That's what I'm saying!

It's a shame that SyFy's botched distribution managed to make them literally pull a 0.2 rating.

Probably The Shield, which started in 2002, so more like 16 years ago. And even then it's debatable which I'd find better right now.

I'd be okay with that. S2/3 had issues with their filler episodes though, so it's not even a perfect fix.

I'm of the opinion that if you have to adjust your expectations, something has already gone wrong. Shows are allowed to -- and should -- evolve but it has to feel natural. LOST was just jarring and floundered, even after they didn't have to pump out filler episodes (which were another nasty problem on their own) anymore.

Plus, I'm of the opinion that the only thing the last few seasons of LOST did right was taking the luster off the John Locke character, who I never enjoyed.

LOST is one of those shows that I'm angry I watched all of. Same with Heroes.

How does this relate to the movie? Same continuity, reboot, or no connection at all?


It takes the "shell" of the movie and basically expands on it in every way possible, so I guess reboot? A virus released by The Army of 12 Monkeys in 2017 wipes out like 90% of the earth's population. In 2043 a team of survivors sends James Cole back to 2015 in order to try and prevent its release. There's no direct connection to the movie at all though.

I actually have no idea. I know it's on Hulu, but I'm still a dirty pirate.

Oh yeah I don't disagree with that. SyFy mangled distribution of it. After S1/S2 had poor initial viewers, but slammed hard on DVR/streaming sites they just decided that would do it all binge style. And that was a poor decision. Airing all of S3 in one day last year was miserable, and airing all of S4 over four weeks this year wasn't much better.

But the show was good in spite of its distribution, which also almost never happens.

Is it too grandiose to say the 12 Monkeys series finale was flawless? Definitely not! In fact, flawless fails to reach the heights of praise this episode and this show as a whole deserves. There are many wonderful shows whose finales have left fans disappointed; 12 Monkeys stands alongside these science fiction greats with the further distinction of nailing its landing. Fans will be talking about this tour de force for years to come, and all those who come to the series after its stellar end will be kicking themselves for not being there before the cycle ended.


i will keep hyping this for at least a few more days

The first season has the unenviable task of world and character building an entire apocalypse, but it gets rolling fast enough after the first few episodes. And once it has everything built up, it just fucking plows through. For reference, on Rotten Tomatoes (Critical/Audience):

S1- 62% / 82%
S2- 88% / 92%
S3- 89%
S4- 100% / 95%

A lot of sci-fi shows and time travel shows in general I'm afraid to get into because I'm afraid they will go off the rails in the final act. But I have literally zero complaints about the series finale and that seems to be the general consensus of the reviews I've read as well. Like I am so excited to have watched this show, that's how good it is and I want to push as many people as I can to watch it too.

Like all of 4 people watched it, and it got cut down a season from what was originally planned, but a lot of effort was still put into painstakingly making everything right. Which in a show that relies heavily on time travel, means a ton and almost never happens.

I recommend it highly to anyone who enjoys sci-fi, time travel, good characters, or good television in general.
