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.

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.

This is interesting, in a "I want to know more" way. Is the fiancee an astronaut too? Why is the fiancee being sent into space? What is the astronaut doing in the meantime, is he also in space, etc. Does his hunt take place on earth or in space? Is there an antagonist? I think some of these things nRead more

I think some of these things need to be in the log line.
On a side note, this would be a great way for a romantic rival to “get rid” of the astronaut- by going on the trip with the fiancee so they will stay the same age, while the astronaut would become old.

This has all the basic elements, just needs to be grammatically better.cleaner. Something along the lines of-
“After a werewolf violently takes the lives of her family and unborn child, a young newlywed turns into a cold-hearted hunter, only to discover the werewolf is her best friend.”
I feel there could be a little more added to describe the main storyline though. She turns into or becomes a cold-hearted hunter which is important, but that doesn’t really describe what she is actually DOING for most of the movie. So for example,
“Hardened by a brutal werewolf attack that takes the lives of her family and unborn child, a young newlywed… [WHAT SHE DOES], only to discover the werewolf is her best friend.”
The last phrase about her best friend is actually optional, but if it happens say midway through the story then it’s better to include it. If it’s a final act twist, then it’s probably better to leave it out.
