Journeyman - NBC Mondays this Fall

Didn't see a thread about this, just saw a commercial for it. Looks a lot like Daybreak/Fugitive/Quantum Leap.

But I'm excited for it because Lucious Vorenus (Kevin McKidd) from Rome is the lead.

When does this one start? I'm curious to see this as well if this is the one about time travel.

It's getting the post-Heroes spot on Monday's at 10pm. I think this has the best chance to succeed out of all the shows that NBC tried at this timeslot last season.

I'll definitely be tuning into episode 1.

It's on at 10? Great, that means it's up against that marvel of a drama, CSI: Miami. I'm not bitter!

It sounds like The Fugitive meets The Pretender; it’s a much watch for me.

Sadly it will probably get crushed in the ratings by that god awful CSI: Miami. Hopefully the idiot Nielsen families get a kick in the head & realize that CSI: Miami is sh*t & gives this show a chance.

I know I’m threadsh*tting on CSI: Miami but it’s the truth.

They could make a show about those two ordering take out and I'd watch every week.

Count me in also. He was great in Rome, lets see what he does with this.

BTW, is it just me, or does he look like he could be Daniel Craig's brother???

Does this series have any relation to the time-traveling video game series The Journeyman Project?

That's who I thought it was when I saw the first promo for this. And then I realized that "No, that's the guy from ROME!"

When I first saw the commercials, I thought the lead was the lawyer Gavin cousin on Rescue Me... who I originally thought was Anthony Michael Hall.

Along with most other Heroes fans, I'll stick around to check this out. Unless its another Flash Gordon fiasco (though that seems to be the specialty of SciFi Channel) it should do well.

this looks interesting - i may have to check it out. The concept and theme reminds me a bit of the novel 'The Time Traveler's Wife' (LOVE that book)

If you liked that book, you should find and watch the Doctor Who episode entitled "The Girl in the Fireplace" (if you haven't already).

There's also a film adaptation of the novel on the way starring Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams.

Saw the preview for this at the movie theaters. You know those 20 minutes of commercials...anyway looks interesting, and Vorenus is the man.

And as a bonus,the guy who played Terry Crowley from The Shield is in this as well...

I am SO in for this show. Pullo is my hero but Vorenus comes in a close second. Hope he time travels back to Rome for at least one episode.

I just saw a commercial for this. Looks kind of cool, but I wonder how many anachronisms we are all going to catch. Seems like it would be hard for a tv show on a modest budget to keep up with that kind of stuff. I never watched Quantam Leap so I don't know how they did it.

+1 So much good Who this year too. Course the same man was behind th pen on one of the best this year.

I too will be checking this out to see how it goes.

Of the same vein I will be checking out Amsterdamn whenever Fox gets around to airing the first 3 episodes (prior to pulling).
