    No one yet?

    I'm surprised.

    Good premier. I liked it, and even my girlfriend was intrigued by it (she is tired of Arrow and Flash but I convinced her to give this a shot). Though she kept on making a joke about watching Doctor Who...

    Bring on more.

        It felt rushed and would have played out better if the episode would have been 2 hour long or at least one and half episode long.
        sorry about my lack of language skills as it is not my daily language and have learned it by my self as not from any help of others or a school

          Enough to poke my interest.

          Did anybody else get the impression there was some timey wimey history being rewritten in front of our eyes moffat style with this or was it just me?

          For example, Dr Stein couldn't remember the discussion he and Ray Palmer had had previously about power sources, plus he kept referring to Palmer as Mr, with Palmer correcting him "it's Doctor" while they were trying to get to the ship when Dr Stein said "Thank you Mr Palmer". There were other little titbits too, but I can't remember them lol.

          It's enough to question what will happen when/if they return to the present, does Palmer interact with himself in the past and change his direction in life, or is even Doctor Stein from Earth 2 (or does he do the same thing, perhaps interacting with his previous self and changing his own timeline)?

          Or am I just over analysing the actions of an old man? (My dad forgets things all the time lol).

            I liked Sarah hanging out with Captain Cold and Heatwave in a bar and Jax not allowed to go with them

              I got that vibe from the whole 'time master council;.

              Though how is it that Rip has Gideon on his ship, and Eobard thawn had Gideon as well in Flash S1??

              Or he really didn't remember Palmer in school.. He was just that forgetful of the guy?

                  This Gideon has a different voice than the one on Flash. I'm thinking Gideon is a time-travel Siri rather than an individual AI.

                          I tried to come up with some clever quip relating Garhkal's to the characters, but nothing can fit. I'm stumped.

                            Maybe he was thinking of Sara and Cold? I've seen people shipping them, so maybe he got the characters names mixed up and that's who he thought you were talking about? That's all I can come up with.

                              This wasn't exactly a good first impression for me.

                              They had so many characters so often the important scenes felt rushed. The fact that they all accepted the mission so quickly felt weird.

                              More importantly though, they got a big head start on the bizarre morality of the heroes. Now Stein is a kidnapper? That's messed up.

                              Stein: I did NOT rufie him!

                              That's EXACTLY what you did, dude. That should have put a permanent wrench in their relationship.

                              Jax should not have forgiven him so quickly. The correct response to his apology was "**** you! You drugged and kidnapped me!"

                              And Rip Hunter not only knew that he was drugged and brought against his will, he specifically told Gideon to prevent the kidnap victim from escaping the life threatening mission he was forced into.

                              Clearly he doesn't care about getting their consent, so why didn't he just kidnap them all and force them to help him?

                              Also, he's got a bizarre hypocrisy about altering the timeline. Even putting aside the fact that he's doing this specifically to save his family but doesn't want anyone else to save theirs, he also made a big deal about the importance of the cloaking device on his timeship but then doesn't actually turn it back on again. This is directly responsibly for those guys seeing it, and then Chronos killing them.

                              Brilliant logic from the guy sent back to prevent a rogue agent from altering the timeline by the way, murdering people in the past for no reason.

                              It was almost like the time travel in this show is intentionally written as a joke.
                              "First Weir, then Samantha Carter, and now, you! It's a pity you humans die or get reassigned so easily, or I might have a sense of satisfaction now!"

                              *You got the touch! You got the poweeeeer!*

                              "Arise, Woolseyus Prime."

                              "Elizabeth..."
