    I've watched the first episode and am watching the second one right now, and so far it looks very promising.

    It's a bit similar to Quantum Leap, though this show focus more about relationships between the hero (well, the one who's travelling through time).

    Usually there's very few TV shows that catch my interest; Heroes did, but there won't be any episodes in the near future. Prison Break was good, but after the first season was over, it became dull. I was watching Grey's Anatomy but it became annoying.

    And now... there's a new show. I decide to check it, and to my surprise, I watch the whole episode and immediatly begin downloading the second, third... well, there's only 13 so far.

    Anyway this show is centered on relationships (it's not sci-fi with BANGS BANGS BOOMS), marriages... how one's life can would change if he were to be thrown through times without any control over this; meeting again his ex (dead) girlfriend, trying to avoid paradoxes.

    Has anybody else seen it? What do you think?

    PS: I know the main actor has an ugly face, still it's good.

    I liked the show for the few episodes that I watched, but of those that I saw I couldn't tell exactly where the plot was headed. I could see the obvious strain on his marriage and his job, but besides that I couldn't tell if we were going to find out anything about why the hell he is being thrown through time. I will keep watching the show if they don't cancel it.

    Is that the show with the actor who plays Lucius Vorenus?

    It is.

    I've watched the first four episodes and it's great so far. Though, 'tachyons' can't make you travel time; if people can't transform themselves into photons and travel at light speed, neither can they transform into tachyons. It's too much overused in scifi series to make people go through time.

    I've been watching the show since the beginning, so I was a little bit upset to learn that NBC had decided to not renew the show due to the fact it hasn't been doing good in the ratings. But I have also heard that SciFi has a interest in picking the show up, so there still might be hope for the show continuing.

    Hated it. The plot was lame, characters were bad, and I found myself wishing for the end the more I watched it. It took a cool idea and just killed it.
