Timeless

[DJdish]

Not sure what NBC wants to do or if they think they have a strategy for the Monday time slot this show was in.

They have had several shows on this time slot that were on for just one season, and when they had successful shows on this time slot like Blacklist and Blindspot, with good same day ratings they sent them to another day, to the detriment in ratings of such shows, maybe thinking
that just by magic any show on this time slot would do great in ratings?

Pretty sure this was the only new show I watched this season. Not really motivated to try new stuff next season.

I think the reason why they cancelled it was because Riddenhouse was behind it. The show was telling too much truth and not enough science fiction.

Finally, an explanation that makes sense

Well, I´m glad because that way, Lucy is still alive, and she may end up in another show, another time, in the past or in the future.

They canceled it because there's still a lawsuit over the fact that they completely stole the entire story concept from a Spanish company. It's almost an exact duplicate, and the showrunners had access and a dvd of the Spanish series, so they don't have a leg to stand on and will lose.

Ok, so that is for real. I'm glad.

I guess anything can happen with this show, did Lucy or Flynn go back in time to change NBC's decision?

Lucy come back

Sure sounds like it!

Unfortunately we have to wait till the summer of 2018 to see it , if the article posted above was correct.

Glad it is returning although I do wonder about the new family-friendly direction. We'll see.

I tuned out after the first six episodes because of the constant pandering. Hopefully, they will get rid of the pilot that seemed to always yap about the treatment of black people in the past. That and they spent a lot of time going to time periods relating to the treatment of blacks. I'm just sick of hearing about it. CW's Legends of Tomorrow is much more interesting as a time-travel series and Jefferson ( Firestorm ), Kendra ( Hawkgirl - one season ), and Mari ( Vixen ) are actually cool characters.

Glad to hear they changed their minds and renewed it...but by mid-year 2018, most won't even remember it and will have moved on. Not terribly well thought-out schedule planning on the part of NBC...

I enjoyed the first season, I don't demand their sci-fi to be reasonable and accurate.

I love Lucy, I think she's just great, very natural, I remember the scene where she fell through the window, not exactly the dramatic entrance you would expect from the heroine of the show, but that's Lucy, and I like her just the way she is.

They must have heard that Mark Hamill and his family watched this show!

Or maybe they saw those pics and videos of Abigail Spencer. Not sure I understand why she did those.

Sounds like I'm missing something, I'll have to google to see those videos

google is your friend

A very good friend.

 

[DJdish]

yep, that's why I said I'd google it, but.....
upon googling abigail spencer videos, looked like it's about some not so family friendly videos, and since I'm at work, I shouldn't get distracted with that
