However, history always gets changed at least a little bit and in some instances this has devastating consequences. Needless to say, the history is presented in an appealing way and those who dislike history will not find themselves bored to death. I knew some things but I also learnt others. Thus, in all episodes our time travellers travel through history to save important events and we get to learn about US (and to some extent European) history, which was really interesting. This secret organisation that influences and rules America from the shadow has killed his family because he raised an issue of who they are so he wants to erase them from history to get his family back. However, while Garcia is at first portrayed as a bad guy slowly his role is changing and we learn he is trying to erase from history an organisation called Ritterhouse. Lucy is a central character in the defence team because she knows history and thus it comes easy for her to guess what will Garcia try to change, because she knows important events in the US political and social history.

In summary, a group of three people are going to the US past to save history because one man is trying to distort it and change it for his own benefit. As a person who has done a PhD in historical sociology using Croatian 19 th century history as a case study, and as a person who is currently researching public relations history, it goes without saying that I absolutely loved this. This beauty shows importance of knowing history and promotes the position of historians as a desirable and useful profession. It has lots of episodes so plenty of enjoyment for time travel lovers like me. The series is amazing, and I am half way through in less that two days. What a waste would it been if I failed to see it during 2017 and if I was unable to blog about it (since I blog about new programme only). Timeless has been on Netflix for a while, but I haven’t seen it until now.
