User Reviews for: The Time Traveler's Wife

The show features a romantic relationship that develops between a man and a woman who meet when the woman is a young child and the man is an adult.

I thought the show would be the story of the little girl's life as she grew up and sometimes had meetings with the older man. But the show is not the story of the girl's life. It's about him, not about her. It's just what happens to the older man when he has his moments of time travel and visits the girl. The only meaning in the girl's life are her future husband encounters.

If the show focused on the girl's full life, such as her parents finding out she met a naked man in the woods, it would show her as a well rounded character. That would make the show have more meaning. The woman needs to be her own person and it would be fun to watch her grow up from a child over time.

Unfortunately, this show is on streaming internet instead of over-the-air TV and it has limited episodes. It doesn't have time for anything to develop that doesn't involve the man.

The male lead has the charisma and looks to pull off his role well and the woman is a good actress. They are just trapped in a flawed show.
