“We love the show, we just said, let’s figure out a way to bring it back,” Salke said. I hear the core group that worked on making the renewal possible at NBC included Greenblatt, Salke and head of current programming Vernon Sanders.
#Timeless tv show 2018 series
It’s extraordinarily well produced and deserved to come back.”īy Thursday morning, fans’ reaction to the cancellation of Timeless had reached fever pitch, with them rallying to save the show while Sony TV was trying to find a new home for the series on a cable or streaming network. We went back to the drawing board, with our partners at Sony, and we found a way to bring it back. “And then we woke up the next morning, heard the outcry (from fans). Here is what happened next as described by Greenblatt on the NBC upfronts call Sunday. Greenblatt and NBC Entertainment president Jennifer Salke were “heartbroken” when they delivered the news to creators Shawn Ryan and Eric Kripke on Wednesday afternoon, as Ryan noted. “There was a moment earlier in the week where we said, we have all these shows coming back, new shows.
When the network executives convened to discuss its 2017-18 lineup, the questions surrounding Timeless, considered a “borderline” series, were “Can it grow, and do we have place for it”, Greenblatt said. “We loved the show creatively hoping for it to have bigger numbers in the fall,” Greenblatt said on Sunday. However, when they saw the huge outcry from fans, in wake of the Timeless cancellation, both parties made it work. At first, the network and Sony could not agree, where money was concerned. Timeless, which stars Abigail Spencer, Matt Lanter, Malcolm Barrett, and Goran Visnjic, was considered a “borderline” show by NBC, because of its middling broadcast ratings. And guess what? The fans’ outcry inspired the Peacock Network to come to terms with Sony Pictures Television on Timeless, season two. Last week, NBC cancelled the Timeless TV show, and then on Saturday, reversed the decision and renewed the time travel drama for a second season.
