Everything chatty and everyone sounding the same? If that's the case, I'm afraid I couldn't even give them a week's try. <BR/><BR/>When did we learn to talk in bullets? Strange, most normal conversations don't sound rapid fire at all. Maybe the writers of TV could try listening to real people talk for a change.K.M.

Is she the reason he's begun time traveling? Are there a community of travelers beyond the two of them?<BR/><BR/>Still, it's an intriguing enough premise for me to want to give it another few weeks at least, and I'm curious to see what they'll do with the second episode.Marilyn Branthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05303846770348840645noreply@blogger.com
