"With detailed analysis and thoughtful case studies, the authors in this engaging volume approach one of the most salient - and yet overlooked - modes of television content: time travel. Each chapter deepens and extends temporal exploration of such varied shows as Star Trek, Quantum Leap, Timeslip, Sapphire & Steel, Torchwood, and Life on Mars, among many others. It's about time we had a volume that's all about time." - Paul Booth, De Paul University, author of Time on TV (2012), "This volume feels like the beginning of an important and emerging area of TV Studies. It examines a range of frequently-overlooked examples of telefantasy and provides innovative readings of how these shows engage with discourses of genre, memory and affect. During a period when television's narrative representations of temporality are becoming increasingly complex and viewers' access to television history are being reconfigured, Time on TV's contributions to examining these issues are incredibly timely and welcome." - Dr Ross P. Garner, Cardiff University
