Pushing for 'Journeyman' revival after rewatching it on streaming

I was scrolling through Peacock last week and saw 'Journeyman' in the suggested list. I remember watching it in 2007 and it got canceled after 13 episodes. I rewatched the whole season in 2 days and it holds up way better than I expected. The time travel rules were simple and the main character actually had to deal with consequences every episode. Does anyone else think this show deserves a second shot on Netflix or Hulu?

The network never gave it a fair shot because they buried it on Monday nights against football and Dancing with the Stars. A streaming platform like Hulu could release it as a binge drop and let people discover it naturally without competing for live TV ratings. What really stands out to me now is how the show managed to make time travel feel grounded instead of gimmicky. A limited series revival could wrap up that season 2 setup in 6 episodes without dragging anything out.

Wait, didn't @the_tessa mention how the show made time travel feel grounded? That reminds me of how my uncle used to explain quantum physics with a broken toaster and a garden hose, somehow made perfect sense.

Uncle frank once fixed his truck with a coat hanger and a lighter, which is basically the same energy.
