How about... they have a device for going back in time to solve crimes. They project themselves back a bit like an out of body experience. They see everything that is happening but can't interact or change history.... BUT... there's a big electrical storm and the power line gets hit by lightning and the guy fully materializes in the past and has to avoid messing anything up. It could be dark humor.
Like... he buys a hotdog in the past and eats it but it should have been bought by another guy who was supposed to choke on it and die... so to avoid changeing history, the timer traveler has to throttle this guy by jamming a hotdog down his throat lol.
Also.. somehow he prevents an old lady from having a heart attack... so then he has to give her one by scaring her.
I dunno... it has possibilities though lol.

Hey I like this discussion about time travelling.
If it was possible to travel back in time we would already know it.
I think this basically kills the whole idea of time travelling.
Humans would destroy the whole evolution by doing it.
We are too greedy.
edit.
It is funny that scientists seriously working on this..

Well, there wont be any "time machines" as such, but that doesnt mean that there wont be time portals alowing you to see into the future and past, but not acually be there... There cant be time machines, because they would of come back this far already, unless they swore not to not go back behind the time where time machines were made, which is very unlikley. They could be watching us right now!

There are scientists who believe that time travel is possible, but that you are more likely to just rewind things rather than be able to change anything. For example, you go back in time to when you were born and every atom in your body just relocates to where they were at that time in history. Even the atoms of the time machine you travelled in would do the same. Sooo.. if one of the time machines components came from a pop up toaster, it would go back to being one.
In other words, time travel would be possible, but you'd never meet someone from the future because they'd just become what they were in the past. Travelling into the future might be possible however, but yuor couldn't come back.... or you could but again you'd rewind yourself and not remember anything.

I read from a magazine that you could make a time machine out of black holes and travel by them with a space ship to travel back and forth through time. (like a car running a course around gravitational traffic cones )
this would allow the traveler to go forward in time up untill the point where the black holes no longer exist or thave been moved, but the traveler could only go back to the point where his ship was origionally put in the course, Go back too far and it would disappear.
so yeah its still possible, its just that we havent made the machine yet .
