We're watching Star Trek DS9 at the moment and always skip the time travel episodes as both my boyfriend and I dislike them. I think it's mainly because time travel doesn't make sense and the whole paradox thing bothers me. If you go back in the past and change the future and that prevents you form even existing then you never get to go back in time and change. It just doesn't make sense and I don't like that. So I'll be staying far away from these series ;). I have read a few books where I didn't mind it as much, mostly time travel romances where it's more about the difference in time period than the actual time travel aspect.Lolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14284689418552571180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-30262860532128153932016-04-09T20:21:19.978-07:002016-04-09T20:21:19.978-07:00I haven't heard of either of these, but I'...I haven't heard of either of these, but I'm always looking for new shows to binge watch - I'll have to check these out because I love time travel!<br /><br />Nicole @ <a href="http://feedyourfictionaddiction.com" rel="nofollow">Feed Your Fiction Addiction</a>Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addictionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637114079800138680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-38293973937761802922016-04-07T12:22:27.878-07:002016-04-07T12:22:27.878-07:00I do enjoy time travel but I'm never found a s...I do enjoy time travel but I'm never found a show where it's well-executed.

I'm a firm believer in the butterfly effect, and I feel like, for time travel to make sense, then whatever the person does when they travel into the past would have had to already happen. Like, the current timeline has already taken into account that this person went into the past and did something, and that's what caused everything to be exactly as it is right now. If it doesn't work like that in a book/movie/show, I can't deal with it. Look what you've done, now you've got me started on this lol. It's just, there's always something that doesn't make sense, some plot hole, etc. The only time I've ever felt time travel was handled perfectly in a way that made sense and didn't have flaws was in The Time Traveler's Wife.<br /><br />So basically, it wouldn't matter how amazing character development or action or tension or anything like that is, I'm just too distracted by my annoyance to enjoy most time travel stuff lol.Kit @ Metaphors and Moonlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10113986982046115579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-73958829205484947522016-04-06T15:41:46.462-07:002016-04-06T15:41:46.462-07:00Not a huge fan of time travel books but I do like...Not a huge fan of time travel books but I do like the genre in shows - Continuum sounds really good - I think I will give it a try!<br /><a href="http://jenryland.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Jen @ YA Romantics</a><br />Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04756695137600895936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-30191996867701282612016-04-06T08:38:46.186-07:002016-04-06T08:38:46.186-07:00They've started showing Continuum here and I&#...They've started showing Continuum here and I've been following it.
