NBC is sticking with Timeless. Today, the network announced they’ve ordered additional episodes of the new TV series.
The action-adventure drama follows a history professor, a soldier, and a scientist as they travel through time to stop a mysterious criminal. The cast includes Abigail Spencer, Matt Lanter, Malcolm Barrett, Goran Visnjic, and Paterson Joseph.
So far, Timeless has performed well in the ratings, earning an average of 1.43 in the 18-49 demo and 6.093 million viewers. Because of the show’s success, NBC has upped its season one episode count to 16.
From NBC Entertainment President Jennifer Salke:
Timeless’ is a phenomenal new show that takes the audience emotionally to a completely different place and time each week. We’re thrilled to be ordering additional episodes so that we can run the final six hours of the season in a row with no pre-emptions after the new year. Our hats are off to Eric Kripke and Shawn Ryan for producing one of the most ambitious new shows anywhere on television.”
What do you think? Are you watching Timeless? Are you glad there will be more episodes?
Love this show
So happy you are renew7ing Timeless! I’ve been telling all my friends to watch. Wish it was on earlier as I know audiences would love the action/adventure rather than the insipid silly sitcoms! Hats off to you!!
NBC had no business doing this. The ratings for the show already much WORSE than Blindspot had at this point last season. While it did a 1.2 in the 18-49 range last week, there is ZERO reason to believe that it will get any better. The ratings will continue to drop and it’s a horribly written show. It has ZERO business of being renewed.
Love Timeless!! Finally, great & good family show!
Love this show! It is a great family friendly show to watch! Please keep it!
As a history person, this show captures the imagination of all who ask, “What was it like back then?”
What great show! This is a super fun, thoughtful, and smart hour of television. Please don’t cancel!
I so missed my Mondays favorite TV show Timeless, it is a timeless hit with me I love the story line and the unknown of the butterfly effect on time travel don’t let me be let hanging
I love this show! I also am afraid to get attached. Please don’t get rid of it!
I really enjoy this show, but am afraid to get too attached to it. NBC has a habit of axing programs that aren’t reality junk or some Chicago drama.
Love this show!!!
LOVE the show! Keep it! More seasons!
The show is starting to pull things together, but it does seem to be standing on shaky ground with many plot holes. One would think with a time machine you would have the ability to always be on time or simply get there in advance. They always know “when” their quarry arrives, but persist in showing up “afterwards”. Since they can move two people plus a pilot at any one time, ferry in a strike force two-by-two and have a surprise party waiting for The Bad Guys to arrive. Guessing the writers will start filling in the plot holes if… Read more »
Interesting premise, but that’s the best part. I still find the acting and plot suspect. If the antagonist wanted to destroy this horrible syndicate, why not go back in time and bump off the people responsible for setting it up when they were younger or some upstream relatives? Changing the history of the Alamo or Nazi Germany would have much wider percussions than only destroying this syndicate. This leaping in time makes me yearn for Quantum Leap.
A great show. Does anyone remember ‘The Time Tunnel’ from the 1960s? It’s very similar.
I immediately thought of The Time Tunnel the first time I watched Timeless. I was surprised, when I looked it up on IMDB, that it was just on for one season. I haven’t watched The Time Tunnel in probably 40 years but I am planning to watch it again.
