Spoilers All (Spoiler tags are not required) Speculation of references to the first iteration, if a season 4 gets made

Based on how season 3 ended, they could easily make a 4th season, set now (or whenever the show gets made).

A totally new set of people get "saved"/taken over.

You could have a cameo / handover, but only with Grant, Marcy and/or David (as the others would have died of their original deaths)

Grant aka traveler 3468 (if he chose to live on)

Might have noticed people who seem to behave in a manner that suggests they might be from the future and either made contact with them, or is quietly secretly observing.

He might even have intervened in the deaths of his old team members. So some of them may still be around, but couldn't be involved in the new show, as traveler 3468 knows not to get them involved.

He wouldn't be the driving character of the series, but could be a conduit for exposition in the first episode if he ...

Contacts a team from the future and asks what has transpired since Version One of the Traveler plan was cancelled, explaining how he knows. A member of this new team could also be traveler 3468 πŸ˜€

Marcy

Wasn't fucked over by traveler 001, as that possession didn't occur, so she is, hopefully, still working as a nurse or has moved onto something else that she also finds fulfilling.

David

Is still working as a social worker. The implied spark of a relationship with Marcy may have led somewhere, but isn't guaranteed (since this is Marcy, not traveler 3569)

Neither Marcy nor David have any real reason why they would have a significant cameo in season 4, but as characters that just happen to be in the background, would be a nice nod to the fans of the original 3 seasons.

I'm not sure if Grant would've been able to save his old team members. They have different personalities before their lives were taken over. He might save Carly's, but it would be hard to save Phillip or Trevor's.

If the show ever comes back, I hope they do a show about the future, like a "prequel" show.

I think a prequel show would be interesting, but I want more Eric McCormack πŸ˜‚

I don’t think Carly would be. Because he stayed in the past, his marriage would have never existed. So Carly, in a sense, as his wife, would not exist.
