Eric Kripke over Timeless

Timeless is een nieuwe science-fiction serie die later dit jaar op de Amerikaanse TV zender NBC te zien zal zijn. Deze verteld het verhaal over een Militair, Piloot en geschiedenis buff die samen terug reizen in de tijd om te voorkomen dat de geschiedenis zal worden veranderd door een crimineel die een state of the art hightech tijdreis machine heeft gestolen. Onze helden daar tegen mogen het doen met een prototype. Ik heb de pilot er al van gezien en eerlijk gezegs is het fun. Eric Kripke is de man achter deze serie en sprak hier over tijdens de NBC persdag en daar van kan je hier onder enkele quotes lezen.


"In a lot of ways, the themes are similar," he said. "Ultimately, Timeless is [also] a show about whether there's fate or free will. If you could go back and change history, should you? Or, is there a flow to the way history is supposed to go? What universe do we live in? Do we live in an ordered one, or do we live in a random and chaotic one where you could go back and change history, and what difference does it make?

That's an argument that the characters in Timeless have. Yes, you get to travel to these amazing periods in history and you get to meet these amazing characters, but you also get to really make deeper philosophical points. That's something that I certainly loved to do in Supernatural, and we're certainly doing that in Timeless."



"For instance, Wyatt - the Delta Force guy [played by Matt Lanter] - his tragically dead wife's name is Jessica, which was Sam's girlfriend's name. We just signed off on Lucy's birth certificate, because it plays in Episode 102, and her birthday is January 24th. It got cut out for time, but the bar they go to in the Hindenburg where they meet [Kate] is called Harvelle's. Anyone who's a fan of mine can certainly get lots of Easter eggs from watching Timeless," Kripke promised.
