I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Too much of everything

the audience applauded

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

This could have been a great series and I don't understand why they didn't pursue it. With "Quantum Leap" what kept the viewer so engaged was a different venue every time with familiar characters. I really liked this pilot, and I think it's abandonment was a waste of a really very good idea.This one and QL also brought an education to viewers about culture in different times. So interesting, and such a waste to scrap this one.The concept will be brought back at some point, and it will be a popular money-maker.

I had set my DVR to record the series not knowing it was a one shot deal. If they knew this up front, it was one lousy and confusing ending. A madman had killed over nine million people with a nuclear bomb in New York and using an untested top secret project three people go back some 54 years to set the man on the right path thus saving New York. They make it back with seconds to spare and everything seems okay until a military officer overseeing the project steps thru the time stream to an unknown time or location. THE END. COME ON. Where did he go and what did he do? The ending sucked. This show had a new concept of time travel at most, a little of Continuum in it but it has promise. I guess fictitious wrestling, game shows and chasing ghosts are more cost effective. Welcome to brain dead, cheap, mindless and modern TV. Our Syfy (Sci-Fi) channel has lost it's way with less than half a dozen true science fiction shows on now and not a single new space series on. Please give us something worth watching.

While I understand it is quite difficult to create a plausible sci-fi story, especially when it involves time travel, this show's plot holes were just ridiculous. The "time machine" itself, communication with the present, the explanation and simulation of the ripple effect, or practically any line of dialogue, that is relevant to the physics or logic of the time travel enterprise in this show, is just ridiculous. I found myself cringing, trying to find meaning or sense in the characters' conversations, only to come to the conclusion, that the producers put no effort into making any of the story plausible to a moderately intelligent human being. The camera is decent and the acting isn't awful, considering the terrible script. The story is one that we've seen many times before. Overall judging by the pilot, I would not recommend this show. It's downright insulting to any fan of Donnie Darko or Butterfly Effect and honestly even Hot Tub Time Machine shows time travel with more sense.

This is a tale already better told by other shows like Time Tunnel, 7 Days, Eureka, Star Trek's "The City on the Edge of Forever" and the classic novel "The End of Eternity" by Issac Asimov. The basic plot is to go back and change the past in order to change the future. The contradictions in the story are tedious and the plot twists gratuitous. The time travel device is unstable and random, so the 'window' opens for a short time and random location that just happens to give an opportunity to make the major change in the present by killing somebody that kills somebody else that causes the present day bad guy to do what he did, which he does to cause the intervention in the past so he doesn't do what he did, which he did because he doesn't like how events naturally unfold in his life, which if changed he will not know to cause the intervention... this is the classic grandfather paradox we other time travelers know is a loop in time that destroys itself so it never happens. The good guys quickly come up with a poorly thought out plan as the clock ticks down, and they just happen to have the period costumes, maps, old license plate records and obscure biographies to lurch through their mission, with suicide pills in case they don't make it back, since their mere presence in the past will have unpredictable results, (unless they become even more disruptive unidentified corpses), while home base has a magic predictor machine that instantly guesses what will happen. Of course, cold blooded murder is avoided at the end by changing the twice removed bad guy from a career criminal and murderer into a war hero, and saving his sister from dying to boot, which will cause even more disruption by inserting a dead person into the new timeline. The pilot ends with a paradoxical cliffhanger as the maniacal military man comes completely prepared for the random switch to another window and he steps into the past to cause some major change in history. I'm only guessing, but he probably shoots Hitler... or maybe his own grandfather. Tune in to the next episode as our heroes,magically protected by the unstable time portal from the effects of any changes in history,save the day with luck, guts and good looks. No stars for a badly written story and cliché acting.
