Separate episodes page
[edit]I think a separate page with all the episodes should be included. The section is becoming very long in this page, and should have its own page. Ggdeputy (talk) 13:38, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
- Go ahead. The ratings are crap, and the second season is only ten episodes, so it's likely the end of the line for the show, so I doubt anyone else wants to put the effort in. ----Dr.Margi ✉ 19:01, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
- I think a "List of Timeless episodes" article would be reasonable. There's not a ton of consistency; some TV shows have a separate page for episodes, some for each individual season's episodes, and some include it all in the main article, without having a drastically different total number of episodes from Timeless. If the episode tables move to a different article, per MOS:TVPLOT we should replace the current "Premise" section with a roughly 200-word (100 per season) synopsis of the series as a whole. --DavidK93 (talk) 19:58, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
- I'd propose to wait and see. If there will be only the present two (short) seasons, then I see no need for a separate episodes page. Debresser (talk) 21:44, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
- The only thing that should lead us to split it off is WP:SPLIT. Pretty sure with just two seasons, including one that is quite short by network standards, we're not there yet. WP:OTHERSTUFF is definitely not a rationale for doing it. Many series have "list of..." articles created very prematurely owing to overzealous editors. We shouldn't be replicating their errors. —Joeyconnick (talk) 00:10, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
Similarities to another TV series
[edit]Isn't this just a rehash of Seven Days (TV series)? - 211.27.7.202 (talk) 12:59, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- Nope. Every time travel TV series has the same basic premise of time travel, but their plot points are different. - Areaseven (talk) 13:03, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- I think in Seven Days, you can only go back 7 days. No jumping forward to the starting point in future. Protagonist has to live through those 7 days while trying to change some of the events etc. --Guyver (talk) 11:49, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
Cast: recurring
[edit]Why do we have a character or two who aren't actually recurring characters listed here, like Lucy's sister? ZarhanFastfire (talk) 03:06, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
Finale
[edit]Is the little girl shown designing a machine at the end the granddaughter of the woman the team saved who gave birth? That woman's lineage was mentioned near the end of the show, so wondering if anyone caught the relationship, if any. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:24, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
- Not little. I thought it was Denise's daughter. Debresser (talk) 22:05, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks. Could be, but then she'd alert Denise at some point before proceeding with construction. They ended the series with that scene, so my reasoning was if it's the granddaughter of the rescued North Korean, who was talked about as just another average person in history, it would provide an unexpected plot twist. The teen's name was mentioned, but I didn't catch it and tie it into the names mentioned earlier. And discussing this here isn't a blog discussion, as the summary of the episode ends with no resolution of who the girl was and it seems it should fit in somehow (was she the girl at the science fair?). Randy Kryn (talk) 22:30, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
- She's the girl at the science fair Jiya and Rufus spoke too. Her designs were all early prototypes of the Mothership that they developed when they were prepping the pilot. ----Dr.Margi ✉ 00:37, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks. A better twist would have been the North Korean granddaughter. Randy Kryn (talk) 00:46, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
