I have loved this show so far and the acting and mysteries etc. Are definitely very cool.
However I am starting to get a little worried that this is going very much towards the "Lost" vibe.
While "Lost" was also a fantastic show in terms of acting, directing etc. In the very end what annoyed me was how much of the mystery was there just to be mysterious.
Watching the second season, I kept finding myself a tiny bit annoyed whenever yet another weird mystery was introduced, be it a symbol, object, thing, event... mainly because I can't stop myself from thinking "Will this be relevant in any way in the long run? Is this just one of those there's-a-mysterious-fog-creature or hatch or light etc. That is never mentioned again or explained in aaaany way, ever.
Because that kind of mystery writing eventually just ends up annoying me, since the writer can reach into their behind and pull out absolutely anything and never circle back to it.
"Ok next there's a llama in a red hat that whispers the words "paleontological" and "spatula"!" aand that's it, forgotten one season later, no explanation, it was just there to be weird.
Still, will keep on watching, but if this has an ending one day where it's just on the level of "it was all in his head!" and there is no attempt at even tying some theme-logic towards all of it, then consider this review at least 2-3 points lower...

This show was so so so much better than I expected. I thought that the whole premise didn't have much potential, but then it was something else. However, I am still left with so many questions that need to be answered especially after the last scenes of season 2 finale (which isn't necessarily a negative point). I just think that we deserved at least a few answers before having to wait for season 3. But I've got to say that after the finale, I was mind-blown!
I just hope that the creators of the show keep it at this level and why not even improve it. I'm tired of good shows getting completely messed up by creators. This one has potential. If all the questions are answered logically and interestingly, and if we get an intriguing ending which includes everybody going home, this will surely be one of the greatest shows out there.

Season 1 & 2 were lit, but they are unnecessarily stretching the episodes of season 3 which is irritating. Season 3 episode was good, but after that simply they are building up some moments that is not getting us emotionally connect with the situation and I mostly fast forwarded several unwanted conversations with the characters. It was very thrilling previously, but now became a drama which seems inappropriate. I think after the first episode in season 3, rest of the 8 episodes can be actually compressed in to 3 episodes max. May be they have plans for another season. But this method of stretching episodes are not ideal as most of the fans find it irritating, including me. Hope they corrects the issue in next season.
Way better than I thought it would be based on some of the negative reviews on here. So good that I binged the first two seasons during a long weekend. Can't wait for the third season to come out. Great premise for a show with some similarities to shows like Lost and Wayward Pines, but different enough that it didn't feel like I was watching the same show. I definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys horror/mystery type shows with some gore. Very enjoyable and fun watch. I just hope it gets more seasons, or at least enough so we get answers to all of the questions I still have. One of the best shows I've seen in awhile.
From is a show built on suspense, mystery, and constant tension in a town filled with secrets. But by Episode 6 of Season 3, fans are starting to wonder: how long can the show keep us guessing without giving us any answers?
This episode brings all the usual creepy vibes, and the characters remain on edge. Yet, despite being deep into the third season, we're still left with more questions than ever. Instead of giving us any real answers, it feels like the show just adds more layers to the mystery.
If From keeps holding back without revealing anything, it might end up losing viewers who want at least a glimpse of the truth. Right now, the mystery is still gripping-but we're all waiting for a little more light in the darkness.

Did you know
- TriviaThe town set was built specifically for the series in North Beaver Bank, Nova Scotia.
The site, known as the Beaver Bank Villa has a long history, and many years ago contained housing units, a community hall, fire station, school, church, convenience store, etc. (all demolished by 2004) to support the workers of a nearby military radar base which operated in the 1950's and 1960's. The paved streets and driveways were all that remained, and the fake town was built on them.
