute" in their titles.
Continuing the trend set by the previous seasons, all episode titles the final season contain the word Hour. Very fittingly, the final episode of the final season is called Final Hour.

- Quotes
[second season opening title sequence]
Kiera Cameron: 2077. My time, my city, my family. When terrorists killed thousands of innocents, they were condemned to die. They had other plans. A time travel device sent us all back 65 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.

Anyways, Continuum was an excellent sci-fi show done on a lower budget. The characters and scripts were very well done. This is how you do a great show on a budget.
Rachel Nichols and Eric Knudson are standout actors in this series. I really don't understand why it was canceled. You will notice many familiar faces from other sci-fi shows here, such as Lexa Doig and dude who played Master Bretak on Stargate SG-1.
I highly recommend this series. It was sad they had to end it with a 6 episode season, but that is better than ending it with nothing.
