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?
My husband and I love this show, would be disappointed if it got cancelled
My husband and I love the show. Cannot wait for the next new show to air. We would miss this show a lot. Love time travel and the history involved.
this has been one of the shows that I have enjoyed the most on. It is well written and the stories draw you in each week. I’m not in the “18-49” age group, so my opinion isn’t worth much to the network. I do hope that this show is renewed.
Please RENEW! Estonia and Russia are waiting impatiently !! In russia, the episodes are translated within 24h and are present in at least 12 different internet chanels. There’s more auditory worldwide than it may seem. Please renew!!
Pleeeaaaseeee let there be a season 2!!!!
Please please please do NOT cancel this show. The only one that kept our interest all season!
I lovve this show!! I don’t have cable, I have hulu (like many others I’m sure) so I can’t watch it “live” but I watch it as soon as the new episode pops up on hulu!!… Isn’t there a way to see that people watch it on there too!?? There HAS TO BE A SEASON 2 you can’t end a show like that, leaving the fans wondering!? Seems to me like it’s only going to get better now, give it a real chance at least and make a few episodes for the fans then go from there!
Timeless is consistently well written. The plot development has been so creative. Just when I thought I had something figured out and knew the direction it would go , surprise,! It threw me a curve ball better than what I’d come up with. The character development and relationships between them is very satisfying. Flynn continues to draw us in. He’s the villain , but we love and understand what’s motivating him. That makes us care about him and on one level , we want him to succeed. That, I think is what gives a character welcomed longevity in a series.… Read more »
Timeless is a great show, great stories and acting. Please be there a 2nd Season.
So enjoy Timeless. Please renew for a 2nd Season. Great acting and stories.
hi from the uk love timeless please renew for season 2
hi from the uk love timeless please renew for second season
Please don’t cancel Timeless. Going back in history every week is so entertaining and educational.
I was not initially impressed with Timeless, the cast did not pull me in and the leaps in logic and cheesy sets/dialogue made me want to watch something else. Nevertheless I stuck with it and the cast has grown on me over the weeks. Abigail Spencer’s acting improved as time went by. Goran Visnjic is quite a surprise, he seems way too good for this series, I think he is destined for greater things. Please give the show a chance with a Season 2 and improve it’s quality.
Please keep this show! I love it and can’t wait to see what happens!! Please don’t cancel!!!!!
