Been sort of watching this and enjoying the links to the past, but have to say I have no idea what is really going on! Can anyone give me a run down of what its really about?

Very brief outline.

Looks like I have linked to the wrong series - ooops.

[lankeela]

Just had a read of the link and it makes a lot more sense now! I could not understand why, if Flynn was such a baddie they did not just kill him. Realise now its all linked to each of them getting back the people they loved. Clever and easy watching.

I was looking at the ratings and I`ll be surprised if they give it a second series even though it was improving.

[Arksided]

To be honest I give shows like this a fair bat but lost interest after episode three. Looking forward to the 100 returning... mmm octavia... Shhh a guilty pleasure.

Its ok as long as you don't question too much - where do they get the clothes - why does nobody find the time machine when they leave it - does it have a toilet onboard.........

[Islay]

Lakeela, they have a complete wardrobe department at base, they don't need a toilet because they are only in if for minutes whilst it jumps the temporal time jumps. I think someone did find it in the civil war episode and they had to kill them!

Where do they stay then when they arrive somewhere? They are there for more than a day, but never seem to have a suitcase or any luggage and never seem to book into a hotel.
