Reviews & Thoughts
Skip everything with the sheriff's son and any and all love plots and you'll probably have a good time with this highly predictable/enjoyable (but flawed) series. These people come from a war-torn world yet have perfect health, teeth, hair and eyebrows Its silly, much like much of the plot. With a few changes the whole show could have been better. The whole thing is paradoxical, doing time travel you have to do it right! The Crossing writers didn't. Still somewhat worth a watch, even if it didn't get a proper ending.
