SFX’s Facebook followers give their verdict on the time travel reboot

I switched off after the first episode I’m afraid. It just lacked that spark of oddness and originality the film had.

Mark Anderson

I saw the first episode and cannot bring myself to watch any more. There are so many TV shows and films about time travel that it has to have something

special to stand out. I just didn’t get that hooked from the off.

Mark Davies

Enjoyable but can’t help comparing with the original movie which is far better. The leads are not Bruce Willis or Brad Pitt for a start.

Robert William Graham

It’s a very different animal to the film. I’ve not spotted a particularly duff performance yet so that’s good. Although no one has noticed that everything done in the past is just fulfilling the future they already know. I guess they haven’t watched enough TV!

Tom Gray

I’m quite enjoying it. Well acted, decent characters and nicely plotted so far – I think they’re deploying Cole’s jumping around in time nicely. It’s done a good job of establishing itself as its own thing with its own identity and I’m glad I don’t find myself constantly comparing it to the film. In fact, I don’t ever really think about the film at all when I watch it.

Ed Prior

I love it. The way the story keeps moving makes me long for each new episode. Henrik Andersson

Started to lose interest after six episodes. Same happened with

Helix but I might just stick this one out. Stephen Doyle Still not sure. Tim Upton Terrible show. Mauricio Enrique Núñez
