Telly’s Take
For whatever reason, the networks seem to be fixated on time travel this season. Fortunately for Timeless, it was the first to air. It also didn’t hurt that the peacock network scheduled it to follow their most popular series, The Voice. Timeless had a positive start. Unfortunately, the ratings have been falling quite rapidly. Though it’s been hyped as a hit, Timeless is no Blacklist. It’s also not a cheap series to produce (lots of new costumes and sets each week). Unless the numbers miraculously get better (where’s a time machine when you need it?), I think time is short for Timeless. The television vulture has reason to watch this one closely.

What do you think? Are you glad that the Timeless TV show has been renewed for a second season? Would you have been upset if this series had stayed cancelled?
Love the show can’t wait for next season.
Unfortunately, Timeless is not some vapid stupidity like the Kardasuans or housewives from (fill in the blank) so much of the viewing public does not recognise Timeless as hinest to goodness, scripted enjoyment, their loss. If Timeless is to have only one season, please allow the show to wrap up the story lines. NBC is notorious for starting and never finishing shows.
Really like this show. One of fee things on tv that I eat h consistently.. Please give a second season.

We really enjoy watching this show and hope that NBC keeps it. It’s a great way of learning a little history. Don’t cancel!
This show is really a great way to learn about history. I share clips with my students when discussing a particular era in history.
Please do not cancel this show! My husband and I watch it every week. It has a great story line, and love the historic stories. The show has great actors. Our please keep it for another season.

Love this show!! Please renew for more seasons!
This show just keeps getting better and better. Please let us have season 2. Our family LOVE this show. My mother 68, son 24, my daughter 11, husband 54 and myself 48. As you can see its a broad spectrum demographic.
Love it! Can’t wait to see what happens!
I love it. Good writing pretty good on history with an engaging cast and good character development. The Lincoln show was interesting in that I did not know there were so many theories.
Totally hooked on Timeless!! Keep it coming!

Little history, little mystery, little adventure and a lot of fun to watch
Love it!!!
