Time After Time Episode 3 - 28 Thoughts I Had

Last week ended with a broken time machine and Jack the Ripper still on the loose. Unlike Timeless, Time After Time appears to not focus on time travel as the main drive of the story. And that’s a good thing. Don’t get me wrong, I love Timeless and seeing the heroes move time and space to hunt the bad guy. I do love learning about history while being entertained. Thankfully, Time After Time is taking a slightly different approach where the focus, at this point, is people from the past dropped into present day. Will we see The Ripper and HG Wells dropped into other moments in history? Time will tell.

My thoughts on this week’s episode

These voiceovers explaining the series are being overused. Audiences are smarter than that. Stop it.
Um…. more shirtless Ripper? Colour me scared and aroused.
Watching someone out of time learning to prepare a bachelor’s perfect meal (burrito, of course) is the best.
Oh. The home owner’s roommate showing up after you have killed her is awkward.
Wait – there is no way that plastic wrapper survived 3 minutes in the microwave. Fake food covered in melted plastic covering?^Source
That gem that powers the time machine would look really good on a necklace around my neck.
These guys from the 1800s pick up on using smart phones way faster than my 80 year old grandmother.
HG Wells always looks like he is mildly shocked and confused.
Why does the science guy know that he’s actually HG Wells? Doesn’t that rip the space time continuum into itty bitty pieces?
Science talk – blah blah blah
Apparently time machines don’t play well with modern technology
A six foot three ginger is not going to blend into the crowd. Stalker needs to blend in.
Brain scientist beats surgeon – no matter what time you live in.
The ginger stalker is Chad. He knows about the time machine and HG Wells. So does his mother with dementia. Chad is suppose to save present day from the Ripper? I’m so confused.^Source
Has the Ripper met his match in the brain scientist? Also, yay women in science!
Ok, the adorable awkwardness between HG and Jane was cute to start but now it is getting to be too much.
Who knew gemologists were also hot?
Not. Crossfit.
He’s not really going to give up a rare gem stone just because some cute girl asks… is he?
“‘He completely lacks subtlety.’ ‘Perhaps it’s all that crossfit.'” Even the guy from the 1800s recognizes a douche when he meets one.^Source
Of course, the Ripper is good in bed.
So all you need to do to get a rare large gem is to sign for it? When my husband visited a gemologist to pick out a diamond for my engagement ring, he had to go through 18 levels of security doors and was not allowed to touch ANYTHING.^Source
I don’t understand either, HG.
Now her partner knows about HG Wells? The inner circle is expanding far too rapidly.
Confession – blah blah blah – more Jack the Ripper with open shirt please.
Oooooooo didn’t see that coming. Nicely played with the needle to the neck.
Kissing and literally fireworks. Cheesy.
Way too many people know about Wells and the time machine.
