      Audience Member This series is very addictive and it as a super good plot twist. Loved it!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/24/24 Full Review Emporer G I really really know for a fact that any organization doing time travel would not team up people who ARE NOT INTEGRAL ON HISTORICAL ACCURACY cuz changing things is always The Prime Thing We DON'T Do! Making a team this way, completely makes this SyFy rather than Artistic Science Fiction. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/20/24 Full Review Nathan E a very engaging and fun show, even though it is impossible to sympathize with the goal of saving the abomination that is the US state. Keeps you glued to the screen Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/21/23 Full Review Sue J I discovered this show a couple of years ago on streaming and loved it. Recently watched it again and loved it the second time through, too. Highly recommend if you like well written, well acted, high concept action adventure with a time travel twist. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/09/23 Full Review Melissa S I just discoverd this show and I'm so sad that it was not renewed for a 3rd season. WOW! Great and intriguing stories with outstanding acting and interesting character development. LOVE THIS SHOW! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/11/23 Full Review Troy J Fantastic show. While it's made for TV the storyline is engaging. It's the relationships of the characters that build and make your appreciation of this underrated show also build. Sad they didn't make more. Kudos to a great cast lead by Abigail Spencer. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Hank Stuever Washington Post This is a TV show in an admirably old-fashioned sense of the word, with a tight, action-packed pilot episode that is casually fun and intriguing executed. Rated: B+ Jan 25, 2019 Full Review Wenlei Ma News.com.au Timeless is one of those high-concept shows that genre fans in particular will take to. Oct 28, 2016 Full Review Allison Shoemaker AV Club Well, Timeless may know when it exists, but it doesn't seem to know why. Rated: C+ Oct 4, 2016 Full Review Natalia Marcos El Pais (Spain) The series barely gets by thanks to its bet on adventure, entertainment and action. [Full Review in Spanish] Jul 10, 2018 Full Review Jade Budowski Decider This overhyped, flashy pilot doesn't hook viewers the way it should, which is a shame, because there are really interesting and exciting elements to the show, and the premise is certainly sustainable. Dec 20, 2017 Full Review Kevin Yeoman Screen Rant You want to keep watching partly because you're convinced the show will continue to mine new depths of silliness, but also because it's impressive how much it just doesn't care what you think.
