  While i believe this may have finished its run (certainly the first season, not sure if theres gonna be a follow up season) in the states, its only a few episodes in so far in the uk. Is anyone else watching the new time travel sci fi show 'Timeless'? A few episodes in, while i dont consider this to be top drawer entertainment, this certainly is'nt gonna trouble the big hitters, its entertaining enough scapism at this stage with solid performances from its leads. The show basically tells of a trio of individuals who are sent, on a weekly basis, to different periods in time to prevent some other individuals from purposely messing with history to alter the future in unimaginable ways. The are rumblings at this stage of conspiracies afoot. All this rolled into one is making for an entertaining enough weekly dose of escapism (even if it is feeling a smidge repetative). Am gonna stick with this and see where it heads.

  Yeah I've been watching it been really good so far. The only problem is how did it do in the states because even though it could have a strong following in the uk if in the USA it flops kiss it goodbye. So far I'd like to see a season 2

  Hey Dony. The show, now up to i believe , its 4th episode in the uk is shown on E4 (a sister channel of channel 4..although im guessing yu lready knew that lol). It airs on wednesdays at 9pm. I have no idea if its repeated or not though..you may want to look into that (or possibly some kind of catch up service etc..). Glad you are enjoyng the show Richard180. It certainly is harmless enough entertainment isnt it. That said though, while the episodic missions change each week, somehow it does feel very repetative (and given a reveal in the most recent episode, its safe to assumme thhat the makers are hoping its gonna keep going and going). spoiler..it was strange hearing old Sean Maguire put on a posh voice lol.

  yeah. there is nothing new in the world. i remember as a kid a show called 'timeslip' where 2 characters went back in time each week always to some momentus moment in histoy, it did also have the added benefit of being educational at the same time as being entertaining. something this show too has . i have yet to check it out but i suspect there is probably some truth that john wilkes booth saved the life of abraham lincoln#s son, if not it seems totally strange the way they shoehorned it in. but i was unaware of this before. i live anf learn.

  Id like to say that im retaining any and all historical facts that the show is presumably trying to teach us, at the same time as entertained..sadly, im not lol..just enjoying the show for the time travel based escapism that it is. Curious to see what this whole writenhouse business is all about and how our female heroine (nope, cant recall her name either) and our lead bad guy, Flynn (odd how i can recall the bad guys name haha).

  Hmm, ok, this weks episoode, for me was, well..a bit on the weak side. A straight forward episode, not overly complex that didnt extend much beyond turning up, chatting and trying to get the heck out. Didnt really exp[and on the consiracy side of things either. While the episode dealt with the battle of the alamo with some truly legendary figures in attendance, the battle wasnt all that grand and it all felt just so rushed and pointless. Hopefully this is just a blip.

  Hopefully you did manage to locate the already screened episodes, while the trips themselves largely seem to follow the whole 'Time period of the week' set up, the wrap around stop does require following from the beginning. Whilst the series started really well, over the last couple of episodes, some of the initial spark seems to have been lost. Thinking about this weeks episode, asides from learning more about a certain sinister organisation and a suprise reveal, the actual event in time that had to be contended with was pretty boring. Hope the show didnt run out of steam early on.
