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?
Thoroughly enjoy the show. A refreshing take on the time travel theme. Many shows don’t reach their stride until Season 2 so hopefully Timeless will continue on and get even better. This is one of the very few current shows that I watch.
I have given my opinion on this show time after time (no pun intended). I want this show back! Eveidently I’m not the only one. Who cares about the Voice?!*! Timeless was not just a show for the older generation. Young students are wanting to learn about history that each segmet featured. Come on NBC, get with the program! Again..no pun intended.
Love this show. Just watched the entire season this past weekend. Would love to see a Season 2!!!
Finally a good new show & it’s even educational!!! Since a lot of shows are ending I’ve been hoping and looking for a new show to love and this is it. Very Interesting premise with the time travel which also leaves the show open to literary go anywhere and do anything! Anything!! I like the core characters which is essential to a good show and they each have their own specific reasons for continuing what they are doing. Please NBC give this show a chance with a second season my family loves it!!!! We need shows that are interesting without… Read more »
PLEASE, PLEASE RENEW Timeless . I love this show.
I desperately need this show! Finally a tv show that has substance and meaning! I’m sooooo sick of these reality crap shows! Please do not cancel this show!
Please renew Timeless
Great characters and scripts
It would be missed
The best new show to come on tv in 3 years. If you like history,this show is a must . Does anybody remember Time Tunnel from the 60’s ?
I agree with you.
I’m not a history fan, but I like very much that show that shows us true history with a compelling sci-fi story.
And yes, I remember watching the Time Tunnel for the ’60. It was a great show too.
Please renew Timeless!! It is a really good show. what these television networks don’t seem to understand is that people may not be able to watch a show when it is on but they still enjoy the show very much.
Really liked this show was impressed that although there is violence no foul language or nudity in it. Praying they go for season 2.
PLEASE bring Timeless back!
Please keep Timeleas going.
The acid test for any good TV show is the question “do you care about the characters “? The actors have knocked it out of the park. Here’s hoping Timeless is renewed.
I love this series. DO NOT cancel it. It is the only Network show that my wife and I watch on a regular schedule. Keep it coming.
Please please continue Tineless, nice clean informative and suspenseful
most network tv is trash, finally something decent, give it another season. note this is the only network tv show i watch
