The most unbelievable thing just happened recently and fans could not be any happier. NBC has finally renewed “Timeless” for another season. This happened after they canceled the said show then got pressured by the fans.
NBC Resurrects ‘Timeless’ For Another Season
Just last week, NBC announced that it is pulling “Timeless” off their network. The cancellation came quite a shock especially to millions of viewers that have grown fond of the new time-travelling series. However, after few days of negotiating with Sony Pictures Television, NBC has decided to take back the show and give it another shot after working things out.
NBC has surprisingly announced just recently that “Timeless” Season 2 has been greenlighted. The show’s executive producer Eric Kripke broke the news on Twitter and said that the new season will have 10 episodes. Kripke further revealed that the second installment has been slated to air next summer but he pointed out that this has not been finalized yet.
Fans Unite To Bring Back ‘Timeless’ To The Screen
“Timeless” being given a second chance was indeed a special treat to fans. Kripke’s Twitter post noticeably mentioned that the show was revived because of fans especially after #TimeTeam went viral. NBC Entertainment’s chairman Robert Greenblatt and president Jennifer Salke admitted that they were saddened that “Timeless” was canceled. Greenblatt explained that they were left with no choice when they realized that there were probably no more slots left for the said series with the new shows coming in.
However, they were surprised that the cancellation news raised outcries from countless fans. And because of the pressure from the fans, they were swayed, decided to work on “Timeless” again, and started negotiations with Sony TV. Greenblatt, Salke, and NBC programming head Vernon Sanders reportedly did their best to make sure the renewal happened because they, too were huge fans of the said science fiction show.
