Although the clock is ticking, NBC still has not announced whether Eric Kripke and Shawn Ryan’s Timeless is cancelled or renewed for season three. The Timeless fanbase, which often self-identifies online as #Clockblockers, has been campaigning hard for a season three renewal, despite the TV show’s low ratings in the second season. That season only happened thanks to the fans. When NBC cancelled Timeless, after its freshman outing, there was such an outcry that the network then reversed itself and renewed the series.
Today, knowing the fans feel as bloodied and battered as Wyatt (Matt Lanter), Lucy (Abigail Spencer), and Flynn (Goran Višnjić) look in the above photo, the writers acknowledged the long wait on their official Twitter account. They also made sure to thank fans for their hard push for a third season pick up. Check out their messages, below.
An NBC time-travel drama, Timeless also stars Malcolm Barrett, Paterson Joseph, Sakina Jaffrey, and Claudia Doumit. As the Time Team, their mission is to prevent the destruction of our world as we know it. Susanna Thompson, Annie Wersching, and Michael Rady recur in season two as members of the nemesis organization, Rittenhouse.
Timeless Writers Address the Wait for Cancellation or Renewal News
UPDATE: We know it's frustrating to our fans to not have an answer yet re: #RenewTimeless. We've been led to believe a couple times that an answer was imminent only to have answer pushed. Unsure if that's good/bad. Just know we're fighting hard for #Timeless.

What do you think? Are you getting anxious about the cancellation/renewal chances for a third season of the Timeless TV series? Sound off, in the comments.
It would be an absolute shame if this wonderful show were cancelled while so many silly stupid shows are being renewed. PLEASE keep this show on the air.
Still no decision? Really? If NBC isn’t making money on this show, why would you bring it back?
I hope we hear good news for this TV show! I love this show, please Renew timeless NBC this is one of the best TV shows i have ever watched on TV❤ #Renewtimeless
Timeless is the best show on tv for a very long time. It tells about history and brings families together. I love this show so much. Please renew Timeless. The actors and the characters and story line are the best. The actors are all great
Timeless is the best show on tv for a very long time. It tells about history and brings families together. I love this show so much. Please renew Timeless. The actors and the characters and story line are the best. The actors are all great together and all have a chemistry together. I love the Time Team Including Flynn and Jiya. Please keep this on a few more years. Give it a good day and time and you will see it grow.
I looked at the NBC Twitter this morning and they already announced their lineup and timeless isn’t on it. I hope another network picks it up because it looks like NBC has already made their decision. I love timeless. I think the actors do an awesome job and it’s so different from any other show.
@NBC Please renew #Timeless for a Third Season. It should be a no-brainer for the renewal, but you all cannot make a decision that is right for the #ClockBlocker fans if your life depended on it. #RenewTimeless
Plz plz make a season 3,got to know what happens next
Timeless is one of the best written shows today. Not only the storylines but the characters themselves. I NEVER speak up on behalf of a TV series but Timeless is the exception to the rim for me. It is a truly terrific show and my husband and I love it. PLEASE DON’T CANCEL THIS SHOW!!!!!
Timeless is one of the best shows on television and we are anxious to find out that it has been renewed!
How much did Mother’s Day effect ratings? You would think they’d take that in consideration.
Please NBC pick it back up for a third season. I am so intrigued by the way season 2 ended. The future stories would be so interesting. If the peacock doesn’t want it then Netflix I hope you are watching and you are ready to take it on.
I can only hope it is taking this long because if NBC isn’t picking it up another network is looking to.
Netflix should pick it up and do a 12-13 episode season 3. Timeless is a great show and it’s going to be a cult classic in the years to come like Star Trek and lost in space did when they were cancelled prematurely.
Screw Netflix..everyone always screaming for it.
Please renew timeless, I love the show. I love seeing what year they are going to go each week.
