I'm the only one that reading Theseus thought about this: http://continuum.wikia.com/wiki/Julian_Randol http://continuum.wikia.com/wiki/Julian_Randol ?

  It crossed my mind yes, but the robotic mouse and the TV character were named after the Greek myth for different reasons: 1) Theseus escaped from the Minotaur's Labyrinth, hence a maze-running robot. 2) First paragraph of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theseus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theseus says: """Theseus was a founder-hero, like Perseus, Cadmus, or Heracles, all of whom battled and overcame foes that were identified with an archaic religious and social order.[2] As Heracles was the Dorian hero, Theseus was a founding hero, considered by Athenians as their own great reformer (...)""" Which meshes nicely with the Continuum character. Possibly for even more reasons, but I'm not super familiar with the Greek Theseus myth.
