I enjoyed the finale and it was good that they green lighted that so the story could be wrapped up.
This show could have been a masterpiece - it shows that talent does in fact exist to make a good storyline. It’s unfortunate they chose to hijack their own creation at times and inserted their left-wing social and political agenda into the mix rather than just telling a good story to entertain the audience - they probably don’t get why the ratings were mediocre because they alienated a significant portion of the potential audience and others just didn’t like the storyline being watered down for irrelevant stuff that had nothing to do with advancing the storyline.
While this is a show I overall enjoyed watching through once, I probably won’t be looking for to watch in re-runs in the future and definitely won’t be buying a DVD or Blu-Ray set...it could have been that good, but alas they just could not help themselves. One of the reasons I’ve started watching K-dramas in addition to watching older school stuff (like on H&I, MeTV, etc.) where this SJW nonsense isn’t present.
In any event, if you liked the time-travel aspect of Timeless, you might really enjoy the K-dramas “Signal” and “Tunnel” which are available free on a smart TV app called “viki” or you can just watch them from your computer at the viki website. Of course you have to watch with subtitles due to the language being Korean, but once you get into the storyline you don’t think about that being what you are doing. And there’s no SJW junk thrown in which is nice. They just focus on telling a good story.
I watched the final show and it was mostly free of their PS crap. I thought the ending was good were everyone lived happily ever after. I also liked the truth of NK civilians trying to escape the brutal Nork and Chinese Armies.
It was a well crafted episode and a good ending to the series.
The only part I didn’t like was Lucy at the end telling her student she “didn’t have time” to get to any male historical figures.
And the complete 100% heroization Flynn doesn’t make much sense to me, dude shot Lincoln.
My favorite part of the show was history changing in minor ways (Lincoln shot by mystery assassin (Flynn) New Bond movie with hot 60’s brunette undoubtedly playing Lucy).
Overall the “PC” wasn’t a huge deal to me. People were upset about the episode where they stopped the dyke boss from being pressured into a hetero marriage. Was I supposed to be rooting for some poor guy getting saddled with a lesbo wife?
