TM41 · May 22, 2017 · 45:02
S3E10 – Witness
It's no surprise that the season 3 finale of 12 Monkeys is titled Witness, but the identity of the Witness certainly was! Just when we thought we had it figured out!
TM40 · May 22, 2017 · 36:35
S3E9 – Thief
Athan Cole certainly does not seem to be amenable to the future laid out before him, and in the 12 Monkeys episode, Thief, we see his avoidance strategy.
TM39 · May 21, 2017 · 31:11
S3E8 – Masks
The team is splintered in an entirely different way in the episode of 12 Monkeys entitled Masks. Is the fissure between Team Jones and Team Witness too wide to ever bridge again?
TM38 · May 20, 2017 · 39:20

TM33 · May 19, 2017 · 33:13

TM32 · May 19, 2017 · 40:24
S3E2 – Guardians
We're going down some dark paths in the second episode of 12 Monkeys' third season entitled Guardians! The team seems very fractured, and the mission has barely even started yet!

TM25 · Jun 15, 2016 · 1:06:20
S2E9 – Hyena
The origin story of the Daughters doesn't turn out the way we expected in this week's 12 Monkeys episode, Hyena , nor does the investigation into Titan and the Witness in 2044.
