Time After Time

I'm left scratching my head at the negative reviews this series has attracted. Maybe its mostly H.G. Wells purists, who don't like adaptations of his work?

Indeed, to be fair, there have been some horrible adaptations, of Wells stories. Thankfully, this is not one of them. Certainly, it by no means adhere's to the facts of Well's life or strictly speaking his stories as written but so what?

The fact is this is a well made series that's a mix of thriller and sci fi action. Viewed from this perspective its extremely enjoyable. The characterizations have depth, the sci fi elements meld into a Wells- ian centric universe and the action is well paced and enjoyable. I especially like how the series writers have creatively blended elements of H.G. Wells life and literature and the Jack The Ripper murder mystery.

Sure its a far fetched yarn but its still engaging stuff.I really like this series and plan to keep watching. Seven out of ten from me.

Sorry to hear about it's demise. Refreshing and informative. Good acting, well rounded cast and the writing is very good. Want it to stay on the air. Can't finally watch something entertaining rather than controversial? For a change - give us something rather than quickly taking it away.

I love good sci-fi adventures and enjoyed watching Time after time. For one reason or another the networks keep canceling sci-fi series after only a few episodes have been aired. This one lasted 5 episodes in the States.

Spain and Portugal's networks thought differently and aired all 12 episodes made. I was fortunately able to see the remaining episodes too. I consider this series above average of its genre and thank these European networks for airing them. The producers of the series also had more than one season in mind and the final episode ended with a cliffhanger.

Which network has the heart to take up the gap and have more seasons made? Sci-fi supporters will thank them from the bottom of their hearts!

If your someone who appreciates Jack the Ripper shows/movies; but also someone for who, the thought of time travel isn't so far fetched; I have a hard time imagining you wouldn't like this show. Those are no spoilers, it's legit the point of the show to it's very core without specifics.

As far as these low reviews? I mean I wouldn't watch a werewolf movie and give it a 1 because I don't like werewolves. We have to have a clue about these things and what we are going to watch. Otherwise someone should include in their review about maybe an old western that they hate old westerns before handing out a 1. I've seen some bad shows, for people to give this show such a poor rating is sad and I'm curious what makes their brain tick. I'm wondering if they know it's a show about time travel to a point with character we know about, what could the problem with plot be? Ok Hitchcock, your so much more qualified than a department at a major studio lmao who've had success at supreme level. Does that mean you have to like everything, no. But cmon, don't complain about the plot of this show when anyone with a clue understands the made complete and total sense. Don't psycho-analyze everything Freud. Or you will never be able to sit back and enjoy any show

Yes we are all different, but the show proved fantastic for what it was intended to be. It's a shame it never got a chance to get to far in depth or allow plot to develop but the show itself was great and the plot was so incredible it's unbelievable.

I've not seen the original movie, but with my love of history I really enjoyed the two hour premiere. Of course, that generally means (and judging by all of the horrible reviews here) that it will be another short lived show. Like many others, I've held a fascination with Jack the Ripper and am interested to see the story line. H G Wells, was clearly a man ahead of his time, and I think that they will do well with this character. Please give it a chance and stop being so negative all at once. Its refreshing to see something other than a political or hospital drama!!
