A man from the post-apocalyptic future, Cole uses a dangerous, untested method of time travel to get from 2043 to the present day. He is on a mission to locate and rid the world of the source of the plague that will eventually annihilate the human race. Assisting him is Dr. Cassandra Railly, a virologist who must decide whether to do harm in order to save the world -- regardless of the fact that she has taken the Hippocratic oath. The sci-fi series is based on Terry Gilliam's 1995 film, which starred Bruce Willis as Cole.

You think you know The Witness, and then 12 Monkeys completely turns everything on its head during [the] Season 3 finale. Go to Full Review
Rick Mele Paste Magazine 01/31/2019
[The creators had] to juggle time-travel paradoxes, the post-apocalypse and the nefarious organization behind it all [and] make believers out of skeptical fans of the Terry Gilliam cult classic that inspired the sci-fi series, mostly succeeding. Go to Full Review
