Seeing is Believing Where the first episode back relentlessly fed us plot point after plot point, the second gives us a moment to catch our breath. Recalling the pilot episode, this episode fills in some of the behind-the-scenes stuff happening around our heroes’ younger selves. We get to see a longer version of Ramse and […]
Unlike last year’s binge experience, I split this season’s reviews into individual episodes. Makes for more clicking, but shorter reads. Let’s quit wasting time and get on with 12 Monkeys episode 401: The End! The Final Splinter Sequence Remember how last season ended? Yeah lots of action, but there was one stand-alone scene at the very […]
Initiate Splinter Sequence in Two weeks and Counting… Who’s Ready for the final season of 12 Monkeys!?! It feels like just yesterday I was standing up the 12 Monkeys panel at San Diego Comic-con and asking Alisen Down how she pulled off her amazing Jennifer Goines impression… But actually that was almost a year ago […]
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 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 […]
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 […]
Look up last week’s review. At the beginning, I mentioned something about last week’s episode putting the characters in a bad spot, but it was likely going to get worse for them. Pretty sure this qualifies. Jennifer tells us, “There are many endings. Today is one of them.” That, plus show-runner Terry Matalas’ statements about […]
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. […]
