Les Voyageurs du Temps

After watching some time travel shows I find "Travelrs" to be one of the better ones. No aliens, no time travel machine. Just a well-written plot that one can actually follow & Characters that I really like & believe in. I'm not an expert in this genre for sure but I definitely enjoyed the show.

Clicked on this randomly because I was out of things to watch on Netflix and the description was interesting, pretty sure I would quit after the first episode.

BOY was I wrong. Hooked me right out of the gate with it's quirky premise and promise of a rich backstory, the acting was great and the writing was tight. Best off, over the first season run, it was NEVER predictable and always had me guessing.

I'd describe it as 12 Monkeys meets Fringe with a Stargate attitude. If those are things you like, you're in for a treat!

Travelers really is such an entertaining show, it sucks that it was cancelled early! I can't complain too much because I never watched it when it was on and just now finished it. There are plenty of time travel shows to choose from but this is among the better ones! As you can tell by the reviews most people who've actually seen more than 15mins have really liked it!

If you breeze on by this one, you will miss something.

Canuck Sci-fi veteran Brad Wright (Stargate) seems to have teamed up with Canadian actor/producer Eric McCormack to bring us one of the tightest and leanest shows I have seen in quite some time.

The concept is a joy. Wright has taken the notion of "walk-ins" (something that was hugely popular in the 1970s and then disappeared) and updated it to a more modern, edgy, arc for this series.

The writing is so tight you could use it to re-skin a drum.

Unfortunately, so is the budget. The budget is so lean that you almost expect the TV to turn itself off the moment the show ends. To save power.

The opener hooked me -- solid acting, direction, really neat characters you can care about -- and I can happily put up with sparse location shoots in return for an interesting show. (As for example in the classic Canadian series Witchblade, which also got the most output from the least input.)

Intrigued, happy, optimistic. Hopefully this show will find an audience.

Travelers not only met my expectations but surpassed them in every way. I know people like to throw the word "underrated " around on so many shows and movies but this show is the definition of underrated. Even though there are some flaws it is still entertaining and fast moving enough where the good far outweighs the bad. It's a show that's never predictable and before you know it you will become addicted to it. It's hard to get a fresh take on the time traveling genre but Traveled seems to do it. Once I started watching I couldn't stop. It's very addictive once you start watching it and will want to binge it as quickly as possible.
