About
"A cop stranded between two competing dystopias"
A police officer from a corporate-controlled 2077 gets thrown back to present-day Vancouver alongside a group of escaped revolutionaries she was sent to capture. Stranded and desperate to get home, she teams up with local law enforcement while wrestling with which side of history she's actually on. It's brisk, plot-driven genre TV: time-loop mechanics, shifting loyalties, and a moral haze around whether the "villains" have a point. Budget-conscious but smartly written, it rewards patience through a slower start with increasingly tangled, ambitious time-travel stakes.
Watch it for
the way it complicates its own hero, making the terrorists' cause uncomfortably persuasive over time.
Maybe skip if
you need slick production values and can't forgive early-season exposition dumps.
