The "Save Timeless" fan campaign continues, urging NBC for a third season

In the wake of NBC's announcement of a two-part special event in December, fans work to recruit new viewers in hopes of securing a third season of the cult favorite show

'Timeless' surely has some dedicated fans. NBC formally announced on June 22 that they had opted not to order a third season of the series. Fans rallied on social media to send a message to the cast, crew, Sony and broadcaster NBC that they would fight for the beloved show, in hopes of garnering some form of closure to the second season’s cliffhanger.

The group decided on a 4,000-square-foot banner, flown by helicopter for three hours at San Diego Comic-Con. A second helicopter documented the stunt via live stream for fans unable to attend in person. The campaign raised more than $23,000 in less than two weeks to fund the flyover. Now that NBC has promised a two-part special event to air in December to give them some closure, they want a third season.
