12 Monkeys Season 1 Finale Review

Hey People,

Okay so every comment I have read about the finale has been positive. It's not like I was set on looking, but I couldn't find a negative comment/review so allow me to be the first. So let's start the rant.

I'm seriously starting to dislike Cassie. Yay, let me just shoot people because if they don't side with us then they're the enemy and must die. That is some messed up shit. I don't even understand why she was sent back when she's not immune to the virus so she'll just die. That was a waste of a splinter. Let me send her back so she'll die just not as quickly.

Jones is 10 times worse. She made a mistake. She better not be referring to her destroying the cure because if she is, then that was a horrible excuse and a bad writing for her character. Isn't she supposed to be smart? What is the woman's goal? To stop the disease from occurring? Send the cure back with instructions. You can obviously transport things back other than humans because her past husband kept sending her some dead red plant. I don't understand her at all.

Hey People,

I'm still trying to get back into the groove of things.

Okay so I'm confused. I thought when there was a paradox, it meant the thing of the future would disappear like the watch. So why is Cole still around? Is it different for humans? I thought the last episode would explain why Jones destroyed the cure because I still don't understand why she did that and it was a good opportunity to do that because we meet younger Jones (which BTW she looks a thousand times better) and I thought maybe this would explain her actions in the future, but nope. Still no answers for that question.

I know people think that this show is the best sci-fi show since Fringe and it's not. I definitely think Person of Interest should claim that title, but that's just me. When you have big plot holes such as the one suggested above or the scratch on the watch disappearing (which the only plausible explanation so far is the future changed so future Cole never puts the scratch on the watch) and you don't fill them, it ruins the show. Fringe had a way of hinting at things, but never revealing until they were ready and when they did, they would answer it in a big way and it would make sense. I can only hope that 12 Monkeys does the same.

Now there has been some talk on whether Jennifer is Cole's mother or half-sister. I don't think she's either. Cole was born in 2009 and Jennifer was born in 1987. That's a 22 year difference so if Jennifer's mother was 20 she would have been 42 with Cole and that just seems unlikely. Also Jennifer can't be Cole's mother either (although I like theory if she was). Jennifer didn't know about the 12 Monkeys until Cole told her about them and she's been repeating it ever since. Cole's mother already knew about the 12 Monkeys which is why she dropped Cole at his father's because she couldn't protect him. So there goes that theory as well.

This wasn't much of a recap so I'll try to sum up the penultimate as quick as possible. They needed to find 2015 Cole because for some reason his blood would save 2043 Cole. So Cassie gets the help of 2015 Jones, who is pregnant and smoking because she doesn't want to keep the baby. So Jones knew already how things were going to play out in 2015 (which makes me think why didn't she change up her game, by I don't know, giving Cole the cure). Anyway, Cole's father dies trying to protect him and Cassie and Jones leaves him in child services where he meets Ramse. I guess Jones being around younger Cole made her want to keep her baby so she quits smoking (for the time being). Also, Jennifer took over her father's business. And for some damn reason the red plant is growing on the splinter chair in 2043, but future Jones has a bigger problem to deal with--Deacon, leader of the West 7, is back and is helping a group of people with silver paint on their face get the splintering machine. One last thing Aaron...#whothefuckcares

I'm just hoping that this season finale brings us a really good conclusion to the 1st season. Something that will tell me don't cross this one off your list just yet. Fringe definitely did it. Hopefully 12 Monkeys can do it too.

Hey People,

S1 E11
Okay so I'm debating with myself over this episode. I'm not sure if this was a filler or not. We already knew what was mentioned in this episode, but we get it from Ramse's point of view. Now people are starting to hate Ramse, but I don't hate him at all. I understand his reasoning (making sure his son exists) and it's just as good of a reason as Cole's. I'm pretty sure Cole doesn't care about saving the world anymore because the only person he wants to save is Cassie.

There really isn't much to recap other than Ramse stabbing Cole, which led to Jones splintering him to 2015 permanently since his tether to 2043 has been severed. Aaron's boss, the senator, is now running for president (still better than the candidate who just announced he's running). In 2043, everyone is abandoning the ship except for Jones, but no one is surprised by that.

Theory
It's theory time people! So like I said before I've been debating with myself on some things like whether or not I liked this episode. Some say this eppy was good, but I'm leaning towards not so good because I didn't really learn anything new; however, this episode did introduce a new debate: is Ramse The Witness? I am also leaning towards no on this. For one, they never addressed Ramse as The Witness, but instead called him Traveler. And two, and this may be the biggest one, someone had foreseen Ramse coming and being locked up in jail. Now he could have lived long enough to live for the time machine to be created and then traveled, at an old age, back in time to tell Olivia that he was coming. He could have used the other time machine that Jones stole. But something just seems wrong about that idea. Instead, I think The Witness is Aaron. Why? Well remember when Olivia stopped Aaron before and tells him Cassie is important and they have a common goal of keeping her alive, well why would he listen to a bat shit crazy lady? I think he met with his old self and that's what changed his mind. After all, we don't know what happens to Aaron in the future.

We still don't know who Olivia's father is and for all we know, he may be The Witness. Maybe Aaron sleeps with a woman in the past or maybe it's not Aaron at all. I don't know. And also why did Ramse and Olivia not age throughout this entire episode? 30 years passed and nothing. Either they did a really terrible job over in the makeup department or something else is going on.

Hey People,

S1 E10
Looks like that rumor (check out the P.P.S.) I heard about might actually be spot on.

Cole was missing for most of the episode because he needed to recuperate for what might be his last jump, which I highly doubt. Cassie and Aaron were working on finding the doctor who created the virus. Here's a great idea, tell Cole to go back in time and kill this doctor, so then the doctor never ends up making the virus. It's just a thought. Anyway, Cassie finds the doctor, but decides not to kill him because what's the point when he already made the virus. Aaron, on the other hand, ran into Red Forrest Woman and seems to have made a deal with her in order to keep Cassie from dying because Cassie is very important. Obviously, it doesn't work if she isn't in the future, but again, whatever.

This show deals with a question that was at the heart of Fringe: how far would you go in order to save someone you love? It seems like Cole and Aaron are asking themselves the same question.

Out of all the people who survive in the world, I can't believe Jennifer Goines is one of them. I can't believe a group of women actually took her seriously. In 2043, she meets Ramse and tells him Cole can't stop the plague. Ramse asks her how did it start to which she answers only The Witness knows. She hands him a necklace for later use. Ramse goes back to his camp only to find his son motherless. He goes on a rampage and in the end, kills Max, who I'm not going to lie, I totally forgot about her ever since she left the West 7. He sends himself back in time to 1987, which makes him a very likely suspect to be The Witness. Cole was planning to go there anyway (to stop the plague, what else?) but now if he runs into Ramse, he'll kill him.

So Goines also mentions that death changes things. It can be both cause and effect. As we witnessed before, Cassie being taken, which would have most likely led to her death, changed the future. She would have died before her time. Since Goines said Cole can't stop the plague and Ramse is now in the past, who does Ramse have to kill to stop the plague from happening?

Theory
I have this theory guys that is kind of out there. What if next year they restart everything with a new Cole? That's right, I'm talking about a Groundhog Day scenario. The first episode of the 2nd season would be Cole meeting Cassie for the first time and throughout the season we could see what different choices everyone makes. It would be pretty cool.

Hey People,

S1 E9
See I knew it, I knew it, I KNEW it. Okay so there was a lot of back and forth between the years 2017, 2041, and 2043. Let's work our way backwards shall we?

In 2043, Jones and people are taking the core, which I was against last week, but for the story's sake, it needed to happen. It was a bloodbath and as I saw all the dead bodies that laid on the ground all I could think was "This is so wrong." I just want to add in that I found it quite difficult to believe Marcus's father would just kill people that he's known for 10 years just like that. It didn't really make much sense to me. Anyway, Jones gets her core. Yay her, but we also find out she was hiding a piece of paper that had the CURE on it and we're talking about the recent one. She then destroyed it. "What the fuck are you doing?" If there's a cure for the recent and the past virus, then why don't you send both of them back in the past so they can prepare. This may not make a lot of sense: Jones may be smart, but she's dumb as shit. If you can't stop it from happening then at least prepare for what's about to happen. So now that bitch can't be trusted and because of Ramse's ladylove, he now knows that Jones is a liar.

In 2041, we find out how Ramse and Cole meet Jones for the first time and if it weren't for Ramse, Cole would have never taken this time traveling gig. I bet he regrets that one.

In 2017, Cole makes it out of the Russia and back to Boston to meet with Cassie. Cassie is dying, but you don't even notice until she starts to have a small cough and then kaput--she's dead. Cassie mentions a lot has happened in 2 years and Cole says what and she responds with a I can't tell you because it'll set you off course. Hold on. What? Isn't that the point of all this? If he's on course and the virus still gets out, doesn't that mean you want him off course so he can change the past? By all means, please tell him what's about to happen so he knows what works and what doesn't. First Jones and now you. It's like all the scientists took a stupid pill in this episode. But let me just add how I thought there was something more between Cassie and Cole this time around. There's always something more between them, but this time I felt it coming more from Cassie. Too bad now that Cassie is dead and Cole witnessed it that's all he can think about, which is why he sides with Jones instead of Ramse.

Okay now about that scratch, I have to admit when I saw it I was pissed off because I thought it wouldn't make any sense. Why would the scratch disappear? I couldn't think of a logical reason so I went to the comment sections to see if anyone had any ideas. They were mostly bullshit. Someone even mentioned that they were in a loop so it reverted back, but that's bullshit because if they were on a loop then we wouldn't have gotten that episode where Cole did actually change the future. Granted, he put it back, but the point of that episode was the fact that he could change the future or he would have went back to the same old, same old since regardless of what he did wouldn't have changed the future. Think about it. Finally, I did find a plausible answer. What if Cole does something in the future that prevents him from making the scratch in the past. Ha now that was clever, but then the writer brought up why did the scratch disappear at that moment and I thought he had a point there, but that could be due to future Cole changing the course right then and there. Anyway, I hope that's the reason.

A lot of people loved this episode and think it's the best of the season so far because it went dark, but even though I applaud the darkness, I can't get over these stupid pills. Someone mentioned that you shouldn't analyze a time travel show because at some point it's not going to make sense. That's some bullshit. Half the fun of these shows is guessing where it will lead to next. Fringe did time and dimension travel and they made sense and it was brilliant. So stop with the bullshit answers people.

P.S. Wow that was a lot of writing glad this is the only show I'm recapping on Fridays right now.
P.P.S. I heard a great theory that suggest Ramse is The Witness, which kind of would be awesome.

Hey People,

Sorry for the lateness, this is what happens when you play GTA all night.

S3 E9
So what did we learn last week? No one gives a shit about Proctor other than his right hand man, his niece, and for some stupid reason Brock's ex-wife. That girl is so lonely it's actually sad to watch. But the actual take away of the show is this: When you want to kill a guy, just shoot him in the head. Stop talking and stop getting so close that you get your nose bit off. Damn these amateurs really ruined it for me. I hate stupid villains. There is nothing wrong with just taking a gun and shooting them in the head. I don't need villains to be clever with their demise. It's unnecessary.

Sorry about that, had to vent that out. Anyway, our heroes (can we call them heroes? Whatever that's what I'm going to do) were all taken except for Hood. So this season will end with our fallen hero saving hid comrades from demise. You know what that means. Lots of fighting, guns, and explosion. Hopefully this save will patch up the rift between Hood and Job. Save him first that'll show him!

In other news, Deva was arrested for smoking weed and Gordon was going to leave her there. I agreed with this tactic because nothing else was working. But it didn't last long because Hood took her home. Also, Gordon and Carrie might work things out and get back together. No, just no. I don't want to see that and I can't see that happening. Eww!

Remember tonight will be the season 3 finale so make sure you watch!


S1 E8
Nikita reunion and children everywhere! It was nice to see Xander Berkeley not playing as the villain, but I guess he kind of is the villain in this too, but I don't think so and here is why: yes diseases mutate, but that doesn't stop us from finding a cure. The flu mutates all the time, which is why the flu shot from this season didn't really work, but we still have the flu shot, so I wasn't really on Dr. Railly's side. They should be looking for a cure and I don't hate him for that. However, I do hate him for starting that coup. I think his Nikita persona got the best of him and took over. I'm against taking the core, but they need to in order to advance the story.

As for the kids, we found out Dr. Railly had a daughter that died and Ramse has a son with the love of his life. BTW, she is a blonde. There is such a thing called dirty blondes you know.

As for our hero, I was wondering how they were going to bring him back from the dead and the thing was he wasn't dead at all. I guess everyone can survive an explosion now The Blacklist and 12 Monkeys can be added to the list. Anyway, when Dr. Railly tried to bring him back, he jumped to 2017 where the plague already spread, which means he didn't stop it in 2015, which means there must be some other way the plague started. Any ideas?

12 Monkeys Renewed For 2nd Season!

Hey People,

Need I say more?

Well in case I do I just want to say how much I am enjoying the show. I like the fact that what Cole does in the past affects his future. 12 Monkeys has been a delightful surprise and a much needed one since for me Helix has gone down the drain.

As a Nikita fan I love seeing Nerd and Ryan every week. Noah Bean is basically playing the same character since both of his characters worked for the government, but Aaron Stanford did a total 180. He went from nerd to killer and it's just interesting to see him like that every week.

If you haven't checked it yet, I think you should and also check out the movie (by the same name) which started this whole mess because that is a cult classic and is a very good one on top of it. It caught my attention.

Hey People,

Okay so I'm speechless right now because Cole is dead and the Cole that we last saw is going to die so I'm just trying to figure out how we will see Cole tonight.

I'll tell you right now, I am not a fan of the whole "chaos is better than order" or "to have order we need chaos first" plans that some villains take on. It makes no sense to me so when we had a Snowden type traitor, the CIA thought it was a good idea to use the virus, Cole and Cassie have been chasing after this whole time, to take him out. What a brilliant plan! My sarcasm at its finest. They seriously chalked it up to they'll die before they can reach anyone and then what do you know, someone calls a medical helicopter because they're coughing up blood and the CIA were shitting in their pants because they didn't know this could happen. Really 12 Monkeys? I like your show and all, but don't give me that. You're better than that. I wasn't on board with the whole send a virus to kill people because it's inhumane and is something the U.S. wouldn't do. We have all kinds of ways to kill a group of people, this isn't one of them. I mean, Snowden is still alive hiding in Russia, we didn't send a virus to kill him...yet. But for a TV show, the government is always bad so I'll allow it, but I have to draw the line somewhere and that is line is stupidity.

Hopefully that's the last really stupid part of the show and tonight will amaze me on how Cole is still alive.


S3 E8
Chayton is finally dead. I actually thought no one could kill him. He literally had half of his stomach shot up and man was still breathing like he's was waiting for breakfast to come.

For a second I actually thought Hood was done with Banshee for awhile, but he does have unfinished business with Proctor and Siobhan wanted him to stay,

Speaking of Proctor man and his woman were taken and it's all because of Rebecca. I said it before and I'll say it again, if Proctor dies this season it's because of Rebecca.

Speaking of Rebecca, didn't she have a lovely scene with Burton? When she started flirting with him I said to my screen, "He has no penis" and what do you know. It doesn't seem that he has one. I only said it because that man doesn't seem like a lover at all, but is all fight. It was nice that we got to see a little of his background by showing us viewers how Proctor and him met. I guess that explains why he is so loyal to Proctor. He saved his life. But man is Burton built! So that's what he's been hiding under those suits.

Speaking of backgrounds, we also got a taste of Sugar's. If it's not for money or glory, it must be for love. Sugar always gave away his money to the son of a boxer because Sugar messed him up so badly he couldn't even speak anymore. Turns out the son was taking advantage of Sugar's generosity since his dead has been dead for several years. Thankfully, Job was there to set the record straight. Job might be a trans, but he'll kick your ass.

I'm actually really looking forward to the rest of the season because I can't wait to see the Colonel track down everyone. He already knows about Carrie's involvement. You can because of the way he placed his hand on the table. People, get ready for a lot of action coming soon.

Last episode, Cole had to save Cassie without running into himself so he teamed up with Cassie's ex, Aaron, to help save her. It didn't even seem like Cassie needed any help since she basically took off and ran from her kidnappers. I thought that was way too easy especially when she was under the influence, but whatever. At least Aaron knows Cassie isn't crazy so now Cassie has someone other than Cole to help her in 2015.

Once Cole saves Cassie 2043 is corrected and he returns back to the people he knows. At least we know now that if Cassie dies, Ramse becomes in charge of the West 7.

It's revealed that Cole has a limited amount of splintering he can do before it kills him. I'm guessing the limit is how long this show will go for. Next stop, Operation Troy.





S3 E7
Okay people it seems I've got my blondes mixed up. It happens sometimes. Emily is Brock's ex-wife, while Lisa is Emmett's widow. Either way, both blondes are dumb because they keep helping out the bad guys of the story. Lisa dies in the end, but I think it's a good thing because she seemed dead already. At least this way she can be with Emmett. Emily is an idiot and a nympho so who cares what happens to her. If she honestly thinks she can change Proctor than she's a bigger idiot than I thought. This won't end well for her.

This was a pretty slow episode except for the heist which was executed beautifully. I love how they shot the scenes for it. Made me think like I was in it with them. Reminds me of GTA V.

Hood is seeing Siobhan everywhere he goes. It's so bad that it almost messed up the heist. Now Job won't even talk to him because it could have cost him his life. Anastasia and Gordon had to deal with Deva. Seriously girl if your boyfriend pulls out a gun on your father, you have to think maybe you're not hanging around the right group. I thought when they got home, she would have been yelled at for a couple of hours, but nope they just had sex in the kitchen instead, you know like normal parents do. Deva might be right about her parents only caring when convenient. We did get to see a kickass scene of parents kicking teenagers asses. I bet that's what every parent dreams about.

I'm keep telling you Rebecca is a sly fox. She'll gut you when she gets the chance. She's already working behind her uncle's back. I'm telling you if anyone is going to kill Proctor it will most likely be her.

Brock and Hood are going to New Orleans to track down Chayton. Did you stick around after the credits? The colonel looked pissed. He definitely won't take this lying down.

Cassie and Cole find The Night Room and what do you know, Scarface and Jennifer are there as well. So there was no point in killing Henri as Cassie points out, but then again maybe it was all for the best. If Cole didn't kill Henri, then they would have found it sooner than they did, which probably means they would have taken it since they would have had a lot more time to torture Jennifer for the code. Like I said, maybe it was for the best.

FINALLY, the future has changed with the 1st of the virus destroyed. I was seriously rolling my eyes when I saw Jennifer punching the code in to save Cole. Glad we get a different outcome than I anticipated. This only proves my theory that the future can be changed with a big enough change in the past. Does that mean no more best friend and German Doc. I doubt it. Their timeline could still be going and Cole is in another timeline now that he has significantly changed the past or Jones and Ramse's timeline actually did poof and now are doing something else and living somewhere else since West 7 occupy the facility now.

But it still doesn't seem like Cole changed the future enough to stop the virus from going viral. Now how is he going to make it back to the year 2015 without the crazy Doc? Also, Cassie was taken by Scarface.

Sidenotes: Love how Jennifer didn't give 2 shits that Cole killed her father. Wasn't at all surprised that Cole wasn't the 1st person to travel back in time, which leads me to believe it was Jones who sent the virus back in time in the 1st place. Scarface is also working with someone from the future, who might also be one of the Doc's failed attempts or even future Cole (plot twist!) or maybe just a crazy person (Deacon perhaps?)





S3 E6
Hood was really out of it last episode due to Siobhan dying. He even imagined a place where he wasn't Lucas Hood. The real Hood would be alive and acting as the sheriff of the town and Siobhan would still be alive. Sad thing is he wouldn't have gotten to know her. I doubt he would have left Ana alone, but it was his daydream not mine. He snapped out of it when Job asked him what he needed. I'm guessing his answer was Chayton dead. Hood had him right where he wanted him and he still got away. Why can't they make it easy? I understand waking him up so he would know who killed him, but, ugh, just shoot him already. Now he's alive and who knows when we'll see him again.

Ana completed another task for the heist by getting the prints of the colonel.

Proctor dealt with his mother's passing by, of course, having sex with Brock's ex. I swear that woman is a nympho. He may be getting soft though, He made that drug deal that Rebecca wasn't down for. Me thinks she will start planning Proctors demise soon. Proctor created a monster and I don't think he'll be able to control her, which leads me to believe Proctor will die this season. I mean, why not? Everyone else is dying.

Also, Deva is still acting up, but what else is new?

Bye-Bye For Now Helix

Hey People,

I love how I just started recaping this show and I just binged watched it to catch up to this season and I'm already giving up on it. Helix has always been ridiculously out there with its plot and I thought it was fun the 1st season. I couldn't stop myself from watching the next episode because I needed to know what happened next. Then this season happened. Now I know they couldn't keep doing the NARVIK story so I'm glad there was another virus on the loose, but I feel like this story line isn't going anywhere this season and if it is going somewhere, as of right now, I don't care. Helix has become just plain ridiculous.

I won't totally give up on it though. I'll check up with it when this seasons ends to see if I want to catch up and watch the 3rd season. There might not even be a 3rd season if ratings continue the way they do, but you never know with cable shows.

I was going to write about Siobhan finally finding out everything and even more than we know since she knew Hood's real name, but that doesn't matter anymore because she's dead. I was just warming up to them being together and now she's dead. I liked her as a character. Damn, Banshee can you stop killing your badass female characters? First Nola and now Siobhan. Ugh!

Sidenote Proctor's mother dies, but who cares really? Maybe Rebecca will take her grandmother's advice and run.

Forget Proctor, Chatyon is going down!








S1 E4
Not much happened this episode. The West 7 invaded the compound, but then retreated when future Cole came because he knew what was already going to happen. The only thing is Max betrayed the 7 and is now with Cole and Ramse. Cole claims their romance won't start again because of Cassie, but I'm pretty sure this will be a love triangle.

In other news, Cassie found The Night Room. I wish this show would show how fate can be changed. Everything so far has been predetermined so far, except for the scratched watch.

Day 4

Alan finds out his little brother is working for Ilaria. Finally, someone knows.

Julia and Sarah are both left to die in their time. I'm pretty sure they'll both be fine since they're immortal and all. I'm including the baby as well.

Kyle finds out it's all in the honey. The toxin is in the honey which is making everyone sick.

Someone needs to kill Hiroshi. He was badass before, but now the man isn't making any sense. He's just sad now.

Sergio is back and is still working for Ilaria. Hell, Peter is taking orders from him. At least, Alan knows Julia is head of the organization now.

Damn it Banshee, I am getting sick and tired of you leaving me on cliffhangers. Last time it was Siobhan finding out and now it's a killing spree at the Cadi. Just please don't leave me on another one tonight.

Carrie was a free spirit last week and basically did a bunch of nothing. She quit her job and just roamed for a bit. Deva was quite busy as she ended up stealing a game for her brother. I was upset that she did it, but proud at the same time. Welcome to the family business!

Sugar and Job completed the first step to their heist, but the heist might be on hold since Hood says he's leaving, but with everything that is happening at the Cadi, I doubt it. I wish he did end up killing Proctor.

Proctor is being prosecuted again since Gordon got right and changed his mind. He's sitting in jail. Maybe a flying bullet can kill him, but that would be so unsatisfying.

Siobhan decided not to turn over Hood, but she wants Hood gone from her life and out of Banshee. I was just starting to like them too. Hood and Carrie seem like friends now. Just look at the way they said goodbye to each other.

The Native Indians are ready to strike back against Proctor and I say let them take each other out.


S1 E3
Cole needs information about the doctor that got away from the massacre that crazy lady did on her peers. He goes back to the year 2014.

In 2014, Railly is in Haiti trying to prevent a virus from spreading. She thinks this might be the virus that starts the end of the world, but in the end, it was just river fever. Railly freaked out and decided they should kill anyone who leaves the quarantine. Girl seemed really off her meds. It was sad how Cole telling her what will happen affected her life.

Cole found the doctor and avoided Railly to prevent any different future outcomes with her. The pale guy with the hat was there to find out about The Night Room. Cole gave him the scare he has in 2015. This obviously means he's done this before and therefore nothing will change in the year 2043. They need to do something drastically different to change the course. Anyway when Cole got the info from the doctor, he knew the doctor wouldn't make it off the island since military were waiting to kill him, so Cole had to kill him first. I'm guessing he killed him so The Night Room would remain a secret from the pale guy. I like how dark Cole is, but simultaneously, he's trying to do the good of the world.

Back in 2043, a girl named Max finds Ramse. Max used to run with Ramse and Cole before Ramse and Cole split. She tells Ramse that she left The West 7, but what he doesn't know is she's still with them and they're coming to the facility.

Day 3

I'm not going to lie. I had to replay the beginning of last week's episode since when I watching I kept thinking she wasn't doing what I thought she was doing and then when she removed her glove that confirmed it for me. I wasn't paying attention to what they were saying so I had to rewind.

So Kyle gets beat up by children while Sarah and Peter go back for the ship samples they left at the shack where the dead girl is no longer. There, an infected man tries to eat them, but what else is new? They know they can't trust the people on the island and so they decided they need Alan's help.

30 years in the future, Hiroshe is rocking long hair. Long hair, don't care. He captures Julia and drugs her to find out the truth of why she's there. She admits she's still working for the immortals and that she's dying and looking for a cure. Hiroshe decides to help, but first they feast. Julia screams her head off when she sees her dead mother and brother sitting at the table with her.

Hey People,

S1 E2
I feel as though the people that Cole works for have no idea what they are dong. They sent him to North Korea in 2006. Anyway, Cole does make it back to Railly's timeline. Railly's friend Anthony gets killed for asking too many questions. It's a warning for Railly to stop searching for answers.

Meanwhile, Cole is in a mental institution trying to get info from Goines's daughter Jennifer, who only likes primary numbers and 12 isn't primary, but 3, 2, and 2 are (3 x 2 x 2 = 12). My nerd side is showing. Aaron tells her about Cole and North Korea. Man was there for like a second. She tracks down Cole to the mental institute and that's when Railly meets Mr. Lavender again. Mr. Lavender takes Jennifer because she knows something about a room.

In the story so far, Cole keeps meeting people he's already met before, but he hasn't met them in his timeline yet. So I'm thinking Cole can still change the future, but it depends on what he does from here on out. As of right now, Cole's timeline hasn't changed enough to prevent the virus outbreak.


Day 2

Alan seems depressed as shit and we still don't know what he's doing there. He was probably was looking for Julia there and started to actually like it. Cults can do that to ya.

Peter is scared of his past experience with a virus. I still don't trust him and he can kick rocks for all I care. The new guy is...well still being the new guy. He did get sexually assaulted by one of the girl's on the island. Girl is deprived.

Sarah admits to Alan that she is pregnant with his child. Me on the other hand is trying to figure out how when she only had sex with Alan a few days before she became immortal. And how is she experiencing morning sickness? You don't experience that until your 6 weeks pregnant. Sarah has some explaining to do.

In the future, Julia is supposedly following Alan's clues one of them being a map on a hipbone. So Alan may or may not be dead. My money is on he's not. We still don't know what's the deal with this San Jose guy.

Kids on the island are being sacrificed to the infected and the boy was getting better too.

I was a little upset that they didn't do an intro like they did in the previous episode. I really liked it.

This was one graphic episode that I actually had to hide my face because I couldn't watch, but you know I had to peek. When it came down to Proctor's henchman and Nola, I had my money on Nola. Damn, that was a really good fight, and boy was I wrong. Her throat will forever be in my brain. I'm actually sad about her death. We didn't know her for long, but when she was on camera I loved every minute of her. I'm guessing with the death of Littlestone's brother and now Nola, this will enrage him even more. But I wonder who will feel the blow--Proctor or the noob cop.

Hood was captured and then again captured by some very large guy. Was that a fat suit? But I was never worried because Hood always knows how to get out of situations like that and even ended up saving the fed's life. He made the right decision. If Hood killed him some other fed would just come after him.

Proctor's mother wants him to find love and make sure his niece doesn't stay with him. Does she know? Maybe the walls are thin there. Proctor's father visited his sick wife in the end.

Sugar and Job were doing preparations for the heist by getting ids. Why do they need 6 though? There are only 4 of them.

Siobhan now knows Hood isn't Hood and this relationship is about to get more complicated and interesting. I liked Hood and Siobhan together, but still hold on to Carrie and Hood, but now I'm starting to root for Hood and Siobhan.

Carrie wasn't in this episode at all and with so much going on in this episode, she didn't need to be. I am however going to miss the fantasy of Carrie and Nola fighting it out. That would have been cool and hot to see.

Helix Binge

Hey People,

So I just binged watched Helix and it's intrigued me. I shall be adding it to my list on Fridays. Since the 2nd season is going on right now, I won't be doing a review for it, but instead a weekly recap. So make sure you check for that.

Damn, this poster is freaking me out.

Hood and the gang were researching the base for their heist. Turns out Carrie was sleeping with the enemy, but once she found out, she ended it with a guy. Sad, really. I kinda liked how he serviced her all the time. But I am glad we found out they are stealing from thieves, now I don't feel guilty anymore.

Rebecca has gone off the rails. She's just killing everybody now. You created a monster Proctor. Speaking of Proctor, his mother has moved in with them since she's dying of pancreatic cancer. I say let her die with her family on the farm, not in some place she doesn't know. I bet she'll die of a heart attack, if she finds out Proctor is banging his niece. 

Littlestone is not that bright if he thinks sending 2 guys to kidnap Proctor and Rebecca would be enough, especially when they have that psychopath protecting them. Man is not smart and you need to be if your messing with Proctor.

There was 3 great moments between characters last episode. 1) Hood and Siobhan - they're talking about moving in together. Cute. 2) Carrie and Nola - love girls that can fight. Did anyone else get a vibe of Nola and Carrie? 3) Hood and Deva - he's never listened to Gordon before, I don't know why he should start now.

Speaking of Gordon, he has really gone down the hole. I thought he was going to kill himself last night, but he actually made the decision to turn his life around. Surprised I was. Gordon is who I think is at the door in the end to kill the #1 problem in his life, but I'm most likely wrong. It's probably someone we've seen, but haven't seen yet this season.

12 Monkeys Pilot Review

Hey People,

So I just watched the show 12 Monkeys and yes I have seen the movie. It was years ago and I saw it while surfing the channels and decided to watch it. Loved it until I saw that ending. That ending ruined the movie for me so I'm hoping the same doesn't happen in this series and I'm pretty sure it won't. Let me explain.

Summary: Time travel, save the world, nuff said.

With that extensive summary, you should be up to date about what's happening in this episode. Now when you have a time travel plot 2 things can happen

  1. What happens in the past doesn't affect the future.
  2. What happens in the past does affect the future.
This show is leaning towards the latter. You can tell by the watch being scratched. If it were the former, then the watch would have been scratched when he found it. However, I was confused when Frost told our heroes that he had already seen Cole in 1987. But I came to the conclusion that Cole and the gang in the year 2043 have already tried this before and failed. Therefore, Cole's present is someone else's past since someone had to warn somebody else in the year 2043 to seek an alternative solution. Jeez, explaining time travel is difficult, but fun. Hopefully that made sense.

Now the search for the 12 Monkeys behind this virus is on!

Cast: I was happy to see 2 vets from Nikita (Aaronn Stanford and Noah Bean) and a vet from Fringe (Kirk Acevedo). As well as Amanda Schull from Suits (which I have yet to see) and (Pretty Little Liars). 

Judgement: This could have been an epic fail, but it wasn't and I'm willing to go along for the ride.
