What to Know

Critics Consensus

While it's easy to get swept up in the romance of performers as appealing as Rose Leslie and Theo James, The Time Traveler's Wife often kills the mood with its overdetermined conceit.

Andrew Male The Times (UK) 08/05/2022
... Behind the sub-Sorkin dialogue and enervatingly jolly score, Moffat’s version hints at a darker story about men abandoning women and not even having the decency to say goodbye. Go to Full Review

3/5
The show is buoyed by the charisma of the two lovers, and it succeeds in mining its conceit for some gentle humour and reflections on love and loss. Go to Full Review

4/10
The Time Traveler’s Wife doesn’t deliver a compelling romance, and that’s largely due to its complicated timeline. Go to Full Review
Martin Carr Yahoo! Movies 05/21/2023
The Time Traveler's Wife is a tale for those who believe love lasts a lifetime. Go to Full Review
M. Canales El Mundo (Spain) 01/10/2023
The frustration of the protagonists, who cannot be together in the same space or time for more than a few hours, is transferred to the viewer, who is hardly clear what moment of the present, past or future the plot is in. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Ahnaf @ahnaffieee Jan 9 I cannot believe the absolute nonsense I am seeing in some reviews of The Time Traveler’s Wife. This show is heart, pain, love, and humanity. It is about a man and woman struggling to love each other across impossible circumstances. Henry is more respectful than any of these reviewers have ever been to anyone in their lives, let alone their own mothers. The intimacy, the heartbreak, the moments of connection across time that is true chemistry. Not whatever delusional nonsense these keyboard critics are projecting. I have read the books, watched the movie, and now the series, and I loved every part of it. Every heartbreak, every tear, every bittersweet moment lands. And yes, I am a little late to this party three years late, actually but here I am, defending this masterpiece because it deserves it. Time may have passed, but the emotional impact has not faded. See more Rafael K @Rissamu Dec 3 I really enjoyed the series. It’s incredibly intelligent, filled with deep nuances and reflections that keep you engaged from start to finish. The touch of romance is perfectly balanced, never overdone, always adding to the story and the characters’ development. It’s truly a shame that it was canceled after just one season, as it had enormous potential to be explored. A show that truly deserved to continue. See more Akash S Apr 1 Such a heart touching show. Clare's love is at insane level. Beautiful presented by both the actors. Loved it. Wish I could see it's 2nd season. See more Lynn S Mar 5 I loved everything about and wish there was another season. I loved the acting and storytelling adaption and filming! So much more to tell. See more Lynda M Feb 23 I loved it and was very disappointed that it was only running for one season. It would have been nice to see her actually have a child, just like the movie. I enjoyed the acting. Sad that it's over. See more Ruben S 12/09/2023 One of the best drama shows I've ever seen. Ruined my day to find out that they are not renewing it. See more Read all reviews
