The team might get another trip in the Lifeboat. After NBC cancelled their Timeless TV show, yesterday, creators Eric Kripke and Shawn Ryan indicated that Sony will like shop season two of the time travel drama around.
Kripke and Ryan weren’t the only Timeless vets responding to the cancellation on social media. Stars Matt Lanter, Abigail Spencer, and Malcolm Barrett also shared their thoughts about Timeless being cancelled after one season on NBC. The series also stars Goran Visnjic, Paterson Joseph, Sakina Jaffrey, and Claudia Doumit.
Timeless Cancelled; No Season Two: Creators and Cast React
Its true. NBC canceled #Timeless. We're surprised & upset. Get you a longer response later. Odds are long, but trying to find another home.

1. Learned a lot about TV biz in last few days. A lot of things to argue for a #Timeless renewal but $$$ flows in mysterious ways in tv now.

2. As @therealKripke mentioned, Sony will look for another outlet. Don't know the viability of that, but know there's intense fan love.

While it sounds like there is a chance at renewal, they don’t sound overly optimistic. Meanwhile, Lantner and Spencer tried to keep positive in their responses to the cancellation.
Barrett, on the other hand, let it all hang out, while posting this video reaction.
The first season of Timeless averaged a 1.10 rating in the 18-49 demographic and drew an average total audience of 4.62 million viewers. Those numbers could still be appealing to a smaller network or streaming service.
What do you think? Did you watch the first season of the Timeless TV series? Should NBC have cancelled or renewed it for a second season? Do you think another network or streaming service will order Timeless, season two?
5/13 update: NBC has reversed their decision and has renewed Timeless for a second season. Details here.
