    TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
    Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
    WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
    Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
    gridoon2018 "Journeyman" is a good time-traveling show that was cancelled before it had the chance to develop into a (potentially) very good time-traveling show. Once the initial premise has been established, most of the early episodes tell pretty self-contained stories that sometimes play like a softer, safer version of the also prematurely cancelled TV show "Tru Calling". But around the middle of the season the episodes start getting stronger, seriously dealing with the physical, emotional, technological, paradoxological complications of time traveling, with a couple of deliberately disorienting twists (like when the hero finds his son replaced by a daughter!). Ultimately, the show was cancelled just when it was truly finding its footing; it's still worth seeing, but you can't help but wonder "what might have been". *** out of 4.
    jenmatsui A cliché-ridden snooze fest made worse by an unappealing cast of aging underwear models. This series should have been canceled after one episode. How it ever expanded into a full season is more mind boggling than its absurd high concept premise. Do we really need another show that features a white bread "family man" on a mission to "save lives", while his trophy wife whines about him missing Jr's piano recital? Thankfully, no. But that doesn't mean the brain trust that continually assaults television audiences with this bland, pointless fantasy rubbish will stop anytime soon. Expect another failed attempt to resuscitate the idea of an involuntary superhero trying to balance his/her paranormal gifts with the demands of a Yuppie suburban lifestyle.
    minia Journeyman was one of the best new shows I've seen in a LONG while. I enjoy Chuck (from the new show crop that season), but it can't touch the quality of this show. It's an insult to the loyal fans to pull the plug on such a great show and then expect to capitalize on our loyalty by releasing it as a DVD. Don't insult us by ripping such a great plot from our very hands and then hoping to console us by taking our money on reruns.From the very beginning, I worried this would be a Quantum Leap rip off. However, they took the concept of "time travel" to a whole, new level. Kevin McKidd and his acting skills made such a fan out of me. Each week, you just wonder what's happening next while you sat on the edge of your seat. Furthermore, I loved how they teased us with clues to the answers around how his character ended up in such a "predicament." The support cast was wonderful too. It's just a shame that shows such as American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance, Dancing with the Stars can last forever, yet a show like Journeyman doesn't have a chance. The time a network spends revamping TRUE classic TV such as Bionic Woman or Knight Rider, they could invest money in making a fresh new show even better. I realize it's all about the all, mighty dollar. However, I really wished they had given this one a chance and perhaps given it a better time slot so many, more people could enjoy this show.I will make one comment for the creative genius of Kevin Falls. I loved how he kept viewers in the loop of the fate of this show. I also appreciated how he and his wonderful staff gave this show a proper ending. For those of you who may have watched the CBS show, Vanished, you can understand how sad it was to watch a show with great potential go to waste when the creators realized it would be cut. They went on to kill the lead actor (the wonderful Gale Harold) in the middle of the season (OMG, can't imagine losing Kevin McKidd) and left more holes than a slice of Swiss cheese, which lends to a total lack of respect for loyal viewers. So while the show got cancelled, I am really happy they gave us a respectable ending. I've seen the opposite, and man does it hurt!Now, I am unsure who gets the money should Journeyman go to DVD, but I put my bets that NBC is in there somewhere. I simply refuse to give them one red cent. R.I.P Journeyman and Jericho...
    pgreene4342 I consider this to be one of the best shows that I have ever seen. I wish there was some way to bring this show back. My daughter and I loved every episode. The storyline was new every week it was interesting and I loved the way the story evolved. I could not wait to see what would happen next.The stars were surprising and the whole cast is talented.I never comment on TV or movies, but I felt compelled to comment on this one.I hope all the viewers make their voices heard and bring this one back.Devastated fan.
