THE SHORT VERDICT:
A surprisingly engaging, heartfelt time travel mystery that stays nicely consistent, from start to finish.
Yes, Show’s production values lean basic, and yes, the 80’s characters can sometimes be a bit too loud and theatrical, but once you adjust your viewing lens and expectations around these, this turns into a pretty strong watch.
Show more than makes up for its shortcomings with how much heart it has, and, importantly, manages to finish strong, instead of petering out at the end, as some time travel stories have been known to do.
Would recommend.
