TV: "From" [On MGM+]

[ChuckNorris4Cup]

I was surprised that there wasn't a thread on this one yet, and believe it needs one, as it's becoming one of the next great shows imo.

So far there has been 3 seasons of this show, with 10 episodes in each. The show is a Horror/Mystery/Sci-Fi to best categorize it, it has a 96% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and has a 7.8/10 rating on IMDb.

To best summarize this show, it's a show about a group of people who have found themselves trapped in a town that they have no idea on how or why they are here, and are being trapped here by forces unknown.

The other interesting fact about this show, is it's from the same producers of the same hit show "Lost" from back in the day, and quite possibly why I'm so invested in this show. Lost was a brilliant show imo, where it just made you want more all the time, and made you ask what is going on, but you wanted to know.

Just finished season 3 episode 10 tonight, and it was a homerun imo, I can't wait until season 4 comes out. Anyways I'll post the video trailers of all 3 seasons, but I strongly recommend this show for people if you haven't seen it yet.

The show isn't bad but i think it has the walking dead problem, even if the show has short seasons it feels like there's a lot of filler segments that can be cut out for a better show.

I don't see that, because with the walking dead people already know what's going on, they're zombies and people are trying to survive, where the show From we don't really know what these things are, or why are they doing this, it's way more complex story wise imo. For filler wise you could say the same for Lost when it was trying every episode in season 1 to inform viewers of every characters background, but it became one of the best shows ever.

This is where the brilliance of these producers stand out more imo, they leave the user using their mind more to try to understand what's really going on. Similar with Lost and why it is one of the best shows ever made, they left the viewer speculating all the time what's actually happening, which keeps you invested to continue watching to want to figure it out. And with this last episode in season 3 imo it's a homerun without really given the people the answer of what's going on, there's so many possibilities of things. It's almost like in Lost when they finally found the Hatch, that episode is what got me hooked on Lost and was a big turning point in the show imo, it left the viewer going what is going on and got the viewer more invested in the show.

The problem with Lost is that they themselves didn't know the answers to the questions the audience was asking and tried to make it up as they went along.

As a result, as it went deeper into further seasons, the plot would careen around without any semblance of foreshadowing or continuity.

Looks decent, but who the hell has MGM+? I'm definitely not ordering it for 1 show.

We are able to watch it through our amazon prime. They have some relationship I guess.
We just scroll across Prime header and mgm+ shows up.

I did update the original post under the trailers, with what services broadcast this show, which was Paramount+, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube.

I've already started rewatching season 1 again, because after what happened in season 3 getting a few answers to things, you start seeing things in season 1 you may of overlooked, and wondering if there's a connection there now. Just brilliant imo from these producers.
