    Stretched plot, decent cast, interested in seeing where it goes, especially with the family connection and the brooding, creepy stalker. A little concerned with the H.G./Jane romance.

    Whilst it isn't the best time traveling show out there, I think it could be better, going more followed it time along with going more back in time, it is WAY better than Making History, it has plot and makes more seance. And it doesn't have the awful humour that people think Making History.

    Whilst it needs work, I'll have to say this is worth watching...

    The original movie worked because Wells was played as a man out of time and Steenburgen’s character longed for a gentleman while still wanting to be a modern woman. The new series doesn’t let that relationship ripen enough; so it ends up diving too quickly into violence and sci-fi fantasy to get its grounding.

    With Time After Time he’s struck a balance between honest emotional resonance and salacious violence. Strangely enough, this combination makes this midseason series more charming and enjoyable than one would expect.

    It’s based on the 1979 novel and movie and is more romantic fluff than thriller.
