Serienverfilmung der unkonventionellen Liebesgeschichte um einen Mann, der wegen eines seltenen genetischen Defekts durch die Zeit springt. Durch die unwillkürlichen Sprünge von Henry DeTamble (Theo James) weiß seine Ehefrau Clare Abshire (Rose Leslie) oft nicht, wann Henry plötzlich verschwindet, und ebenso wenig, wann und in welchem Zustand sie ihren Mann wiedersieht. Aber auch für Henry bringen die Sprünge Probleme: Er deckt ungewollt Geheimnisse auf, die ihm lieber verborgen geblieben wären.

Calling it a romance is almost misleading. I guess it is romantic to the right person. Because honestly, this whole thing just seems like a pedophile fantasy. Feels pretty gross. Oooh no it's all predestined. 28-42 year old me, who's already married to this girl is gonna time travel to the time and place where she is 7, I have no choice or control over it. Better get to the grooming so that I can fulfill the self fulfilling prophecy marriage. Because whatever I do I can't change it. Oh and every time I time travel I'm naked too sorry. All the arguments I've heard defending it like "he doesn't have a choice" etc. Is right up there with the anime "1000 year old god in a 10 year old body" excuse. I know it's adapted from the book. I haven't read it, and I don't know if they presented this whole thing as a romance or a tragedy( I guess that would improve things?) but as of now the only conclusion here is that all of it was a conscious choice. They *could* have made it at least relatively normal, instead of repeatedly having a grown naked man meet a child, who becomes increasingly horny for him with every interaction.
I started watching The Time Traveller's Wife last night. I loved the book and read it so many times i dogeared the copy I had.I hated the movie that came out some years back. Eric Bana and that Adams chick just didn't capture the characters for me. Theo James though... oh gosh, he is Henry. He's absolutely Henry. Rose Leslie is a good actress, and she's doing a good job, I am not sure I like her as Claire. I'm not sure why, but she's just not fitting the picture I made in my head about this woman with guts and long love. I can't fault her acting though, she's doing a great job. But it's Theo doing it for me. I honestly am yet to not like him in anything. I can't tell if I think he's pretty, or if he's a good actor or a bad actor. I just like watching him... he makes me believe every character I've seen him play. And say what, for me, he has definitely captured Henry's humor, his fear, his kindness, his ruthlessness, his wily cunningness, all of it... I particularly loved the scene with him and Rose Leslie [spoiler]in The Stacks where Henry introduces Claire to his mother[/spoiler]. Gosh... he totally sold me. I read a half and half kind of review from a big outlet a couple of weeks ago, and was very surprised someone attempted this story again, and was totally prepared for another wan attempt, but no... I am really liking this. This is definitely doing some justice to Niffenegger's beautiful love story.
Really enjoyed the first ep, just the right amount of funny, serious and interesting. Looking forward to more.
One of the best romantic series. The storyline is so magnetic. It keeps you hooked. All those moments in the show are so beautifully performed by actors and such a marvelously directed show. This show will definitely make you think about life. And I can assure one thing. Every time you will watch, you would come up with a new question in your mind waiting to be answered.
it's such a shame they cancelled
