I’m extremely happy to report that the Timeless finale is every bit as good as fans want it to be. Also starring Abigail Spencer, Matt Lanter, Goran Višnjic, Sakina Jaffrey, Paterson Joseph and Claudia Doumit. Stuck with no way out, our team faces its toughest challenge yet, and in the process, come to terms with their feelings for each other. Then chasing the Mothership to Korea in the winter of 1950, our team helps a stranded, pregnant refugee attempt to escape a tragic fate. But when the Mothership jumps to 1848 California, they’re forced to put those plans on hold and chase Rittenhouse back to the Gold Rush, where they encounter one of the era’s most dangerous villains. Showalter)Īs Christmas arrives in the Bunker, the Time Team is inspired by a visit from their future selves to find a way to try to save Rufus (Malcolm Barrett). (Note: This review will be SPOILER-FREE!)Įpisodes 211 and 212: The Miracle of Christmas (Part 1 written by Lauren Greer, Part 2 written by Arika Lisanne Mittman directed by John F. This movie-length finale manages to deliver most of the answers fans are craving while also providing an extremely entertaining and well-written two-hours of television. But that’s exactly what the cast and crew of NBC’s Timeless have managed to do with their 90-minute series finale The Miracle of Christmas. Especially when you were prematurely canceled after your second season finale featured a cliffhanger so big it couldn’t possibly be satisfyingly resolved in a 90-minute film. This series needs a lot more clever writing than this.Nailing a series finale isn’t an easy task. They would had million ways to destroy Lucy and Wyatt and everyone. I just cannot get over with why Rittenhouse was so stupid in this season. And those plot holes! Jeez! For instance, why did they reveal every sleeper agent by travelling mothership right when they activated them? Why not go back 5 years and give sleepers orders to assassinate someone years later? It would be impossible to track down sleepers and stop them. Like it seems to impossible to shoot Emma over 2 meter distance ( even by trained soldier). Not a great show or "a masterpiece" like reviews here are calling it, but mediocre scifi, with a lot of plot armour with characters. I almost gave up on the show in about middle of the season, but endured to the end. It's cheaper to chat about feelings than make interesting time traveling. Maybe this is also reason why story involved a lot of soap opera type love interest drama. There was only one really wide angle shot in this seasons (first episode) all other episodes have been using really tightly boxed in shots and recycled, cheap sets. On the whole, it seems that Timeless have had serious budget cutbacks this season. Final thought, we all know the show was cancelled last year, then brought back, and now there's a huge possibility of a third season renewal, hence, i'd really like to meet that guy who made them believe that there is a chance to take in this project and thank him face to face. i mean things here are "timeless" so who knows !! The cast was also here more engaging, they were all just the perfect team of time travelers and almost in all the episodes with presenting a new story they felt like they'v been doing this forever. Seriously his banter and short comic answers just made the show looks much more attractive, and even making him right there part of the love triangle with Lucy and Wayyat was good planning, I'm actually rooting for him to end up with Lucy, other than having my own theory that Lucy is actually his wife. The plot stayed strong, Adding Flynn to the mix and making him well a bit lovable was in my opinion the best choice the writers ever done, like probably ever :D The plot of Rittenhouse kept on thickening till it exploded in the finally. each and every episode had it's rightful well calculated time of Action, Drama and Comedy. I mean the first season was okay and it had a couple of exciting moments, but this one in here a 10 hours connected masterpiece. To cut right to the chase, I unexpectedly loved this season much more than i did the first one.
