well, they could've cast chinese kid then?

Chloe and Dan both have blue/green eyes. But their daughter has dark eyes.
That is not possible unless Chloe cheated and Dan is not her real father.

It was very dissapointing.But I'd watch more.
Also I wonder what revival would look like if Edward Herrmann didn't die?

Don't get your hopes high. Erice Kripke has ruined the Revolution and now will do the same with Timeless with his formulaic storytelling straight form the 80's.
