    Great start to the season, perfect mix of humour, action, romance and danger. Theo James is a revelation and Rose Leslie is the perfect Clare.

    This show is my new obsession. The tone is very close to the book, but better, even. Moffat’s additions are brilliant — like Annette’s recording. Theo James and Rose Leslie have really impressed me. They’ve made me cry and laugh.

    Uma série que tem potencial para ser, talvez, um mistério divertido. Os atores são bem reconfortantes e podem nos mostrar uma atuação de mais divertida ou dramática. Ansioso pelo resto da temporada!

    Great acting! Fans of the book will really like this adaptation. Plenty of drama and a mind bending take on time travel where past and future influence each other in chicken/egg fashion. Some good humorous moments as well!
    But above all it’s a romance. I am emotionally invested in these characters from the start!

    The idea of different chronological variants of the same character wandering the same timeline would be a forbidden paradox in most time-travel tales. But The Time Traveler's Wife embraces it. Because highly emotional moments in his life act as a kind of magnet for Henry's temporal tumbles, there are certain moments—the awful ones, mostly, like the death of his mother—where there are as many as 20 versions of him looking on, all as dumbstruck with horror as they were the first time they witnessed it.

    It's an uneven watch, however, with some things working well (such as their domestic bickering) and others not so well.

    A tiresome and redundant series. The talent is good, including director David Nutter (“Game of Thrones”), writer-producer Steven Moffat (“Sherlock,” “Doctor Who”), and lead actors Rose Leslie and Theo James. But the result is unsatisfying.
