The Review at the End of the Universe
“Dick Grayson” Well, we made it. The endless rambling and meandering and sidetracking have finally stumbled towards the end of this first season of Titans, if not the end of its actual story. Although the series wasn’t entirely a badly-written dumpster fire of an endurance trial and was admittedly interspersed with the occasional flash of…
“Koriand’r” Titans slowly stumbles ever closer towards its conclusion with another fragment of story. Where Kory came from is revealed along with why she was searching for Rachel, while Rachel herself struggles with the danger of her dark side, and Gar is haunted by the memory of the man he killed. Koriand’r kicks off right…
“Donna Troy” With Titans‘ alternation between episodes following the principal story and those taking on meandering side plots, it would follow that we’re due for another of the latter, especially since such episodes are invariably titled after the characters brought in for a one-shot appearance. However, those churning out this tedious slog of a series…
“Final Hour” The last ever Continuum episode – ‘Final Hour’ – finishes the show on a moment perhaps geared for the parents in the audience. The final message is one of sacrifice: you should give of yourself to build a better future for your children. Now, I said that I wasn’t looking for a perfect…
‘The Desperate Hours’ ‘The Desperate Hours’ are those of Continuum season 4’s fifth and penultimate episode, in which the characters fall into desperation as they fear their plans may fall apart. Kiera needs so many pieces in place to arrange her trip to the future and only Alec remains steadfastly by her side. Brad is torn by his feelings…
“Zero Hour” Continuum season 4’s fourth episode – ‘Zero Hour’ – is the hour of answers. Some characters are perhaps still to show their hands and the physics of it all might still be a little in question but we’ve now been shown most of the background. The soldiers are building a portal to the…
“Power Hour” I wondered what direction Continuum would move in for its finish in three episodes time. Would the focus be on the characters pursuing their goals, so it’s more about us cheering for our favourites, or would it move back to the philosophy and ideology of the first series? In this episode I think we’re seeing…
“Rush Hour” The final season of Continuum moves along with more build-up of Kellogg’s potential to become the central antagonist of the final episodes. I’m covering for Aaron who normally -I say normally, it has only been back for two episodes- writes about Continuum on here as he is on holiday this week. This episode…
“Lost Hours” Continuum season 4 opens with “Lost Hours”, the first episode of what will be the final season. “The Internet” suggests that creator Simon Barry had ideas for many more seasons but, like so many shows we love, Continuum is getting cut short. However, unlike many shows we’ve loved it’s being given a chance to…
