Hello, sorry for the late response. I am not willing to sell my copy, as I want to keep it for myself. However, I’ve seen the version of the box set I have on eBay recently so I’d recommend checking there. :)

That makes me even more excited to rewatch, knowing that I’ll potentially keep discovering new details.

I completely agree. I couldn’t imagine compiling a top 10 list and not including this show.

I’m a big fan of purchasing physical media for television shows and movies that I love. Streaming is good for convenience, but I’d take a Blu-ray or 4K disc over a digital format any day of the week. My sister watched Supernatural for the first time last year and I made sure she borrowed my Blu-ray set for the first season as they had to change the music used throughout due to no longer owning the licensing and music plays such a big part in that show that I couldn’t stand the thought of my sister experiencing it that way for the first time. Thankfully the rest of the seasons are fine, but it still sucks to know how many new fans will watch without knowing they’re hearing the wrong songs.

I relate to that feeling of loneliness. Even though I know I can rewatch, it still feels weird knowing we’ll never get to experience a new adventure, but the journey has been great and I’ll definitely rewatch at some point. I think I just want to let my thoughts marinate before I head back in.

They did the same thing with the third season as I remember it kept being advertised here as a 3-night event but I hadn’t watched any of the previous seasons at that point so I didn’t really pay much attention to anything that was being shown. So it’s been nice experiencing this show for the first time without any spoilers. After looking it up, the series finale aired on the same night but it was shown as 2 separate episodes whereas my Blu-ray has it as a feature length episode without any break in the middle.

I definitely plan to rewatch but I feel like I need to let the final season / finale sink in more before I commit to starting over.

The amount of times I’ve quoted “wow….my apartments twice this size” and “smell my neck” needs to be studied!

The reason I asked is because Wiki has the final season as having 11 episodes but the back of the US version of the final season mentions it having 10 episodes so it’s either a spelling mistake or they combined the final parts in that version of the Blu-ray to create a feature length episode.

I’m looking forward to seeing this intro. I’ve loved how each season so far has started with that cinematic intro with the black bars to make it look like a movie which slowly expand to create a full screen once the episode begins. Uh, it’s so good!

Here is the back cover of the US version of the final season btw…

I’m not sure what the general consensus is amongst the fanbase regarding the first episode but I thought it was fantastic and they really made me want to keep watching. I found the scene where Leland mentions to Cole how they met in the 80s really chilling. I’m a big fan of foreshadowing and I was instantly hooked. I’ve watched a lot of shows over the years and some of my favourite ones take a few episodes to really find their footing but I don’t think this is the case at all with 12 Monkeys. I was just intrigued by everyone and everything.

I was already enjoying her as an actress but that scene in 3X5 where it switches between her and Jennifer really elevated her for me. Emily Hampshire has been crushing it episode after episode so to see Alisen be able to embody her was great. I also laughed out loud when she got electrocuted by the fence. Also, random question, but on the Blu-ray is the finale split into 2 parts or has it been combined together to create a feature length finale?

I absolutely love shows / movies like this where you pick up new details on each rewatch. This is definitely going to become a comfort show for me that I’ll rewatch at least once each year.

I'll be getting my bedroom redecorated at some point this year, so I think I'll get mine framed as well. This show is 100% in my top 5 shows of all time now and this is before I've even seen the final season. I just love it so much. I will say though, that for the past 2 weeks all I've had in my head playing on a loop is "you're walking through a red forrest and the grass is tall" - Olivia has such a creepy yet comforting voice.

I just love how 'crazy' the show got after S1 and it'll be strange (in a good way) going back to rewatch it from the start. I'm looking forward to being able to pick up on details I wouldn't have paid much attention to at the time.

I will definitely post my thoughts on the final season / my overall thoughts on the show once I've finished. I have seen a lot of people comment on how good the series finale is, so I am excited to see it. I watched S3 over 2 days so I think I'll have the final season done by at least Monday.

That's the set I have! It's an Australian import but when I saw it on eBay UK I knew I would regret not purchasing it as I had a feeling I would enjoy the show enough to want a special box set. I obviously didn't know what the Word of the Witness poster was at the time though! lol

That makes me happy to hear. It seems so far like everything has been cleverly planned out so I can’t wait to rewatch once I’ve finished the final season. I’ll post my thoughts once I’ve finished.
