I stopped watching at episode 10! Now, let me say that I was really looking forward to this show and I'm very disappointed it didn't live up to my expectations. What made me stop watching? It's not the acting, not the effects - it's the story.

It feels like the writers didn't know where to go with this around episode 7. Cole and Cassy stopped the outbreak, everything seemed to be fine! Guess what? They didn't! Somehow the story must go on and thus the outbreak wasn't really stopped. I suspected this would happen, but it threw me off anyways.

I think the two hour movie it was based on just hadn't enough juice to fuel a whole TV show, so the writers introduced some other characters and brought more storylines into play. Unfortunately, this didn't really help and made the whole show more confusing than interesting. If they had sticked to the original storyline, explained some parts of it in more depth, especially some characters, I believe they could've made a great 20 episode show.

There was so much potential. Instead the show was convoluted with characters and storylines, which I think are just there to stretch the whole show over more episodes.

Hi! I think you should watch the last 3 episodes. Or at least give a chance to episode 11, this is the best episode of the season, and it explains many things about the story. Can't wait for season 2. ;)

@dlinsin-deleted-1474629962 Sometime it is really good... They made like 2 or 3 episodes in each season that were amazing, i was watching with mouth open... Then episode ended, next week they went back in time and make everything as it were before... And they repeat this over and over. This show is so good but these "forced" returning to revive dead character is boring. They kill someone so they can go back in time to save him. First season was awesome, it lost breath in second, but episodes 9,10,12 were great. if there was not Jennifer it would be boring

I tried to look for the confusion part you are saying. Couldn't find it.

@dlinsin-deleted-1474629962 <br /> <br /> If you wanted only another 12 Monkeys movie then this would've been a bit of a disappointment, but if you're after much more then this is a series that you perhaps should have stuck with. <br /> <br /> I've only gotten through the first two seasons but I cannot wait for season 3 and 4! It's taken me this long to dedicate the time to start watching 12 Monkeys, but it's a show you need to pay attention as it jumps many times, but it's worth it!
