Hi, everyone! It's a little early, but there is some info here. In the meantime, here is the thread for seasons 1 & 2. This is the little show that could and did. I'll be back with more as the season 3 debut is set.

That's the spirit! Here's the whole thing I linked in the OP: quote:For fans anticipating 12 Monkeys season 3 on Syfy, speculation doesn’t stop during the long hiatus. Filming began in Toronto in October of 2016 and wrapped as March of 2017 began, and after the debut of the new trailer at New York Comic Con, news has been coming in that is sure to have everyone anticipating some surprising time periods, amazing guest roles, and new missions for the intrepid time travelers. quote:What decades will 12 Monkeys visit in season 3? How about the 80s? Terry Matalas recently tweeted this enticing picture from the set. quote:And of course there was this tweet from the set of 12 Monkeys season 3 featuring a picture of a new cast member, Hannah Waddingham (see announcement below). quote:The 12 Monkeys season 3 cast keeps getting better and better. The most recent news from Nerdist is that Hannah Waddingham (the "shame nun" from Game of Thrones) and Faran Tahir (from Star Trek, Iron Man, and many other genre favorites) will be joining the cast in recurring roles, both as baddies. Waddingham will be playing Magdalena, "a member of an apocalyptic cult charged with protecting the Witness," and Tahir will portray a resident of Titan who is a "devout enforcer of the Army of the 12 Monkeys." quote:But the future isn’t the only new location the time travelers in 12 Monkeys will visit! Matalas told Entertainment Weekly that the distant past is also in the mix. “In Season 3, the stakes have never been more personal for our time travelers,” the showrunner says. “The adventure will take them to their own future as well as further back in time than they’ve ever been before. They’ll face their darkest hour — an all-new threat with deeply emotional consequences for heroes and villains alike.” I didn't bold anything because the whole thing is loving incredible.

Looks like the show's getting a full run! http://www.spoilertv.com/2017/03/12-monkeys-renewed-for-4th-season.html IIRC, Terry Matalas said the plan was always for 4 seasons. Apparently Syfy has enough faith in them to play it out.

FTFY. It's been a weird wild ride and as it gets weirder it gets better. "OK, we figured out the storyline for last season after we each took 12 tabs and watched the Langoliers. That was good, but I feel it was a little too restrained. So, we've invited all the Syfy executives for an "all you can handle" liquid buffet. Instead of a movie, we're going to have strobe lights and a lot of industrial ambient noise. I'm pretty sure it's going to be amazing but if anyone wants to add anything, feel free. Before you say anything, yes Joe, we'll have a tub filled with cockroaches. You don't have to ask, it's in your contract. That's why we have those things."

I do. I also only personally know 2 other people who watch the show so I am also sad.  I always wondered if this show was going to face death by lack of TV ratings (I bet including DVR numbers came just in time). Thank you for the good news all around.

The end of season 2 felt like it was running out of steam, both in plot and budget. I cannot think of what they're going to do for another 20 episodes.

 Dude. Please. Our last thread was generally upbeat and positive. I know I struggled at first with the introduction of the Primaries and time being somehow sentient(-ish.) Still, the show continued to be equal parts mind-fuckery, heavy drama, and laughs. The characters remained awesome. We became invested in our awesome little show and we're very happy with the new support it appears to be getting. This isn't a thread for hate-watching. So I implore you: would you tone down the disdain and condescension, pretty please? I'm a special snowflake and I like my safe space or whatever.

There are few networks and network shows that could probably pull off the Netflix like release, but the addiction factor of this show might warrant the realise pattern. I wish this had been a thing back when I was hooked on Lost and 24. I really have to wonder if fewer people would have given up on  if ABC had tried a release like this.

Feels like a long time to go, but it's not. Not really. So here are a couple things to enjoy if you haven't already: Here's the full Season 3 trailer (sorry about the commercial intro). 12 Monkeys showrunner talks 'going inward' in Season 3, adding Christopher Lloyd.

That trailer totally spoils who's playing the Witness, if you want to avoid knowing that. I don't think it's a big deal, myself, but just in case. It's James Callis, if you can't tell from the voice and the hair.

Despite not really having any idea what was going on in the first episode (I had to keep pausing it to check the series Wikia) I increasingly enjoyed it the more episodes I watched. Going to go back and watch the first two seasons at some point. Dug the music choices, the kickass period costuming and James Callis effortlessly outacting everyone else on screen and stealing the entire series. Didn't like the constant pop culture references so much, but heyo.

Just four more days. Then I have to stay away and binge-watch before I can comment. Thanks Mr. Flunchy for not spoiling anything (much) and giving us hope for Season 3. I want to ask about how things end but that would be borrowing trouble, so let's keep things spoiler-free.

Two more days, motherfuckers! And it just so happens that I have 2 episodes left of my S2 rewatch! This is such a goddamn good show, and reading that James Callis steals it this season is pretty impressive considering the chemistry among all the leads and the presence of Christopher Lloyd.

I think we should do an episode by episode, week by week thread. At least spread it out somewhat because otherwise it's "watch 12 hours or whatever over a week and don't post til you're done, come in and post your review and speculation for Season 4 and read everyone else doing the same thing."
