Top Fav Time Travel Television Series
by Sharon Ledwith

I’ve been obsessed with the concept of time travel since I was a young girl. I don’t know why, but the genre just sucks me in. Sorry, no vampires in my series. Well, none that I’m aware of yet. The decision to write The Last Timekeepers time travel series came to me through a dream I had in the late 90s, and I’m glad I managed to pull it out of my subconscious and onto paper. The first book in the series, The Last Timekeepers and the Arch of Atlantis, is geared for the upper middle grade and lower young adult crowd, but I believe adults would have a blast in the past too. In honor of this timely subject, I thought it would be fun and fitting to do a little time traveling in my mind (with the help of my trusty search engine) and recall what television shows had planted their seeds and rooted me firmly in this genre. I found I was grasping at straws. I could only come up with three legitimate shows I truly liked. So I ended up throwing in a couple of honorable mentions.

So, without further ado, my top five (sort of) fav time travel television shows…

• Quantum Leap (1985)—Scott Bakula, a tight white suit, and any body will do. 

• Voyagers! (1982-83)—handsome ex-pirate meets 12 year-old boy, then go travel through time to repair errors in world history together.

• Tru Calling (2003-05)—according to Tru Davies, the dead do speak, and want her to make them undead.

•  Doctor Who (1963 and still going)—not a fan, but is worth mentioning as it’s the longest running science fiction television show in the world and has a huge fan base.

•  It’s About Time (1966)—think Gilligan’s Island meets the Flintstones. Then again, don’t.

About The Last Timekeepers and the Arch of Atlantis:

When 13-year-old Amanda Sault and her annoying classmates are caught in a food fight at school, they're given a choice: suspension or yard duty. The decision is a no-brainer. Their two-week crash course in landscaping leads to the discovery of a weathered stone arch in the overgrown back yard. The arch isn't a forgotten lawn ornament but an ancient time portal from the lost continent of Atlantis.

Chosen by an Atlantean Magus to be Timekeepers--legendary time travelers sworn to keep history safe from the evil Belial--Amanda and her classmates are sent on an adventure of a lifetime. Can they find the young Robin Hood and his merry band of teens? If they don't, then history itself may be turned upside down.
