NBC Uncancels Time Travel Drama 'Timeless' After Fan Reaction
The network has now renewed 'Timeless' for a shortened 10-episode second season that will air either in Spring or Summer 2018. "Huge thanks to NBC for supporting us. And THANKS for the fan support. It's a MAJOR reason we're back. It worked, guys!," creators Eric Kripke and Shawn Ryan announced on Twitter. The time travel series stars Abigail Spencer, Matt Lanter and Malcolm Barrett as time travelers whose aim is to protect history. 'Timeless' had been a favorite for family viewing given its themes and good-natured banter. NBC is hoping to capitalize on this by moving it to an earlier timeslot instead of 10 PM, where it completed its first season, upon its return. NBC has altered history and reversed course on its decision to cancel 'Timeless'.
