While I am watching Time After Time, I too remember the 1979 movie as being better.
Time travel stories are tough for large networks that need huge audience numbers. They can get very hard for the casual viewer to follow and mentally keep track of what changes in the past have done to "present" time.
I would also imagine they are hard to write, attention to detail must be at the anal retentive level to keep continuity straight, and they can lock themselves into paths that they didn't intend.
I've given up on Frequency, I don't think it will get another season, and I doubt TaT will either. Timeless has a decent chance of coming back, though.
