Very intriguing and surprisingly ground for a time travel show. All the actors are pretty tolerable, although the grandmother sound kind of forced at times. The actress who plays Alice is very underrated in my opinion. It usually takes itself pretty seriously but at times there is some refreshingly subtle comedy. Like any time travel show it can be a bit confusing but it could be worse. The typical hallmark troupes show through every once in a while (grandmother has a mint two tone OBS Ford and everyone's on love with somebody) but out of context it'd hardly noticeable. It would be a 9/10 but there's some very forced alphbet people that are pretty obnoxious.

Season 2 update: This show left the rails. It makes no sense. The dialouge and plot are starting to slip. Sadie Snow and both versions of Elliot are basically carrying the show.

This was a great surprise from Hallmark. Previews made me put it on record if I wasn't available. Not disappointed!! Scary that going back in time can actually affect the way you thought your history was. So many twists and a little bit of paradoxical stuff. The acting was great, the original story line was great. It made you think with each episode...what will it do to the next one. I wish I would have recorded them all and just binge watched as this was a show with cliffhangers you hate. While I figured out (in my own mind) after 4 episodes what happened to little bro, it still took the whole series for it to come to fruition. I hope there is another series to finalize the family dynamic.

Love, love, LOVE this show!!! Surprised a show of this caliber is on Hallmark without being sappy. All the mystery, drama & heartstring feel goods without the hokie!

Andie MacDowell, Chyler Leigh, Sadie Laflamme-Snow, Evan Williams, Jefferson Brown & Alex Hook offer up believable performances of enduring friendships, & solid family ties all the while secretly, even to each other, hiding a time travel portal that they've only just begun to explore without ever knowing when they'll arrive in time. The story lines incite hope, trepidation, fear & joy all the while leaving us wanting for more, more MORE!

Beyond excited it's renewed for another season!!! Can't get here soon enough!

It looks so good I can't wait for the 2nd episode, we don't know if she goes back that's what we have to learn, how does she control where she goes, was the witch her grandma, there's so many questions that need to be answered and I hope the best friend and the mom get together as much more than friends I hope they make it interesting the rest of the story, the young girl is a good actress. I hope that eventually the mom travels back maybe they can travel together to a past of her mom it would make it interesting there so many stories that could come out of this I hope the story writer gets very good ideas it would make the program interesting.

As a family therapist who specializes in grief, my favorite TV moments are when shows touch on these topics and do it well, making them both authentic and relatable. That's when I get excited enough to discuss them.

Jacob's (Remy Smith) disappearance leaves Del (Andie MacDowell) Colton (Jefferson Brown) teen Kat (Alex Hook and Chyler Leigh) with what professionals call "ambiguous grief": when the circumstances of loss are unclear and there is no closure. The ambiguity is like a big pile of "buts" "maybes" & "what ifs" that often doesn't allow for grief to enter the rooms of our lives. It's hard to grieve a loss that we cannot acknowledge, or that we're not sure even happened. In this case, not knowing what happened to Jacob creates tension between the hope that he may still be alive ("A Landry never gives up hope") and the will for closure ("when a family member died, they would write down the date, close the book and move on").

The Landry family unit was extremely close before Jacob disappeared. I'm sure they had their fair share of less-than-ideal moments, but all-in-all, they were close and had no trouble expressing their emotions. After Jacob disappeared, they fell into a pattern of silence and disengagement and stopped communicating emotions other than anger. They could not recreate the puzzle of their family unit. While this is by no means a testimony to all, or even most families, it is not uncommon.

In popular culture, we often see a linear process of moving on from grief. However, that linear process doesn't exist, because grief is not about moving on from, it's about moving on with. It's not about getting over, it's about integrating our grief into who we are after a loss. The Landry family shows us the complexity of grief in ways that other shows have not.

The cast portrays it authentically and genuinely, Jefferson Brown is a wonderful, vulnerable Colton, Andie MacDowell is as iconic as ever as both younger and older Del - the first innocent, happy and in love, and the latter hardened by pain and shut down. Alex Hook is an emotional, expressive teen Kat, who portrays the multiple losses she experienced and her trauma bond with Brady well. Also, her resemblance to Chyler Leigh, who portrays adult Kat, makes her a casting brilliance. Chyler Leigh always portrays grief and vulnerability well, but this time she really exceeds even my already high expectations. Last, but by no means least, Sadie Laflamme-Snow, is brilliant in her first lead role, carrying the story and cast. She shows us one can grieve people one never met. I am beyond curious to see where her path leads.

I am completely biased I am sure because I am Kat's age and my daughter is Alice's age. I just love this show!!! When they go back in time to Kat being a teenager and living in that time period takes me back so much. I love the story lines and surprises! Unpopular opinion.....I wish some how Nick and Alice were able to have something more than the short little of what they had back then. Not suggesting at all they should have anything in the "now" time but I just loved their little coupling. I'm not into any of the guys she has been interested in. I give this show ten stars for how amazing it is!!! Can't wait to hear more and more. I did although predict the little boy went in the pond as soon as Alice did for the first time.
