Look, as far as I’m concerned, this is not the end. It might be an ending, but it’s not the end. So, I’m just not going to call it a series finale. I’m gonna call it a Movie Event.
After all, everything – and I do mean absolutely EVERYTHING is getting a revival these days. Who says I can’t stay hopeful?
That being said, I can be both hopeful and excited about this. I can be both hopeful for more and desperate to see happy endings in this – even if we have to sorta disrupt those later if (when) we get a Season 3. I just want to sleep easy for a few months, okay?
So, yes, what I was actually here to say is – the Timeless Writers Room announced yesterday that the two-hour movie event would air in December, in a beautiful thread on Twitter, where they also gave us the name of the director and the two FEMALE writers who are penning these episodes.
Here are the tweets – first, announcing the date:
.@NBC and @SPTV have approved stories for 2 Hour Event @NBCTimeless finale to air in December.

Then the writers:

And just general good wishes and thanks:
We can’t wait to take all you #ClockBlockers on this incredible journey. We’re getting to make these two hours because of you. Thanks!
