no one asked for this buthear me out guys,

i was so looking forward to watching “the time traveler’s wife’ hbo series since it was announced because i love sci-fi and most importantly you know THEO. JAMES, theo james playing a tragic character, theo james playing a character with genetic disorder that makes him involuntarily time travel, naked whumpy-looking theo james. you get my drift

anyways, i watched it today and i say this with utmost restraint, the pilot episode was very hard to watch. first of all, i thought this show was supposed to have some tragic undertone and look gritty. i mean i haven’t read the book, but what i gathered via online, it’s a romance sci-fi story and the main character goes through traumatic stuff. instead, the ep 1 gave off cutesy vibes lol. didn’t look remotely sci-fi.

secondly, it has an ick-factor for me: the concerning early-relationship storyline. the fact the main character henry goes back in time where he meets his future wife, clare, as a very young girl. and it’s implied that the very young clare subsequently starts having fantasies about him as a sexual partner. yeah, like i said, icky! that threw me way off.

episode 1 just seemed odd to me. i might be wrong and it might get better when the other episodes come out. for now, that’s how i feel. all i know is they foreshadowed theo james’ henry will be getting whumped in the coming episodes. so if the whole show ends up being an unwatchable train wreck at least theo james’ character getting whumped will make up for it (the whump better be there) *fingers crossed*
