* Present Continuous: seeming (I am seeming, you are seeming, he/she/it is seeming, etc.)

* Present Perfect: have seemed (I have seemed, you have seemed, he/she/it has seemed, etc.)

* Present Perfect Continuous: have been seeming (I have been seeming, you have been seeming, etc.)

* Past Perfect: had seemed (I had seemed, you had seemed, he/she/it had seemed, etc.)

* Past Perfect Continuous: had been seeming (I had been seeming, you had been seeming, etc.)
