I saw the promo, disliked it, and was pretty sure this was just a poor commercial attempt to franchise a movie that doesn't readily lend itself to franchising. I did not read the book. Due to morbid curiosity and some time on my hands I decided to give it a try.
Yes, the characters are significantly less appealing than those from the movie, but the movie was pretty sweet, almost sacchrine despite some uncomfortable issues of free will and boundaries. What the series is doing, at least so far, is examining some of those issues through the seeming paradoxes of time travel.
This is exploration beyond the movie so I'm finding it interesting. And there is a very funny in-joke when Claire is brushing her toy horse.
Looking forward to where it goes and wondering if the characters ever become less annoying.
