I just saw an ad for a new show in the fall called Journeyman...the lead is the main guy from Rome, I think his name was Vorenus.

It looked kind of interesting, involving time travel. Anyone heard anything about this? I'm so ready for fall with the new batch of TV shows, as well as my old favorites. I'm so tired in the evening that I find it hard to read, but I love vegging out in front of a good show. What new shows are you looking forward to this fall?

dh and I caught part of this on monday, wow, what a great show! I'm happy they're replaying the episode on saturday, I really liked what little I saw. I'm interested in watching the whole thing. Of course, that means I'll be hooked on another tv show!

It's a pretty good show. And I like that it takes place in San Francisco, since I grew up there. Like when he was there in 1989, I thought, Oh, the earthquake. I remember the earthquake. I think more than 57 people died in it, though. I think it was over 70.

Dh likes it and I watch it with him. It's pretty interesting. I decided it's as though "Quantum Leap" married The Time Traveler's Wife and had a baby.

I started watching this show almost entirely because of Kevin McKidd (Lucius Vorenus on Rome), but now it is really starting to grow on me. I particularly liked last night's episode. The previews for next week kind of creeped me out though - the part where he time travels and leaves his son alone. :

Interesting show if a bit slow at times. I like the characters and love the concept.

Re next weeks show: If he's prone to "traveling" at a seconds notice without warning being the lone adult with the kid seems super dumb. His wife is gonna be so ticked lol.

I really do not like the the wife. I can't pinpoint if it is the actress or how the character is written.

I really do like the episodes I have seen so far. A little slow, but I'm hoping it picks up more.

I told dh the same thing! I said what mother in their right mind leaves their 5 year old (I'm thinking the kid is 5) with an unreliable adult? He might be a great dad, but let's face it, with the time traveling he's not the most reliable guy!

I have been watching with the hope that it will turn into a good show.

I love Kevin McKidd - but I wish he would just travel back waaayyy back in time .....













All the way to Rome.

I enjoyed last night's episode. I was glad to see the son was not actually alone with his father at the street fair. I kind of like the wife, but Olivia really gets on my nerves. I can't imagine what Dan sees in her.

I thought it was really sweet when the little boy said he saw and thought it was cool and when Dan asked what he saw his son said, "Your magic."

I'm really loving this show. My favorite part is the time specific music they play. Lots of good songs.

I like this show too. I missed last night's episode, power went out, and have recorded but not yet watched the week before that. It's weird that Livia time travelled as a child, stopped and then started again. i wonder why.

I enjoyed last night's episode. I like that they developed the relationship between the brothers more. Livia continues to really irritate me. At least she wasn't in this one too much. I'm settling into the show so I'm no longer "giving it one or two more episodes" and it's just one of the shows I watch now. Not my favorite, but not one I question why I'm still watching either.

This is one of a few shows that DP and I are addicted to now. I really like it.

Livia gets on my nerves a bit, though. I wish she would stop stalking him and just tell us all what the heck she's doing

I haven't watched this weeks show yet, it's at home on the DVR...... alone with DP..... hmmm. he's totally watching it right now without me, I just know it. :
