12 Monkeys Season 3 Night 3 – Review and Recap
12 Monkeys Season 3 Night 3 Intro The final leg of the journey! We’re exactly like Tour de France bicyclists with this grueling pace. But now we made it. The end of the third season and the knowledge that next season is the finale. We’ve reached the beginning of the end. Let’s see what happened tonight. 308 […]
12 Monkeys Season 3 Night 2 – Review and Recap
12 Monkeys Season 3 Night 2 Intro Everybody still with me here? It’s only night 2 of the 12 Monkeys Season 3 binge, but we’ve all just digested 7 episodes of a mind-bending show in two days! We haven’t exactly discovered extraterrestrial life or anything, but I think should still pat each other on our […]
12 Monkeys Season 3 Interview with Aaron Stanford and Amanda Schull
Last Friday (5/12/17), I participated in a 12 Monkeys Season 3 Interview with Aaron Stanford and Amanda Schull, the show’s leads. Aaron (James Cole) and Amanda (Cassie Railly) return THIS Friday (5/19/17) for SyFy’s first “linear binge” of an entire season over the course of three consecutive nights. The two actors spent an hour on the […]
12 Monkeys 213 Review: Memory of Tomorrow
Now THAT’s a season finale! Back in the 80s and 90s, we couldn’t stand movies with one, boring ending so, movies like Wayne’s World addressed this need by including several “endings” as part of the narrative. What made me think of this connection is the way Cole gives the Titan Team a second pass at the […]
12 Monkeys 212 Review: Blood Washed Away
The creators of 12 Monkeys have been giving us loyal viewers a school yard beating here in the home stretch of the second season. Two weeks ago, they gut-punched us when they disintegrated Dr. Jones, thereby erasing her from time. A week ago, they let us catch our breath with a national holiday (US-based, that is). That […]
12 Monkeys 209 Review: Hyena
A couple of admissions: Last week, I assumed Ramse’s impromptu meetup with Cassie was also an abduction. Turns out, Jones has an open door policy for returning, disgruntled turncoats. Who knew? Also, after all of the bad stuff that happened to Olivia a couple episodes ago, I figured she was dead meat. Not so much. […]
12 Monkeys 208 Review: Lullaby
This episode definitely took me by surprise. I even paused it and came back to it a day later because I thought I knew what was coming. Did the 12 Monkeys writers’ room borrow a familiar idea from films like Groundhog Day and Edge of Tomorrow? Yes, but only the kernel of that idea. In […]
12 Monkeys 207 Review: Meltdown
Caveats: I’m going to make some comparisons to other TV shows in this review. I’m not doing so to imply 12 Monkeys is derivative AND I may spoil something about those other shows along the way. The only thing I want to point out is the rising tendency for TV show runners to using these similar […]
12 Monkeys 205 Review: Bodies of Water
The breath-catching I asked for last week was partially granted in this week’s episode. We got to see a little bit of our old Cassie, a lot of a more empathetic Jennifer, and side of Deacon you would never want to see in person. Plus, I have a theory on who the Witness is. aka […]
12 Monkeys 203 Review: One Hundred Years
Disclaimer: I use Messenger and Monkey pretty interchangeably. This week on 12 Monkeys, we get to see Cole and Cassie reunited as our familiar time traveling duo venture One Hundred Years (see what they did there?) into 2044’s past, to 1944. They’re hot on the heels of a pair of Messengers sent there to harass Thomas […]
