CBC Pre-Releases A Fall Series To Gem Two Months Early

If you were a fan of the CBC-TV time travel series "Plan B," you won't have to wait until it airs in October to see it. All six episodes of season two are now streaming for free on CBC's Gem site. You do have to sign up to see it (and turn your VPN to Canada!) but otherwise, there's no charge. 

Plan B

Meanwhile, the Corp. has released the calendar of its fall season offerings and their debut dates.

See them here.

Haven't seen Plan B but reading the episode descriptions it seems that every one involves this one police officer named Mia who travels back in time to stop a crime, only to have things backfire because she is changing the timeline.
Each and every episode outline is a variation on this.
I'd like to see the show and see if it is done well, but just the repetitious descriptions alone sound like it would not stand the test of "time."

Re: CBC Pre-Releases A Fall Series To Gem Two Months Early

I watched last year's series, which is based on a long running CBC French show. My complaint was there was too much story and not enough time travel. They went back twice if I'm not mistaken, and it happened so rarely that most of the episodes were just soap opera. It was a great idea poorly executed.

Not sure if I'll be back for season 2, even with a brand new cast.
