When testing a space-time machine, a brilliant young scientist finds herself stranded in space and time searching for a way home after her machine breaks down.
The stranded in space/time concept is very interesting, although I agree it needs clarity/more specific detail. Like "When testing a space-time machine, a brilliant young scientist finds herself stranded in {WHERE/WHEN]?searching for a way home after her machine breaks down." Where/when could be anyRead more

Where/when could be anything as far as we know- 500 years in the future or past, 10 galaxies over, etc.?It appears you have a very specific setting in mind where the show takes place (as opposed to say a series where the protag is in a different place every episode). So I would describe that place (advanced alien race, etc.)
I think the WHERE/WHEN would probably be a key to how or why your TV show is compelling, so that needs to be in the logline.

After he is ‘killed’ by a female undercover cop determined to stop him from breaking bar, he is ‘saved’ by a female bounty hunter who hallucinates slices of the future and is determined to collect the bounty on his badass future self.
Also, in the TV series Dr Who and The Hitchhikers Guide, characters have been known to talk to future or past selves via the telephone.

Who is your protagonist? What’s their goal? Who is your antagonist? What is the story? I should get a clue as to what the story is about from the logline.
Also Antecedents – don’t think it means what you think it means.
It has various definitions, as a noun i.e. how you used it can mean a preceding circumstance, event, style or phenomenon.
Can also mean ancestors but if I replace that in to your logline then it’s: “Ancestors unwittingly create mankind’s deadliest enemy” – it doesn’t work. If they are our ancestors, then where is this deadly enemy? ?If they are our ancestors then surely this has all played out, then there is no threat and its not “mankind’s deadliest enemy”.
There is no story. There is no protagonist racing against time to save everyone.
