    I like that he comes back to 2007. The storyline taking place in the present is more interesting to me than the past.

    Life won't be long for "Journeyman."

    The NBC lead-out show to "Heroes" appears to be heading toward cancellation as the "Quantum Leap" wannabe nears the end of its initial order, with apparently no plans to pick up any more episodes.

     

    "Episode 12 is the end of our order," creator Kevin Falls told Premium Hollywood. "And let's not kid ourselves. It's a longshot that we would get a back nine, given the strike and our questionable numbers."

     

    Those questionable numbers are the ratings, considered some of the lowest of genre shows this season, and definitely the lowest of NBC's Monday schedule which also includes "Chuck" and "Heroes." The show had very little hype coming into the season, and the early difficulties of "Heroes" to win back its audience certainly hasn't helped the show at all.

     

    Those who are tuning in shouldn't be too worried about loose ends, however. Falls said that Episode 12 is written in a way that would answer many of the questions posed by the series, but still leave some questions left only for the imagination.

     

    "Journeyman" airs Mondays at 10 p.m. ET on NBC.

    I keep reading about Bionic Woman's imminent demise, tho. They should prob. give it more time to develop.

     

    Now, for 1 nitpick re: Journeyman: if Livia lives in 1948, why is she always dressed like 1980 - present? Her clothes are never from the 40s, no woman wore her hair straight and long like that then. I know she doesn't always have time to change into more modern clothing (even assuming she carries it with her all the time) b/c sometimes she just pops in. At least Dan can fit in from the 70s onward in his clothing. Maybe even earlier. I'm sure there are other nits to pick out there but this is the one I find most glaring.

    For someone who was so looking forward to Bionic Woman, this is the show that's caught my attention.

     

    It wasn't doing well, but seems to have stabilized (thanks writers' strike for keeping it on the air).

     

    While I don't love the storylines which have Dan traveling back in time (sometimes they're just too much the same) the other storylines are really getting interesting. I didn't understand the point of Dan's old girlfriend hanging around the past with him. Now I do. She's really living in 1948! Plus, he's getting into trouble in 2007 for things he's doing in the past & in the present. When the FBI is looking into your actions, it can't be good.

     

    I'm glad I stuck w/this show. After the second ep. I almost gave it up. Now, I'm glad I hung around as it gets more and more interesting.
