Season 1 Reviews
Wall Street Journal
Nancy DeWolf Smith
Watching it can be like trying to untangle a ball of spaghetti. It also is difficult to surrender to the story because one of the characters looks like Naomi Watts fused with a Barbie, and can't do much to [relay] emotion except swing her ponytail. Enjoy.
Detroit News
Mekeisha Madden Toby
Science-fiction nerds will enjoy the pace, mythology and mysteries the cinematic offering skillfully weaves.
Entertainment Weekly
Jeff Jensen
Moreover, I'm so exhausted by everything it represents -- specifically its bleak worldview -- that I can't be entertained by what it is.
Huffington Post
Maureen Ryan
Science-fiction stories often revolve around moral conundrums and ethical dilemmas, but if the viewer doesn't care about the people wrestling with those difficult choices, it can be hard to stay invested in the tale.
Los Angeles Times
Mary McNamara
Perfectly paced, smartly adapted and studded with moments of philosophy and emotion, 12 Monkeys is a capable and addictive addition to television's doomsday Weltanschauung and SyFy's still-struggling lineup.
AV Club
Emily L. Stephens
It's a time-travel procedural with Cole as the laconic gumshoe stealthily tracking a handful of clues through the past, boasting a faint sneer and a killer right hook.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
You may need a chronometer to figure out what time period it is. If you're really smart, though, you'll get an alarm clock.
Entertainment Weekly
Jonathon Dornbush
12 Monkeys has consistently hinted at Jones' past, but in "Paradox" the vague teases turn into concrete details.
New York Times
Neil Genzlinger
Anyone too invested in the original is in danger of being consumed by the urge to compare. A little of that is fine, inevitable even, but too much of it might cause you not to see that this is a well-made TV show with a lot to recommend it.
Denver Post
Joanne Ostrow
12 Monkeys won't hook those who aren't already fans of the genre. The characters are mostly two-dimensional.
Vox
Emily St. James
Though 12 Monkeys is deeply silly, with the sort of goofy, time-stream-altering shenanigans you'd expect from a time travel show, it's also haunted and sad, riven with grief, as befits a show set in part after an apocalyptic plague.
Newsday
Verne Gay
Intelligent adaptation absent the dark humor, satire -- or horror -- of the original.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
The series doesn't stray too far from the standard, gloomy/serious-sci-fi palette but also occasionally erupts into cool visuals that should appeal to the sci-fi (er, Syfy) crowd.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
If other aspects of the show were more engaging, perhaps this spiral down into confusion and illogic wouldn't matter. Perhaps then we'd want to set our DVRs in the present, in order to watch the show in the future.
Variety
Brian Lowry
The problem, as always, is that the time-travel element can be disorienting from a narrative standpoint.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Matt Zoller Seitz
None of the performers can do much to enliven a show that, judging from the two episodes sent to critics, is comprised mainly of padding.
AV Club
Noel Murray
There are only so many times a source can be duped before the quality starts to degrade.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
If the show can settle in, let its cast play character instead of plot, and work its themes instead of its twists, 12 Monkeys could work.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
12 Monkeys revels in dispiritingly routine sci-fi action.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
12 Monkeys seems to have staked out a fertile alternate universe.
