• Continuum on YouTube

    YouTube is offering on odd assortment of free tv and movies. I just
    spotted Continuum, the fantastic Canadian tv series that dared to use
    Vancouver as a setting, with a mix of familiar tv actors Rachel Nichols
    and Lexa Doig in a small part. Stephen Lobo played a duplicitous
    character. The music was fantastic.

    It made me sign in but I finally found a way around age verification.

    I guess I've been using Youtube so long it doesn't bother me with age verification. Though as much as I liked this show a max resolution of
    480P isn't making me want to rewatch it.

    Ah, there are better versions available: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwHLdJiYQAE

    Same show but at 1080P. The description for the channel is:
    "got all seasons of Continuum on the channel
    (some episodes has restrictions in Canada)"

    Been there for 7 months so maybe no one is checking the copyrights on
    the show now.

    I did run into another short sci-fi series from the UK on Youtube the
    other day. "Invasion Earth: 1998"

    I don't remember ever looking at Continuum but when I tried your link,
    it told me:

    Video unavailable
    It was blocked due to the claimed content by Corus Entertainment.

    Maybe I'll grab it off the grey someday if I get sufficiently curious.

    Well that's strange because it's still available to me. Perhaps it's
    some regional block? Corus Entertainment is a Canadian company so
    perhaps it's a block only in Canada. Using a VPN and choosing a server
    outside of Canada should get you past the block.

    I suspect it *is* a geoblock. Maybe it's still airing up here on one of

    Strangely enough, that one is NOT geo-blocked for me.

    There's *a ton* of stuff on places like You Tube and Daily Motion that
    isn't there legally. The problem for those companies is that it's
    impossible to check every posting, so they simply rely on people
    reporting illegal material, and most people don't report it because
    either they want to watch it or can't be bothered reporting it (you may
    even have to have a n account to be able to report it).
