Travelers

„Travelers“ von Brad Wright handelt von einer Gruppe Zeitreisender, die ihr Bewusstsein Hunderte Jahre in der Zukunft „Quantum Leap“-Style ins 21. Jahrhundert zurückschickt, wo sie die Leben scheinbar gewöhnlicher Menschen übernehmen. Sie tun dies, um die Menschheit vor einer schrecklichen Katastrophe zu bewahren. Die Gruppe besteht aus Anführer FBI Special Agent Grant MacLaren (Eric McCormack), Marcy (MacKenzie Porter), einem Mädchen mit geistiger Behinderung und ihr Sozialarbeiter David (Patrick Gilmore), Highschool-Quarterback Trevor (Jared Abrahamson), Single-Mom Carly (Nesta Cooper) und dem drogenabhängigen Studenten Philip (Reilly Dolman).

Hundreds of years from now, the last surviving humans discover the means of sending consciousness back through time, directly into people in the 21st century. These Travelers assume the lives of seemingly random people, while secretly working as teams to perform missions in order to save humanity from a terrible future.These travelers are: FBI Special Agent Grant MacLaren, the team's leader; Marcy, a young, intellectually disabled woman in the care of her social worker, David; Trevor, a high school quarterback; Carly, a single mom in an abusive relationship; and Philip, a heroin-addicted college student.Armed only with their knowledge of history and an archive of social media profiles, the travelers discover that 21st century lives and relationships are as much a challenge as their high-stakes missions.
