Glenn and Scott complete their coverage of The Time Traveler's Wife with a review of the new HBO series adaptation. They discuss how the characters changed between the book and the screen, how the story fares in a visual format, how the series relates to Moffat Discourse (TM), the performances of the actors, the technological aspects of the historical setting, the choice to replace half of Episode 6 with a trailer for an as-yet-unannounced Season 2, and how this series made Scott doubt his own judgement.
Content note: One of the storylines from the show that we discuss in this episode involves the physical and sexual assault of one of the characters. This part of the discussion begins at 15:29 and ends at 24:14.
