The "Journeyman" Discussion Thread

Great series finale! Answered many questions without giving too much away. I just loved the entire story!

[MB.Eddie]

I loved last night's episode and I have to say, that given that this will likely be the last episode it is the most satisfying last episode of any series with an unspecified future. As much as I'd love to see the series continue, if it ends here I wouldn't be left unsatisfied. It's as good an ending as any series finale I've seen, in some cases better.

My thoughts exactly. Satisfying end to the season/and probably the show, which is a shame as its a great idea/format.

Another amazing episode. I cried a little. The ending was quite touching. I'm glad that Katie finally got to see Dan leave.

The writers did a great job of wrapping things up(but not too tightly) in the time that they had. I'm going to think of Journeyman as a mini-series instead of a tv show that got the shaft.

I think that is a great way to think about it under the circumstances.

Wow, fantastic last episode! The last 10 min were the best wrap-up to a series I think I've seen in a long time (somebody on another site likened it to ST:TNG finale and I kinda agree). Everything from the

Spoiler:

Dan/Livia feels like a long time before we see eachother again scene, to the circular dan jumping for the first time, to the explaination of Langley, to the I'll leave a Light on from Katie, to Katie watching Dan jump

was just perfect and amazing. I'll really miss this show, but I have to say I'm pretty happy that Kevin Falls was awesome enough to give us a good wrapup.

If anybody reads any good season 2 fanfic, I'd love to read it!

Although I hope we get more than 13 episodes of Journeyman, the last episode was amazingly satisfying. Somehow "Perfidia" (Episode 113) worked both as a series finale and as a mid-season finale.

With Perfidia the writers successfully straddled the incredibly difficult divide between series finale/mid-season finale by giving me just enough answers to not leave me completely hanging and yet left enough unanswered so that I would love to see Journeyman continue.

Whatever Journeyman's fate, I look forward to buying the DVDs because I want every bit of background available about this series.

Me too I hope the release the DVDs soon if they do well maybe it can find life somewhere else

yeah cant wait for the dvds

There is little to no hope for SciFi picking this up, it simply is not their brand of show. In short, the production quality is beyond that which SciFi likes to spend for shows (Dresden, PKJ, Eureka, Trash Gordon, etc..) with the exception of BSG, and we all know how that is turning out. Unless the show can be filmed in the woods of Canada with lesser known actors then forget it. USA is a minor possibility in theory, but in reality NBC will just not do anything with this show. I expect the same will happen with Bionic woman, which will simply not get renewed.

[Skydiver]

actually, i would say unless they can recast dan with a scantily clad 20 something with her boobs hanging out all the time, scifi wont' care...oh and monsters, can't forget the cheesy cgi monsters

Journeyman is too smart for skiffy

Great show, and a great possible series finale. I'll be looking for the DVDs for sure.

It seems like Journeyman would be a good fit for USA. Who knows ... they've cancelled half their originals.

[poundpuppy29]

I don't have cable so USA is no good for me but I would find some comfort that it is still going.

[Lord batchi ball]

IMO USA would be the only network likely to pick the show up or maybe FX but the show showing up on anther network is unlikely since NBC took a bath on the ratings.

But maybe (1 to 100) NBC will try the show again in the spring.

I was glad Katie got to see him go as well .... It was such a beautiful way to end the show (if that really was the end). There's hope for some continuation and certainly room for many more stories, but I wasn't left dissatisfied like I have been with so many cancelled shows (John Doe and Tru Calling spring immediately to mind).

I read in the latest Entertainment Weekly that the creator of Journeyman, Kevin Falls had been fired by the studio that produces the show.

Hollywood Reporter also had the story.
