12 Monkeys Series

 


You should always be worried about how dumb a time travel based story will manage itself; you know it's going to have to be stupid - but it needs to be believable and have some rules and all that spelled out in such a way you can move past it... which; I think is fine how they did it... its not in any way supposed to be based in a science... its a science fiction adventure drama.

Knowing the concept is dumb, and that its a rip off of a movie ... I assumed it was going to be a bit of a cash grab.  I thought there was only one season, and each time a new season pops up I think it certainly must be the last.

I keep watching, and the show keeps moving, and it has not managed to become unbearable; in fact, as far as your options in this genre... if you even think you might like it; I think they did a reasonable job (so far, I'm not finished) in making a fun story to watch, and listen to... 

A lot of psychological situations - with twist and turns you'd expect, a lot of fun engagement with the characters... who I feel are rather rich, for people that are trying to fit into a pre-molded personality (the actors).

In any event, I certainly didn't expect it to be a show that could keep going and hold my interest... and yet, it has and it does.
