I feel like the number of theories on UA-cam gives most people too high expectations. It seems like they expect that the answers to all their questions/theories will come within a week. And then, when an episode is mostly buildup, people are disappointed. In my opinion, the problem is not at all with the show, but with the expectations of the viewers (or at least the ones complaining).
We did get big clue about it tho....answer even. She was let out, lured out to get Henry, once she did she was taken back...and the bottle tree that is fareaway too changed and is now working as other faraway trees..meaning someone is controlling it, someone with power. And we learned , this place is powerful, there is no way out, even if you get out, it will take you back as soon as you get on the road. They have to do something there to win or to satisfy the entity and hope it will let them go, I just do not see it happening. Entity there is all powerful as it seems, not sure if it is supernatural or all of this is simulation, but who ever is in charge is too powerful for them. That is what we know. And that Tabitha and Miranda have a big connection, possible the theory of Tabitha being Miranda in past life is true.....based on similarities and even her dream, many past lives she end up in From place, why...no idea. And all can be a game/simulation/program ....if they get too complicated, they can use those theories to fix it all. For now we learn this much...not too much tho..
@@HodajuciParadokseven if they were to be forcibly brought back to fromsville, Tabitha was about to see the most important tree of the series and conveniently through a fit and put them back to square one. The only important things so far is with Elgin, Victor and Julie and Jade finding new clues that we probably won’t get to learn about until season 4.
Because if you don’t build all this depth to these characters then their conclusions won’t be satisfying. Think of it like this. If they don’t do all of these things helping us get closer to these “pieces” (characters) then we’re going to get a complete puzzle where we might learn the mysteries of the town but none of the pieces catch our attention. It would be way less satisfying if they didn’t give these characters depth.
@@tommy1344idk ab anyone else but I never cried so hard over a character like Kenny's mom's death I flipped out at my boyfriend and covered my ears and was crying told him to skip it I can't get the part where the monster pulled the chunk of hair out and boyed saying just keep looking at me so freaking heartbreaking I love the writing of the emotions it's the best part makes it feel real like your right there with Donna mourning all the people dying
I believe they lied that they have a plan for the story. Not a single answer was given, only some details to some of the questions. Considering the amount of mysteries and entities in the town, not having a single answer by the 3rd season tells me they are just stretching it out without having a clue. Just pilling more and more mysteries and characters. We have so far with no answers: 1. How and why do people arrive in town? (No one walked in or used a bicycle?) Most of the time, just 1 motorised vehicle. 2. Humanoid monsters who did not speak until people moved into the houses. Who enjoy hunting and sleep in caves with hoarding hobbies + caged monsters in the cave 2. White boy ghost who can be in the real world and in town + the dog 3. Protection rocks that apparently can not be replicated 4. Voices, ghosts who manipulate people during the day 5. Animals and food appearing or rotting from nowhere. Electricity question and random music and static 7. Wheather, which never changed but does now + forest getting closer 8. Teleportation trees + some with bottles and without. Papers in the bottles 10. Symbol of the tree branches 11. Music box monster and disappearing dungeon 12. Monster killing blood and the caged guy 13. Usability of the liquid from the dead monster 14. Usless ghost kids who only scare and repeat the same shit 15. Memories of this town from people who just arrived there 16. Tent grabbing entity 17. Tower with no clues(drawings, monsters) and exit by breaking a window? 18. Fatima eating people and rotten shit 19. Quick recovery from non-lethal attacks 20. Statues and red rocks 21. Who dropped the rope 22. Giant spiders bites Not mentioning abandoned ideas like catching a monster etc.
I hate to agree but I feel it. There are way too many teases and loose plot threads that barely make progress, it's my biggest frustration last season because a lot of things happened but when you actually thought about what we knew about the town and the monsters at the end of season 1, we somehow knew less by the end of season 2, the amount of questions were like 5x more but no answers. This season, some of the characters are actually sharing info, which was handled very awkwardly a few times, I'd guess because it was just kind of forced in after the backlash, and it felt like we were getting some progress, things different characters have seen are being linked together, but everything is drawn out to a point that we still somehow really have no meaningful progress or answers for even a single plot point. We just know that a few of the questions go together somehow, we don't know how but somehow. Like everything and nothing has happened in 7 episodes. It's so weird, I don't get what they're planning because there's too much they could have paid off by now. Like they need to understand, if all we have is a million questions after 3 seasons, it devolves into nonsense, you can't even remember everything, let alone make sense of it. The story is more vague than Elden Ring at this point. The fact you made this long list and I can genuinely think of so many more off the top of my head, the spiders, civil war ghosts, voice on the radio, the kids, Tabitha's reflection looking like a different person, the spiral staircase, etc, it's beyond too much so it feels like there is no plan, I totally agree with you.
@mismismism yeah I kind of put all the visions of soldiers and phone calls into the ghosts and vision point because there are so many. I totally forgot the spiders, and I guess many more.
Without revealing anything, I can tell you that the answers to questions 2, 14, 15, and 18 will be answered in the finale, along with a few others that aren't on the list like the rope, for example. As for all the others....I have no idea. I think some questions will get partial answers too, while others they're holding back on until later seasons. I just want to know who the man in yellow is right now. 🤔
I also hate that most of these episodes happen in the daytime. The creatures are barely present in the show anymore, and the fear that your felt in the first two seasons just isn’t there.
@@IPrayToSappho That's why part of me thinks it might've been a good idea to have had the show start in season 1 when they dont have the talismans yet and boyd finds them in the first season that way we know the feeling of how dangerous the town truly is because we experienced it while now everyone is just safe and comfortable at night so we don't feel that danger anymore because we barley experienced it
let's count together: a town that lock people in, monster coming out at night, talismans, ghosts, power wires connected to nothing, ghost calls, bracelts that shouldnt be there, ghost dog, ghost voices telling people to kill, ghost kids chanting a weird word, misterious kid wearing white, magic trees, misterious pictograms in the wall, old guy chained to a wall, ghost bugs, possessions, magic crops appering out of the blue, totems, ritual stones, ghosts from 1800, magic music box, ghost lady in kimono, ghost pregnancy, misterious new critter in the cabin of the woods, talking puppet...did I forgot something? Oh, yeah, Kristi's wild mullet haircut...that thing got to be the evilest thing of them all
Literally!!! There is something of a game master/entity here that is purposefully tormenting them, I assume radio guy is also the one playing music in the diner (specifically songs to torment the characters) like there are sentient things here purposefully fucking with these people, and instead they're worried about the date tree and Fatima's weird pregnancy (still issues but way smaller)
In this newest episode Jim and Ethan are searching for Fatima in his RV, a voice comes on the radio acting like their dead son Thomas, meaning the voices Jim probably heard on the radio before are just Fromville fucking with him
Bro this shit damn near ruined this season for me because I personally thought this was a major chess move for the show moving forward. It hasn't even been brought up or mentioned
@@SayamtaBajracharyayeah i guess it was a long wait for a big (semi) reveal - it’s just annoying that no characters that heard it (including Jim) mentioned it
I was saying it as soon as Tabitha returned to Franville that felt so rushed her acting could not hold up what they were trying to do just ruined the atmosphere for me and it's been going downhill since
The show creator said it's the end of the beginning, yeah no shi×, the beginning aka season 1 was great. We haven't seen the boy in white in a while and where is that dog? So many other questions not answered. Watching 10 episodes just to get one thing answered in ep 10...
Jade is the only one running around, trying figure sh*t out, while everyone like "oh, we tried *one* time, so lets just give up", and I get why Kevin is like that, but him being "oh, we just stopped asking questions :)" was really frustrating...
He's focused on surviving and not getting sucked in some mind twisting plot while grieving. Make sense for him...but where the heck is the torture sesh with the night grifters that Boyd promised us? Torching that underground would have been a good thing too. (after taking back their stuff from them)
It makes sense why they gave up. It wasn't just trying one time they've been trying to leave and it hasn't worked and with each try people give up more. Imagine pushing a boulder up a hill as hard as you can and it rolls back down and kills 5 people. How many times would you try before you gave up? Would you go until everyone is dead or give up and make the most of what you do have instead of beating a impossible challenge.
hehe agreed with jade is and well victor tries his pathetic best. but the true problem here is none of the key characters are working together. jade is competent but is a bit of a hardass to work with tabatha always gets to progress only by accident but jim sometimes hold her back victor is well victor no one wants to talk to sara and boyd is too high up his high horse. well atleast jade tried to consult with victor and tabatha. yeh i get tht the place likes to ef with their heads but comeon this is too much now. u cant keep pulling the slight of hand for distraction in every seasons cuz its starting to get old. enough distractions and let them focus on the main objective
This show has always been like this since season one. I don't even know why I watch it. There is no story development and It's so frustrating. It makes sense that these are the same creators of Lost
The show is set in a mysterious town that traps all who enter. Residents can't leave and must survive nightly attacks by monsters. The monsters appear human at first but transform into bloodthirsty creatures with sharp teeth. They come out at night and kill anyone not adequately protected. There are many supernatural elements in the town, including talismans, ghosts, mysterious symbols, and unexplained phenomena. The town seems to have connections to different time periods, with some elements from the 1950s-1970s and ghosts from the 1800s. There's a theory that the whole situation might be an elaborate test or experiment to see how far people can be pushed before they break. Hope seems to "feed the forest" and make the town's supernatural forces stronger, rather than fear. In the season 2 finale, a potential escape route was discovered when Tabitha woke up in a hospital outside the town after being pushed from a lighthouse. The monsters appear to want to torture the townspeople as much as kill them, as evidenced by their actions in releasing the town's livestock during a food shortage. Many mysteries remain unsolved, including the true nature of the monsters, the purpose of the town, and how people get trapped there.
After this season I'm done, it's lost my trust. From has a Terrible pacing issue, scenes lingers on too long and then cut off suddenly in hope of building False Tension but instead doing this just pisses off the audience. The season finale is not going to save this show From itself 💀
Whenever the reveal comes, it will divide opinion like never before. I personally think the show will be all downhill from there. They have posed way too many questions, and introduced too many useless characters to make any sense of this mess.
I felt early on that this was the type of show where the writers aimed for a character drama with mystery setting And I think the core mystery is something that could’ve been done in a mini series and they’ve just thrown in additional ”mystery of the week” type stuff to stretch it out over seasons
@@jahivah I think thats the problem with this show. It’s too many useless characters and too much drama. I’ll understand season 1 trying to get everyone on the same page into half way of season 2. But for it to be season 3 and these mfs don’t know how to communicate still, share useful information, and stop putting blame on people without little to no grace knowing the place they in drive people crazy is wild to me.
Is it just me or would others like to see Boyd put Fatima in the box only to have the creatures lead her off to the cave. Then she comes back and convinces Boyd’s son to let her in and she kills him. Surely that would break Boyd.
I want Fatima in the box if she won't leave. I want Acosta in the box period. I don't believe the creatures will kill Boyd - they've overtly turned down 2 chances to do so this season alone.
@@aparsharma5335 old news but this wasn’t a prediction. It was a question of if a scenario would be good or not. Honestly, very few people would post what you posted, decent people would delete it.
E7 was the worst of the series so far and S3 is worse than S2, which was hard to achieve. Some have tried to push the narrative this show is about trauma and "human dimension" to hide the fact this season is a total let down. Most likely the last 2 ep will give some answers (but more questions), will close some of the astronomical amount of storylines opened and developed in a nonsense way, and will end with some impactful cliffhanger, but that won't change the fact this season was a scam.
This show is heading down the toilet if they don't get it together. NOTHING happened in this season. They may as well have not even released this season.
this should have been from's last season, completely losing grip and engagement, one new mistery after another one, not as effective anymore, just annoying, now we have another huge cliffhander for season 4 and that's it
100% I called it too watched episode 9 and thought they are just going to leave it on a cliffhanger again just one thing after another needed to conclude this season
It’s clear the writers/creators are just attempting to prolong the story for as many season as they can get… and with that they are creating more questions than answers and dragging it…. Shows like this need to have a definitive season plan to tell a story and not deviate. Three seasons without answers is too much. We should have answers this season and another season to see if they can escape
I totally agree with you. We get a lot of questions and sub-plots, but barely any answers or resolutions in this series. We get for example, the following questions/subplots with barely any answer: - Nobody talks about a plan to escape anymore - Nobody talks about destoying the cave with the monsters anymore - A journey to the lighthouse - Tabitha's stupid decistions in the real world (sorry, had to put it here) - Catching a creature. What's up with that? - Sara being in the Town. She has killed people - in season 1, everybody wanted to talk with Victor about his past, but he was gone. When he returned, nobody talked with him. Only Tabitha eventually talked with him - Jim's plan to create a radio tower. There was just 1 storm, and now he just does nothing anymore. - Kristi's wild mullet haircut - Etcetera I fear that the show will be canceled before we get answers
Why are there here?? What is this place? what are those monsters? who is the boy in white dress? How can they all get out?? where is that dog?? What is happening to Fatima? What is that symbol? Who are those children? Significance of Angkhooey??? Cicadas?? Tower? tree blocking the road?? Trees getting closer as mentioned by victor? the night of slaughter? The woman bothering Elgin? what about Jasper? Motel Sign? Portals opened by trees? Tabitha's dream??? The World War soldier? the bottles around the trees and the numbers found in those bottles? The creepy puppets outside the wooden cottages? The navy man who gave Boyd the worms???? Red stones? transfer of worms to monsters? The cave system? The talisman??? what abotu sara and the voices she heard and her role in the beginning ?? 27 episodes and not even a single thing has been answered.. yet, they keep adding more twists?? its kinda getting bored and i feel like they are goign to mess it all up like they did with "LOST"..
Every single one of these questions you’re asking is just the result of not watching the show. We quite literally just watched Dale die from an escape attempt, the town isn’t too keen on trying an escape plan after that. The caves have been shown multiple times to be highly elaborate. Not sure what you want them to destroy the caves with, but it seems like a rather big waste of time considering the vastness of the tunnel system. Again, see what I see earlier for the answer to this lighthouse question. Dale tried. He died. Could go on, just try paying attention and a lot of these will be answered. Doesn’t change the fact there are still a lot of questions unanswered, you’re just asking the wrong ones
This show would be great if they just had a small cast. The fact that they try to add more cast and more mysteries is whats killing it. Acosta now takes the role of Dale and Randall. Bakita will take Kennys mother role and take over the diner. When you see to many people having difficulties understanding the show or having different theories just proves the show has lacked in delivering one thing.. a story line
Yeah there's almost too much for their own good! I really like the show but the stories just piling on top of one another me is just getting a bit too much to keep track of
They’ve barely gone up in cast whatsoever, people literally had a theory about replacement last season specifically because for how many people are killed close to an equivalent is introduced.
That was my issue with season 2 and the people on the bus 😩 I WAS GUTTED like omg this is the laaaast thing we need. A million more characters to eat food thats scarce and use up resources.
I concur, from the interviews i've read the showrunners had the beginning and the end laid out...and the middle was pieced together along the way. it feels like we are in the middle, filling episodes with 'filler' to get to the handful of moments that really matter
I stopped watching a couple episodes into Season 2 cos I felt this was where the show was gonna go.. seems I was right - do they keep teasing a mystery that’s never answered?
The general problem of the show is that it's too slow. There are too many useless dialogues and scenes. Fortunately, episodes 8 and 9 are finally giving us the beginning of some answers. I think they should just reduce the next season to 5 or 6 episodes, which will enhance the rhythm and allow the producers to focus on what's essential.
Problems: Too much soapie drama - not enough action Too many questions upon questions and not enough (no!) answers It’s “Lost” all over again and I am afraid that this is all going to be a joke on the audience 😩
I keep a 10TB hard drive of my favorites shows/movies. If this season doesn't finish in a satisfying way, I have to delete the first 3 seasons and give up. It feels like nothing has happened since the start of season 1. . Every episode sets up the next, but then the next just drags into some new un-interesting plot point. I don't get why they won't just write anything satisfying..
You absolutely nailed it with this video. I'm looks like episode 8 will be exactly the same amount of nothing as well. Seasons being 90% nothing, 10% cliffhanger is just not good enough. They've really let us down this season. I don't have enough investment in any of the characters for me to suffer through bad pacing.
Yeah let's enjoy 2 seasons of mystery and answers where nobody cares about all the characters because there is no time to develop them since in just 20 episode u need to think only about solving mysteries, amazing take dude! U should be a writer
@@SimonTargaryen there's ZERO character development. if there were then all those pointless filler episodes would've been character dedicated episodes.
@@sanantonio855 how there's zero character development they literally focused sooo much on Randall, Julie, the relationship between Victor and his dad and also the new police officer
@@SimonTargaryen no they did a shitty scene where they drive. victor and his dad barely get any talks, and the new police officer is yet another shitty character in a show that has about two dozen too many. in lost you'd get whole episodes focused on one character not a bunch of filler jumping from one scene to the other
@@sanantonio855 Kiddo in Lost you have TWENTYFOUR EPISODES EACH SEASON to develop EVERY character, of course they can't to the same development lmao what are we even talking about????? What they did here it's more than enough for this series with these characters, they gave space to characters in these episodes and in the ending episodes of the seasons they'll give us answers and showing us new things. Nothing bad about it.
A handful of questions were definitely answered in season 3. They said during a comic con interview prior to this season coming out that the show is "a character drama masquerading as a horror" with the mysteries serving to further the character development. Lets be honest, knowing the show was produced by the same people that made LOST, we all knew what we were getting into. Enjoy the ride for better or worse. We wouldnt be coming back each week if it wasn't keeping us intrigued.
I've come across the leaks for S3's homestretch. They're out there for sure but deliver some majors reveals that satisfyingly pay off the set up that's been worked into the narrative; it also feels as though some definitive answers have been/will be provided a tad too soon so I'm reserving my overall judgment on how exactly they'll shake up the status quo.
Since the beginning, even though I was very interested in the show, I feared it would end up similar to The Blacklist, where the writers seem to have wanted to eventually explain everything, but since there was *so much* to explain, and since it was so complex it would’ve taken an entire season (or at least a few episodes to explain), so maybe the network was against that and made them go in a different direction, abandoning the story because it was either too much to explain, or maybe they thought the majority of the audience wouldn’t be interested. (Fans were divided - many fans had decided to believe in a different story that did not account for the thousands of clues the writers intricately weaved into the story). For the first 2 seasons of From, I tried so hard to not believe that, the producers said it would not end up like Lost - but the more I analyzed the story, the more I thought that they are going to run into issues, *likely with the network,* because networks are not interested in complex stories, but stories that appeal to the majority of viewers who aren’t interested in shows that they have to think a lot about to figure out, but instead just sort of blindly watch like background entertainment. I just now looked up to find out what happened with the show concerning networks, and found out that From went from UA-cam Red, to Epix, then for the 3rd season went to MGM+, and that matches what I said previously. But, I’m biased against MGM, because of the Stargate franchise, so….??? But I DO know one thing for sure: The network has a lot of say with the writing & story. I’d love to know the truth about what the writers originally planned for this show - I bet it’s very different from what it is now.
The show is bringing up more questions and that’s a serious issue… by the third season I expect some answers. This is feeling like lost all over again.
The biggest problem is the carrot dangling. I never get the carrot. I realized how the show just sucks as the engaging part is trying to figure it out. Once the reveal is there its over. I stopped caring. Im out.
The threat of the monsters outside at night has greatly diminished since season 1. I thought the whole chasing the animals through the streets thing was ridiculous, if people were faced with watching their food run away, or facing down supernatural monsters that will mutilitate them with smiles on their faces, they will watch the food run away.
I forgot about the dog too...like the dog led to the talismans, the dog led B+ others away from the creatures and when's the last time we saw it? We've been w/ Tabitha since season 1, why are we just now learning she had these nightmares as a kid?
Cos they only find the red stones in season 3 lol. Tabitha had no idea she was seeing Fromville. She just thought it was a scary, recurring nightmare. Chances are, other characters may also find that they saw the town before they got there (Abby and maybe even Jade since he keeps seeing these visions that seem more like memories@@maloneaqua
Its like they just forgot how scary the inital premise was. "You cant escape the town, you cant go out at night. The talismans and escaping the overall threat are probably related" That is MORE THAN ENOUGH for a good mystery horror show. Instead, they just keep digging and digging the hole deeper until you just dont care. Anyone can see or decide to do anything because of the powerful magic, and anything can happen to them. How can you have tension in a show like that without inserting unbelievable stupid relationship drama? You can't. Next time the monsters show up, they may randomly decide to do nothing like they have the last few times. Now, when I see them, instead of being terrified, im just curious what kind of mood they are in. Anyone can hallucinate and therefore do stupid things. Anyone can teleport. That teleportation can take you anywhere randomly. Anyone can survive an encounter with monsters. Anyone can have any effect when they come into contact with biological agents such as demon blood or rotting fruit. Anyone can suddenly remember things that happened to other characters. There is no structure or sense of lore. There are no rules. You cant keep tension in a story with no rules. In Lost, people assumed that the rules were just obscure. Then we realised they didnt make sense and it was all a waste of time. The writers are literally doing the same thing now. This show had a distinct advantage over the walking dead. The monsters in From are invincible, and there is clearly a goal other than survive: Escape. The Walking Dead lost all that because they didnt have any reason for the characters to leave or do anything different besides "some other group comes along and they are bad". This show does the opposite. It has room to grow and motivate the characters only there are now A HUNDRED of them instead of 5.
The main problem is the writing. They are telling and not showing. It's just bad. 99% of the dialogue it's reiterating what already happened. If the last ep of the current season doesn't answer at least one fucking question I'm done. Wasted potential.
What happened to Boyd's plot to capture a creep? Writers seem to have forgotten and moved on. The writers of this show has no idea how to answer any of the questions they've raised, they'll just keep creating further red herrings, rabbit holes, and goose chases and then breathe a sigh of relief when the show is inevitably cancelled. Just like Wayward Pines, 1899, Night Sky, Y the Last Man, and whatever else we watched over the last several years. The writers have no clue how to wrap this up so they'll just keep making it weirder and weirder until the show is dropped. Been there, done that.
1 episode left of this season, pretty much nothing of value has happened so far, we’ve learned next to nothing about the monsters, or any way to escape, but hey at least we get about 50% of each episodes screen time centred around fatima and ellis, because that’s SO entertaining
A great summation! I can't believe I've given this show so much of my time, and for so little return. It feels like endless teases - especially (surprise surprise!) at the ends of episodes, thus guaranteeing that I'll be back for the next one, only to find little or no resolution. It's just more and more "stuff" happening, and every time another baffling event pops out of nowhere, I just shrug and think "Yeah, why not?" It's fine to have lots of intriguing things happening, but we need _some_ resolution, instead of just more "WTF?" moments. We need confidence that this is going somewhere, that the writers know what's going on and are taking us on a journey with a worthwhile destination, instead of constantly pointing out of the train window and saying "Whooo! Look at that scenery!" I suspect that this season will end with yet another "incredible" event, just to get us hooked for season four, but the ratings suggest that viewers have had enough of being strung along, and want answers. Any answers. The forums and the interwebs should be full of people speculating on what's actually going on, drawing on evidence from the show to build coherent theories - but I'm struggling to find anything other than head-scratching and frustration. And in these days of series cancellations at the drop of a hat, that's not good policy.
I think that you centered the main issue of the show. I am a bit divided, because from one end I really would like to see the reveal of the mystery, but I am quite tired of waiting all this time to finally have a glimpse of what all this fuss is about. I understand thast the nature of this show is slow paced and it is very character driven, but at some point you need to progress and even hard dying fans at some point they demand some tangible resolutions. I hope that the last two episodes that are titled Revelations, will finally shed some light on what is happenning. We are 27 episodes in and I feel that very little progression has been made.
That's the thing it's not like we want all the answers right now we just want some kind of decent pacing and maybe one answer they're adding so many Mysteries that there's no way they're going to even answer half of them when it's early season 3 30 episodes with practically zero answers
Seriously this is so slow... Everyone in the show just keeps on talking how they feel instead of asking the real questions. Even from the 2nd season no answers were given...who was the guy in the cave...who he was referring to How he know Boyd's wife who tied him with those chains...Now where is the white boy who lead Tabitha...who are those children...what is that mark... who created these monsters...how it's related to the lighthouse..... I mean you are right enough of fatma it should've taken barely 4 ep for the truth to be revealed and now we are at the 8th ep no nothing is there. It's like they are just creating stories without any conclusion at the first place.
If we're being totally honest, the show runners know they got a good series and they are willing to risk it and drag this series on for as long as possible, all for the $$$. season 3 in its entirety has become, what is Fatima's pregnancy.
Am i the only one who think Season 3 is the best Season so far? So many people complain the same about answers, while i enjoying theory and i think the writer will wrap up everything in the next season. For Me Season 3 is the best, so intense.
producers of Lost making the same mistakes all over again, bringing up more and more questions for the sake of cliffhangers, stretching out the plot too thin until nobody cares anymore. i am out to be honest
1. What is the Town? The town traps people who enter, preventing them from leaving. It seems to have supernatural qualities and is connected to an unknown force or entity. 2. What are the Monsters? The monsters appear human but transform into horrific creatures at night. They seem to be driven by a desire to kill and may have a connection to the town's supernatural elements. 3. What are the Talismans? Talismans are used by residents as a means of protection against the monsters. Their effectiveness and origin remain unclear. 4. What is the Significance of Ghosts? Ghosts from different time periods appear throughout the town, suggesting that there may be a deeper connection between the town's past and present. They often influence or interact with living characters. 5. What About the Strange Phenomena? Elements like power wires connected to nothing, ghost calls, and mysterious critters contribute to an atmosphere of confusion and dread, indicating that reality in the town is warped. 6. What Do the Ghosts Want? Some ghosts seem to manipulate or guide living characters, while others appear hostile. The motivations of these spirits are often ambiguous, adding to the show's tension. 7. What is the Role of Rituals and Symbols? Rituals, stones, and pictograms hint at an ancient or ongoing conflict within the town, possibly tied to its supernatural nature. 8. Why Are People Trapped? The reason for their entrapment is not fully explained but suggests themes of punishment, testing, or a cycle that repeats itself. 9. Is There Hope for Escape? Characters like Tabitha have hinted at possible escape routes, but success remains uncertain as they face numerous obstacles. 10. What Happens Next? The show intentionally leaves many questions unanswered, creating suspense and encouraging speculation about future developments.
@@FunnyProducer see how you can provide a lot of detail without revealing any information? that's the show. they give us the "what" and the "how", never a single "why"
The show is not finished yet. All these people in the comments have no idea on how to make a coherent story. There is a lot of threads and there is still two more seasons planned. It has not bit of more than it can chew. If you can’t see the ending clearly now, then you have not been paying attention.
I just want some freaking answers. What's with the bugs in Boyd's arm? Why did it kill the creature? Is it still there in his body? What's with Tabitha and her visions? What's with her daughter, Julie, and the other 2? What's their connection to the visions they collectively had in season 2? Who's the old guy locked in the tower? He didn't recognize Boyd but he recognized Julie, why? Why does only Randall see and hear the bugs? Why do Julie and Randall only seem to be experiencing visions of delusions and not also Marielle? Why does Victor say he wants to fix things and can help and he knows how to do X, only to back out immediately when he feels discomfort, leaving the audience frustrated and confused (peak edging imo)?What the actual F! does annchooey mean?! How about: ehat arethe damn talismans and/or where did they come from? Like can we get an answer to something?!?!
I have the answer. They are in a magic town and literally anything can happen to anyone at any time. You wont guess how it all works because the writers dont know either. Those supernatural rules thay established the first season? Forget them. Who cares?! We have dreams and people screaming and seeing dead people that no one else can and also people attacking their friends because of their hallucinations to get through. You wanted more of that right? Good, because it's easy to write. It doesnt have to make sense and the writers dont have to progress the story. Thats the easiest form of qriting to do.
Episodes 9 and 10 should answer a lot… I hope. Otherwise I really don’t see how we can give this show any more attention. I love this show but we can only put up with so much for so long. I’m getting West World vibes…
On one hand I agree with most fans, on the other I hate when shows over cater to fans. I love that From is character driven, and generally am ok with slower instead of instant gratification. But, the show needs to start disclosing more about what happens and they can without compromising the quality of the storytelling
@@KittyChibiWaifu Then, just don't continue the show. Reveal something now, and leave the big answers for grand finale. It's simple as that. That's all they have to do.
@@KittyChibiWaifu If you are a bad writer no amount of fans can save the show. This is why GoT first 6 seasons were epic then came the season 7 and 8 which the audience hated because of how it was rushed and didn't make sense. What I'm saying is you have to have a balance between pace and storytelling instead of just adding mysteries after mysteries with no conclusions.
List of questions: Whats with the doll? Who made the talismans and why do they work? Why did Boyd hallucinate worms? Why isnt that happening anymore? How did he kill a monster? What do any of the 15 characters having their own hallucinations actually mean for the story? What's with the spider webs? What was that thing with the 3 prisoners? Why have the monsters suddenly stopped caring about killing people half the time? Why does eating rotten vegetables reincarnate the monsters? Why did tabitha go up the lighthouse and just see a big spotlight instead of the children? That weird dungeon that Boyd was in, what makes you able to enter that place other than the writers deciding to do a scene there? Why was the bald dude spared by the monsters? Why was there food at that remote village? Why was that gallbladder scene even included? Why do they abandon half of their most sensible plans to learn more and instead just run off into the forest thinking that their hallucinations are automatically going to help them? When being crazy and seeing things is so common and sometimes insightful, why do people constantly hide their hallucinations until the writer wants to progress the conspiracy? Why is everyone so understanding about sarah having killed people when they get suspicious and angry with eachother over the tiniest of infractions? I know victor is conveniently insane so that he only contributes helpful information when the writers wish to but why dont people try to consult someone with so much expertise and establish a timeline of facts from the beginning of the story? What what so bad about tabitha digging that hole when there is another entrance into the same cavern just sitting in the middle of the forest? Why does boyd expect new families to nail their windows shut instead of doing it to a house before he moves a family into there? (This really peeved me) The most recent ambulance wasnt driving on some interstate trip but to a hospital that they have been to a hundred times, so how did they not notice the moment that they were on an unfamiliar forrest road long before they ran into the tree? What happened to the drone? How many spare talismans do they have? Are the monsters fireproof along with bullet proof? Is there any point even trying to understand the biological rules associated with these 6000 different forms of spooky magic? And my final question: In a story where magic exists and literally anything can happen at any time and we also cant trust anything that any of the characters see, WHY SHOULD I CARE? There is no tension when a monster or force of evil is omni powerful and randomly decides to let the characters do something they couldnt do before or spare someone they normally wouldnt have spared. I just dont give a shit. They could make someone fly or turn into a giant bee and sing lady gaga and it would be just as strange as the rest of the stuff that happens. The show has lost all of its pace and structure.
They should have kept Tabitha in Maine for longer. The contrast between Fromville and the real world and being stuck in-between was interesting and I was looking forward for her to find answers for us.
The worst thing you can do Artistically is come up with a great concept, not flesh it out but put it out there in the world anyway and just pretend your way through. Its the worst kind of art. Someone had a cool thought and nothing else after that (what if people wind up in a town they cant get out of). And they put out a whole show out about it. Its a waste of time
I think you've nailed it. At this pace you need more episodes per season. The result of what we have currently is going to be a cancelled show that just left people hanging.
I recommend to skip watching this series. It only drags you to watch more and more, but you will know nothing in 3 seasons. They find real clues, but these clues get abandoned soon in order to make more and more seasons for you to watch.
I feel like the number of theories on UA-cam gives most people too high expectations. It seems like they expect that the answers to all their questions/theories will come within a week. And then, when an episode is mostly buildup, people are disappointed. In my opinion, the problem is not at all with the show, but with the expectations of the viewers (or at least the ones complaining).
@spellegren The Brundles were a place where people went to go for fun. To relax, have a swim and forget about everything. The fact that nobody goes here now anymore shows perfectly how the whole atmosphere in Colony House has changed. Maybe the location will be featured in another episode at some point, but I don't see any problems here?
True we should probably stop with our extravagant theories cause we are just setting ourselves up for disappointment. If the show gave us more clues it would be different now we fill in blanks & even create more blanks the writers did not even think about.
It wasn't just how bad episode 7 was. It was just an episode where you come to finally realize just how shallow the show actually is. The only thing good about the show is the premise. Thats all that is keeping you watching. Everything else is horrible
This show has a fascinating concept and creates a unique dynamic that keeps us guessing. Every time we get one answer, it's immediately followed by ten more questions. It's like a riddle trapped in a puzzle, wrapped in a maze! One of the major mysteries is about the motel-where is it, and what happened to it? Henry pointed out, "How come we see a sign, but there's no motel?" I also think the numbers in the bottles might represent hotel room numbers. At some point, I predict the motel will become a central element in this story. While I understand the comparisons to Lost, there are significant differences. What made Lost so iconic was its strong, alpha male leaders. However, in this show, all the men seem to be portrayed as beta males who struggle with making logical leadership decisions. They often rely on mentally stronger female counterparts. For example, Boyd follows Donna, Jim defers to Tabitha, Kristi leads Kenny, and Ellis looks up to Fatima. Conversely, the men who display alpha-like qualities, such as Jade and Randall, are depicted as jerks or bullies. Throughout human history, when people face extreme situations and adversity, we tend to revert to our natural roles: men often become warriors and protectors, while women take on the roles of healers and nurturers. But here, the men seem passive, almost waiting for those around them to be killed. A prime example is Frank, who drinks himself unconscious instead of protecting his family, allowing the monster to slaughter them. No real man would do that when he has a scared little girl at home. It’s an intriguing writing choice-every male character is led by a stronger female. Even Julie shows better leadership skills than her own father, Jim. I don't think this is a mere oversight; it seems intentional, creating more intrigue and conflict in the storyline. The lack of communication among the characters adds to the show's chaos. No one is trying to come up with a plan of attack; they’re all just surviving as best they can. In reality, when humans face threats, we don’t just sit around waiting-we build walls, moats, and traps. Human creativity, especially in the art of survival and war, is unmatched. Yet, all of this seems absent in the show’s portrayal of their survival efforts. Despite these observations, I think it's a great show, and I’m excited to see how it all unfolds in the end!
It's story buildin, season 1 was an intro to the game, the town and the rules. Season 2 was character building, creating familiarity to relate to and finding the puzle pieces. Season 3 has been about finding a table to put the puzzle together at, all 11 episodes they've been looking for a table
I can understand why the viewing has gone down. This show is slowly turning into LOST. Everyone's acting like Victor. Can't finish their sentence, Can't face remembering anything.
I feel like for 10+ episodes now, I keep thinking "This next episode will be INSANE and finally give us something" and every single episode ends with no progression. I just don't understand how they decided to quickly swap between so many plotlines instead of sticking with a few and giving some satisfying answers in the meantime.
I think people are tuning out because people know they are being strung along by filler. As you said, Miranda had a dream as a child which we saw the episode before and now she at the same spot and it's all being explained to us with her husband being the skeptic which makes no sense in the place they are in to be that way. "Honey how could you have dreamed of a place you had never been before" also I talked to our dead son on the phone two night ago on a phone that wasn't even plugged into anything. Also I thought the whole Miranda made it out into the real world would have had some sort of pay off other than bringing back Victors dad. I mean, that was kind of waste of time. She called her mom, farted around and ended up back in Fromville.
Spoiler alert ‼️ For those interested in a summary of the upcoming last episodes 9 & 10, I’ll paste it in this comment… your welcome 🙃 ++9-10 SPOILERS+ + Boyd and some colony house ppl figure out Elgin has Fatima hidden and they kidnap and torture him to tell them where she is but he doesnt say. He keeps saying "it" told him it was the only way to save the town. Boyd realizes Sara said similar things when she was killing folx in ssni so he goes to her. She says he'll never tell them be she remembers how she felt. While boyd and the others are areguing they hear elgin screaming and go upstairs and sara has blinded him/removed an eye (hard to tell) and says Fatima is at the root cellar. Jade, Tabitha, Victor, and Jim realize the bottle tree numbers only go as high as 12 and they might be musical notes, Jade says he will stand in the woods and play the notes on his violin and see what happens. I saw someone on this sub guess it might be about music so good for them be they were right. And now the big ending things: Boyd goes to where Fatima is. She has found a hatch in the floor of the room she is being kept in but cant open it. She gives birth to a baby-sized fleshy pod. The kimono woman appears and takes the pod down the hatch. Boyd quickly comes in and follows kimono. She goes to a chamber where all the monsters are standing in a circle and puts the pod in the middle. It grows very fast and turns into a standing man, who turns around and it is the smiling man monster reborn. In the woods, Jade plays the song and one of the angkhooey children shows up. She sais angkhooey one more time and it looks like it snaps something in both Jade and Tabitha. Tabitha runs off and jade says "oh god." Jade then says angkhooey means "remember" but doesnt explain why. Jim goes to talk to tabitha who remembers she's been here before and was victor's mother, and jade was christopher, explaining why they see things related to both. Tabitha also remembers that she and jade were 2 original people in fromville, and one of the grey children was theirs in a life long, long ago. Apparently most of the town sacrificed the children because "it" said they could live forever if they did. I'm just speculating but that seems to be connected to the monsters who are maybe also original citizens who made the deal. Jade and Tabitha didn't and "tried to save them." Tabitha tells Jim she needs time now that she remembers. RIGHT at the end, while jim is processing, a short haired julie runs up to him, probably from the future. She says he has to run and "this is when it happens" and then someone says "hello jim" and a bald man in a yellow suit appears. julie tells him to run. The man says "you shouldnt have let your wife dig that hole" and rips out jim's throat while julie screams. It should be noticed this final scene takes place in daylight so the rules for the man in yellow are different than the monsters.
Boyd:"I'm trying to keep you all alive!" Victor: "I don't wanna talk about it, I have to go now" Fatima: "there's something inside me" Must be the 3 most used sentences In a single season in tv history.
I stopped after watching season 1 because of the same exact problem. They are wasting time on unnecessary human drama and rarely tackles the mystery of the place.
This show is not going in the direction I thought it was, based on major clues they gave us from the beginning (like Jade’s soliloquy in S01E05 about Klein, Hardis, Einstein, Podolsky, & Rosen, then Trudy ‘reads his mind’, & asks a question that relates to his internal thoughts that she didn’t hear what he said to himself, but what she said to him was as if she knew, and she made other comments that relates to her being like a planeswalker who has that ability) - which is purposeful by the writers, it’s a literary device that’s genre specific, used in supernatural & science fiction types of shows - so this makes me wonder what the H is going on.
Impatient viewers are why TV will always be subpar garbage. Walking Dead was how many seasons of no answers but mediocre plotting but gave you action. From is actual interesting build up that idiots are gonna ruin.
From who's perspective is this show supposed to be? The people? I also know that these people know nothing about this place, they are as clueless as anyone, they spend everyday looking for answers, its dangerous to go looking for answers out in the night. So what exactly are we expecting the answers to come from? How are the townspeople supposed to go looking out for answers? What exactly is it they are supposed to do? Catch one of the monsters? cause we all know the monsters are going to answer all these questions right? definitely not screech. Maybe they should try going out at night and look for the answers because that's when shii goes down and that's a good idea, they could use the bile from smiley(oh wait that didn't work). I'm glad this show is getting more audience but now all these people don't know how to enjoy the creativity and art. They want a quick fix scare, saying season three should wrap things up, so what exactly is season 4 and 5 going to contain? Someone please help me through the last part.
This show is a prime example that releasing a full season of a show can be better than 1 episode at a time. I have faith In The last few episodes of the season but if it came out all at once the whole season would’ve been seen as amazing.
waiting a week between episodes just to see fatima having a fucking meltdown for 3 weeks straight is horrible when it’s the only content you have for that week, people find it fun to theorise about the mysteries but there’s not really much going on right now worth talking about
I hate the fact that they stopped trying to build the Radio Tower after they know something communicated with them to stop and since the storm to destroy it
The entire series has huge problems. The writing is slow rolling every single thing, while introducing more questions that will never, ever be answered. It's been this way since the first season and I have no idea how the show got renewed afterwards. Whatever happened to "The Brundles" in season two? Never heard about them again.
Man, what happened to From? Season 3 feels like it’s totally lost track of what made the show interesting. Now, it's mostly focused on personal drama that doesn’t go anywhere, and the main mystery feels like a distant memory. It’s like the writers are more invested in dragging out pointless subplots than giving us any real progression. At this rate, even if the monsters took over, at least we’d get a change in pace! It’s such a shame to watch a show that started strong get bogged down by all these distractions.
Season 3 of From is definitely proving to be the shows most controversial instalment. Be sure to share what you think of Season 3 in the comments!
Lol😂

Thank you for the video, I really liked it and I gave it a like. Thanks bro!
I feel you. Are we getting answers though?
@80ighty you will get a lot but you might not like them. I've seen the spoilers.
at this point the viewers themselves need to call Jasper for answers.
Loool!
jasper doesnt speak
😂
This literally brought tears to my eyes 😂😂 because fr though. Can’t put my hope into Jade he been struggling with those symbols since season 1. 💀
Loll 😂
I'm still upset that they totally abandoned catching a creature. They haven't even brought back the idea, like why was it even mentioned???
The writers must have forgot or something
That's so true what ever happened to that
donna shot it down and boyd gave in to her
Donna advised against it. But I feel they should have tried different things like shooting a flame at them. See if they can withstand fire
it might be the topic of the season finale
Season 2 ended with a really big cliffhanger: Tabitha in the real world.
And after 3 episodes, she is back in the From-world. Nothing really changed.
We did get big clue about it tho....answer even. She was let out, lured out to get Henry, once she did she was taken back...and the bottle tree that is fareaway too changed and is now working as other faraway trees..meaning someone is controlling it, someone with power. And we learned , this place is powerful, there is no way out, even if you get out, it will take you back as soon as you get on the road. They have to do something there to win or to satisfy the entity and hope it will let them go, I just do not see it happening. Entity there is all powerful as it seems, not sure if it is supernatural or all of this is simulation, but who ever is in charge is too powerful for them. That is what we know. And that Tabitha and Miranda have a big connection, possible the theory of Tabitha being Miranda in past life is true.....based on similarities and even her dream, many past lives she end up in From place, why...no idea. And all can be a game/simulation/program ....if they get too complicated, they can use those theories to fix it all.
For now we learn this much...not too much tho..
she was never in the real world i think
@@HodajuciParadokseven if they were to be forcibly brought back to fromsville, Tabitha was about to see the most important tree of the series and conveniently through a fit and put them back to square one. The only important things so far is with Elgin, Victor and Julie and Jade finding new clues that we probably won’t get to learn about until season 4.
Yeah that bothered me too!
Yep…
Episode 7 was so frustrating to watch. Literally nothing happen. It was just drama between ellis and the pregnant girl!!!
Yep they are like the woke couple that people actually dislike lol
@@matt8741 Choosing to keep a baby in a post-apocalyptic situation is probably the least woke shit ever.
@@matt8741woke people rent free or sum?
@@matt8741 y all using the word woke not even knowing the meaning
@@IPrayToSappho He means "mixed race."
The writers are more interested in showing us how the people deal with this place, rather than explaining the mysteries of the town.
True
The writers gave us a bullshit sandwich this season.
Because if you don’t build all this depth to these characters then their conclusions won’t be satisfying. Think of it like this. If they don’t do all of these things helping us get closer to these “pieces” (characters) then we’re going to get a complete puzzle where we might learn the mysteries of the town but none of the pieces catch our attention. It would be way less satisfying if they didn’t give these characters depth.
@@tommy1344idk ab anyone else but I never cried so hard over a character like Kenny's mom's death I flipped out at my boyfriend and covered my ears and was crying told him to skip it I can't get the part where the monster pulled the chunk of hair out and boyed saying just keep looking at me so freaking heartbreaking I love the writing of the emotions it's the best part makes it feel real like your right there with Donna mourning all the people dying
They explained heaps in the last episode. There's a lot less questions now about the universe. All the other episodes were build up.
I believe they lied that they have a plan for the story. Not a single answer was given, only some details to some of the questions. Considering the amount of mysteries and entities in the town, not having a single answer by the 3rd season tells me they are just stretching it out without having a clue. Just pilling more and more mysteries and characters.
We have so far with no answers:
1. How and why do people arrive in town? (No one walked in or used a bicycle?) Most of the time, just 1 motorised vehicle.
2. Humanoid monsters who did not speak until people moved into the houses. Who enjoy hunting and sleep in caves with hoarding hobbies + caged monsters in the cave
2. White boy ghost who can be in the real world and in town + the dog
3. Protection rocks that apparently can not be replicated
4. Voices, ghosts who manipulate people during the day
5. Animals and food appearing or rotting from nowhere. Electricity question and random music and static
7. Wheather, which never changed but does now + forest getting closer
8. Teleportation trees + some with bottles and without. Papers in the bottles
10. Symbol of the tree branches
11. Music box monster and disappearing dungeon
12. Monster killing blood and the caged guy
13. Usability of the liquid from the dead monster
14. Usless ghost kids who only scare and repeat the same shit
15. Memories of this town from people who just arrived there
16. Tent grabbing entity
17. Tower with no clues(drawings, monsters) and exit by breaking a window?
18. Fatima eating people and rotten shit
19. Quick recovery from non-lethal attacks
20. Statues and red rocks
21. Who dropped the rope
22. Giant spiders bites
Not mentioning abandoned ideas like catching a monster etc.
I hate to agree but I feel it. There are way too many teases and loose plot threads that barely make progress, it's my biggest frustration last season because a lot of things happened but when you actually thought about what we knew about the town and the monsters at the end of season 1, we somehow knew less by the end of season 2, the amount of questions were like 5x more but no answers.
This season, some of the characters are actually sharing info, which was handled very awkwardly a few times, I'd guess because it was just kind of forced in after the backlash, and it felt like we were getting some progress, things different characters have seen are being linked together, but everything is drawn out to a point that we still somehow really have no meaningful progress or answers for even a single plot point. We just know that a few of the questions go together somehow, we don't know how but somehow.
Like everything and nothing has happened in 7 episodes. It's so weird, I don't get what they're planning because there's too much they could have paid off by now. Like they need to understand, if all we have is a million questions after 3 seasons, it devolves into nonsense, you can't even remember everything, let alone make sense of it. The story is more vague than Elden Ring at this point.
The fact you made this long list and I can genuinely think of so many more off the top of my head, the spiders, civil war ghosts, voice on the radio, the kids, Tabitha's reflection looking like a different person, the spiral staircase, etc, it's beyond too much so it feels like there is no plan, I totally agree with you.
Giant spiders!
@mismismism yeah I kind of put all the visions of soldiers and phone calls into the ghosts and vision point because there are so many. I totally forgot the spiders, and I guess many more.
Also why is the show called from. Writers say there is a specific reason for the title.
Without revealing anything, I can tell you that the answers to questions 2, 14, 15, and 18 will be answered in the finale, along with a few others that aren't on the list like the rope, for example. As for all the others....I have no idea. I think some questions will get partial answers too, while others they're holding back on until later seasons. I just want to know who the man in yellow is right now. 🤔
I also hate that most of these episodes happen in the daytime. The creatures are barely present in the show anymore, and the fear that your felt in the first two seasons just isn’t there.
I do miss seeing the creatures!
Walking dead did the same thing early on, a whole season of nothing in the day with useless characters
I feel like they made it too easy to be protected, you stay in the house with your talisman nothing can happen, it's too safe
@@IPrayToSappho That's why part of me thinks it might've been a good idea to have had the show start in season 1 when they dont have the talismans yet and boyd finds them in the first season that way we know the feeling of how dangerous the town truly is because we experienced it while now everyone is just safe and comfortable at night so we don't feel that danger anymore because we barley experienced it
Which I feel like Fatima Will change that because of what you just said
let's count together: a town that lock people in, monster coming out at night, talismans, ghosts, power wires connected to nothing, ghost calls, bracelts that shouldnt be there, ghost dog, ghost voices telling people to kill, ghost kids chanting a weird word, misterious kid wearing white, magic trees, misterious pictograms in the wall, old guy chained to a wall, ghost bugs, possessions, magic crops appering out of the blue, totems, ritual stones, ghosts from 1800, magic music box, ghost lady in kimono, ghost pregnancy, misterious new critter in the cabin of the woods, talking puppet...did I forgot something?
Oh, yeah, Kristi's wild mullet haircut...that thing got to be the evilest thing of them all
Kirsti wild mullet haircut is the most disturbing thing in the whole show lol
That mullet joke got me dying laughing
The wild mullet part cracked me up😂😂😂😂
that haircut, 😂😂😂
You forgot the dancing ballerina.
I feel like everyone just forgot that someone spoke to Jim on the radio
No one ever brought that up again
Literally!!! There is something of a game master/entity here that is purposefully tormenting them, I assume radio guy is also the one playing music in the diner (specifically songs to torment the characters) like there are sentient things here purposefully fucking with these people, and instead they're worried about the date tree and Fatima's weird pregnancy (still issues but way smaller)
In this newest episode Jim and Ethan are searching for Fatima in his RV, a voice comes on the radio acting like their dead son Thomas, meaning the voices Jim probably heard on the radio before are just Fromville fucking with him
Bro this shit damn near ruined this season for me because I personally thought this was a major chess move for the show moving forward. It hasn't even been brought up or mentioned
Umm, ep 10 last scene answers this ig
@@SayamtaBajracharyayeah i guess it was a long wait for a big (semi) reveal - it’s just annoying that no characters that heard it (including Jim) mentioned it
I’m glad someone is saying it.
I was saying it as soon as Tabitha returned to Franville that felt so rushed her acting could not hold up what they were trying to do just ruined the atmosphere for me and it's been going downhill since
@@VSMOKE1I rather they give us victors sister than his dad. He hasn’t added a thing
The show creator said it's the end of the beginning, yeah no shi×, the beginning aka season 1 was great. We haven't seen the boy in white in a while and where is that dog? So many other questions not answered. Watching 10 episodes just to get one thing answered in ep 10...
@VSMOKE1 that's very true I'm not sold on Tabitha as an actress.
Jade is the only one running around, trying figure sh*t out, while everyone like "oh, we tried *one* time, so lets just give up", and I get why Kevin is like that, but him being "oh, we just stopped asking questions :)" was really frustrating...
He's focused on surviving and not getting sucked in some mind twisting plot while grieving. Make sense for him...but where the heck is the torture sesh with the night grifters that Boyd promised us? Torching that underground would have been a good thing too. (after taking back their stuff from them)
I love Jade.
@@keith6293Great point. I would too love seeing they torch or storm the caves
It makes sense why they gave up. It wasn't just trying one time they've been trying to leave and it hasn't worked and with each try people give up more. Imagine pushing a boulder up a hill as hard as you can and it rolls back down and kills 5 people. How many times would you try before you gave up? Would you go until everyone is dead or give up and make the most of what you do have instead of beating a impossible challenge.
hehe agreed with jade is and well victor tries his pathetic best. but the true problem here is none of the key characters are working together. jade is competent but is a bit of a hardass to work with tabatha always gets to progress only by accident but jim sometimes hold her back victor is well victor no one wants to talk to sara and boyd is too high up his high horse. well atleast jade tried to consult with victor and tabatha. yeh i get tht the place likes to ef with their heads but comeon this is too much now. u cant keep pulling the slight of hand for distraction in every seasons cuz its starting to get old. enough distractions and let them focus on the main objective
This show has always been like this since season one. I don't even know why I watch it. There is no story development and It's so frustrating. It makes sense that these are the same creators of Lost
Frankly lost is miles better. It just had a bad final season...
@@evertchin i still like the final season
The show is set in a mysterious town that traps all who enter. Residents can't leave and must survive nightly attacks by monsters.
The monsters appear human at first but transform into bloodthirsty creatures with sharp teeth. They come out at night and kill anyone not adequately protected.
There are many supernatural elements in the town, including talismans, ghosts, mysterious symbols, and unexplained phenomena.
The town seems to have connections to different time periods, with some elements from the 1950s-1970s and ghosts from the 1800s.
There's a theory that the whole situation might be an elaborate test or experiment to see how far people can be pushed before they break.
Hope seems to "feed the forest" and make the town's supernatural forces stronger, rather than fear.
In the season 2 finale, a potential escape route was discovered when Tabitha woke up in a hospital outside the town after being pushed from a lighthouse.
The monsters appear to want to torture the townspeople as much as kill them, as evidenced by their actions in releasing the town's livestock during a food shortage.
Many mysteries remain unsolved, including the true nature of the monsters, the purpose of the town, and how people get trapped there.
I think the creators are lost too
What creators from Lost wrote From?
After this season I'm done, it's lost my trust.
From has a Terrible pacing issue, scenes lingers on too long and then cut off suddenly in hope of building False Tension but instead doing this just pisses off the audience.
The season finale is not going to save this show From itself 💀
Whenever the reveal comes, it will divide opinion like never before. I personally think the show will be all downhill from there. They have posed way too many questions, and introduced too many useless characters to make any sense of this mess.
I felt early on that this was the type of show where the writers aimed for a character drama with mystery setting
And I think the core mystery is something that could’ve been done in a mini series and they’ve just thrown in additional ”mystery of the week” type stuff to stretch it out over seasons
@@jahivah I think thats the problem with this show. It’s too many useless characters and too much drama. I’ll understand season 1 trying to get everyone on the same page into half way of season 2. But for it to be season 3 and these mfs don’t know how to communicate still, share useful information, and stop putting blame on people without little to no grace knowing the place they in drive people crazy is wild to me.
Unfortunately, I must agree, and the more they prolonging it the worse answers to this whole mess will be.
Some of the guest on our show don’t Bellinger they have any idea where they want the show to go. They called the wet rice on the wall.
I fear that the show will be canceled
It’s crazy that we still know NOTHING.
Genuinely! I'm hoping we'll get something!
It's not true
We do know that Fatima and Ellis have overstayed their welcome. They need to get shanked like fatima shanked tillie
Episode 9 is something big, but not enough
I miss the episodes with the monsters and feel like the show will be canceled between seasons and we won't get a proper answer about the town.
Yeah I really want to see more of the creatures too!
It will definitely get cancelled if everyone keeps complaining about it not giving answers instead of just enjoying the story and mysteries.
@@daiseylj i just bored series cancelled without answers. Like The Society. I want serious answers, at least strong clues about fromtown.
Yeah I’d be shocked if they get a fourth season
@@daiseyljbruh the story needs payoffs and we are barely getting them. You want 27 seasons of mystery?
Is it just me or would others like to see Boyd put Fatima in the box only to have the creatures lead her off to the cave. Then she comes back and convinces Boyd’s son to let her in and she kills him. Surely that would break Boyd.
dude if this happens god u need to pull the lottery
I want Fatima in the box if she won't leave. I want Acosta in the box period. I don't believe the creatures will kill Boyd - they've overtly turned down 2 chances to do so this season alone.
Fatima will give birth to smiley monster and man in yellow will kill jim in final episode
@@aparsharma5335 old news but this wasn’t a prediction. It was a question of if a scenario would be good or not. Honestly, very few people would post what you posted, decent people would delete it.
That’d be awesome
E7 was the worst of the series so far and S3 is worse than S2, which was hard to achieve. Some have tried to push the narrative this show is about trauma and "human dimension" to hide the fact this season is a total let down. Most likely the last 2 ep will give some answers (but more questions), will close some of the astronomical amount of storylines opened and developed in a nonsense way, and will end with some impactful cliffhanger, but that won't change the fact this season was a scam.
Hahah😂😂 i like your comment.
this season was a scam💚.
I’m sick of the stupid constant visions and dreams the characters get they go nowhere
If the show was over and we could watch all the seasons it wouldn’t be bad. But we all just want something before a cliffhanger and a 2 year wait!!!
This show is heading down the toilet if they don't get it together. NOTHING happened in this season. They may as well have not even released this season.
I'm hoping the final three episodes will provide something!
@@BrainPilot final 2 :( episode 8 was empty
A lot happened this season
this should have been from's last season, completely losing grip and engagement, one new mistery after another one, not as effective anymore, just annoying, now we have another huge cliffhander for season 4 and that's it
100% I called it too watched episode 9 and thought they are just going to leave it on a cliffhanger again just one thing after another needed to conclude this season
Lol. Yes. How many times we had to see Fatima eating crap. Too true.
It’s clear the writers/creators are just attempting to prolong the story for as many season as they can get… and with that they are creating more questions than answers and dragging it….
Shows like this need to have a definitive season plan to tell a story and not deviate. Three seasons without answers is too much. We should have answers this season and another season to see if they can escape
I totally agree with you. We get a lot of questions and sub-plots, but barely any answers or resolutions in this series.
We get for example, the following questions/subplots with barely any answer:
- Nobody talks about a plan to escape anymore
- Nobody talks about destoying the cave with the monsters anymore
- A journey to the lighthouse
- Tabitha's stupid decistions in the real world (sorry, had to put it here)
- Catching a creature. What's up with that?
- Sara being in the Town. She has killed people
- in season 1, everybody wanted to talk with Victor about his past, but he was gone. When he returned, nobody talked with him. Only Tabitha eventually talked with him
- Jim's plan to create a radio tower. There was just 1 storm, and now he just does nothing anymore.
- Kristi's wild mullet haircut
- Etcetera
I fear that the show will be canceled before we get answers
Why are there here?? What is this place?
what are those monsters? who is the boy in white dress?
How can they all get out?? where is that dog??
What is happening to Fatima? What is that symbol?
Who are those children? Significance of Angkhooey???
Cicadas?? Tower? tree blocking the road??
Trees getting closer as mentioned by victor? the night of slaughter?
The woman bothering Elgin? what about Jasper?
Motel Sign? Portals opened by trees? Tabitha's dream???
The World War soldier? the bottles around the trees and the numbers found in those bottles?
The creepy puppets outside the wooden cottages? The navy man who gave Boyd the worms????
Red stones? transfer of worms to monsters? The cave system? The talisman???
what abotu sara and the voices she heard and her role in the beginning ??
27 episodes and not even a single thing has been answered.. yet, they keep adding more twists??
its kinda getting bored and i feel like they are goign to mess it all up like they did with "LOST"..
From watching it as a horror show, one of my favs actually, season 3 turned this into white noise that I put myself to sleep now. So disappointed
@@zarrar20ify thank you adding this
@@PunnuCooks yeah same
Every single one of these questions you’re asking is just the result of not watching the show.
We quite literally just watched Dale die from an escape attempt, the town isn’t too keen on trying an escape plan after that.
The caves have been shown multiple times to be highly elaborate. Not sure what you want them to destroy the caves with, but it seems like a rather big waste of time considering the vastness of the tunnel system.
Again, see what I see earlier for the answer to this lighthouse question. Dale tried. He died.
Could go on, just try paying attention and a lot of these will be answered.
Doesn’t change the fact there are still a lot of questions unanswered, you’re just asking the wrong ones
This show would be great if they just had a small cast. The fact that they try to add more cast and more mysteries is whats killing it. Acosta now takes the role of Dale and Randall. Bakita will take Kennys mother role and take over the diner. When you see to many people having difficulties understanding the show or having different theories just proves the show has lacked in delivering one thing.. a story line
Yeah there's almost too much for their own good! I really like the show but the stories just piling on top of one another me is just getting a bit too much to keep track of
what if it's to show that the town is in some sort of cycle? to show that history repeats and everybody is truly stuck
They’ve barely gone up in cast whatsoever, people literally had a theory about replacement last season specifically because for how many people are killed close to an equivalent is introduced.
That was my issue with season 2 and the people on the bus 😩 I WAS GUTTED like omg this is the laaaast thing we need. A million more characters to eat food thats scarce and use up resources.
You absolutely nailed it. 100%. I have nothing to add, because this is exactly how I feel. Great video and analysis 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
I concur, from the interviews i've read the showrunners had the beginning and the end laid out...and the middle was pieced together along the way. it feels like we are in the middle, filling episodes with 'filler' to get to the handful of moments that really matter
From Season 3 biggest problem: To many questions, not enough answers
I stopped watching a couple episodes into Season 2 cos I felt this was where the show was gonna go.. seems I was right - do they keep teasing a mystery that’s never answered?
Not enough answers❌
Not even one answer✅
From biggest problem: Too many questions, not enough answers
Biggest problem: too much screen time for Fatima and Ellis.
If ratings drop too low they’ll be no season 4 then you’ll get no answers at all
That would be so sad!
And that’ll be the writers fault …
If season 4 it worse than season 3 then good riddance
The general problem of the show is that it's too slow. There are too many useless dialogues and scenes. Fortunately, episodes 8 and 9 are finally giving us the beginning of some answers.
I think they should just reduce the next season to 5 or 6 episodes, which will enhance the rhythm and allow the producers to focus on what's essential.
Problems:
Too much soapie drama - not enough action
Too many questions upon questions and not enough (no!) answers
It’s “Lost” all over again and I am afraid that this is all going to be a joke on the audience 😩
Exactly!
I keep a 10TB hard drive of my favorites shows/movies.
If this season doesn't finish in a satisfying way, I have to delete the first 3 seasons and give up. It feels like nothing has happened since the start of season 1. . Every episode sets up the next, but then the next just drags into some new un-interesting plot point. I don't get why they won't just write anything satisfying..
You absolutely nailed it with this video. I'm looks like episode 8 will be exactly the same amount of nothing as well. Seasons being 90% nothing, 10% cliffhanger is just not good enough. They've really let us down this season. I don't have enough investment in any of the characters for me to suffer through bad pacing.
Id take 2 seasons with mystery and answers/resolution over six seasons at this pace. I just used 6 as an example
Yeah let's enjoy 2 seasons of mystery and answers where nobody cares about all the characters because there is no time to develop them since in just 20 episode u need to think only about solving mysteries, amazing take dude! U should be a writer
@@SimonTargaryen there's ZERO character development. if there were then all those pointless filler episodes would've been character dedicated episodes.
@@sanantonio855 how there's zero character development they literally focused sooo much on Randall, Julie, the relationship between Victor and his dad and also the new police officer
@@SimonTargaryen no they did a shitty scene where they drive. victor and his dad barely get any talks, and the new police officer is yet another shitty character in a show that has about two dozen too many. in lost you'd get whole episodes focused on one character not a bunch of filler jumping from one scene to the other
@@sanantonio855 Kiddo in Lost you have TWENTYFOUR EPISODES EACH SEASON to develop EVERY character, of course they can't to the same development lmao what are we even talking about????? What they did here it's more than enough for this series with these characters, they gave space to characters in these episodes and in the ending episodes of the seasons they'll give us answers and showing us new things. Nothing bad about it.
A handful of questions were definitely answered in season 3. They said during a comic con interview prior to this season coming out that the show is "a character drama masquerading as a horror" with the mysteries serving to further the character development. Lets be honest, knowing the show was produced by the same people that made LOST, we all knew what we were getting into. Enjoy the ride for better or worse. We wouldnt be coming back each week if it wasn't keeping us intrigued.
I've come across the leaks for S3's homestretch. They're out there for sure but deliver some majors reveals that satisfyingly pay off the set up that's been worked into the narrative; it also feels as though some definitive answers have been/will be provided a tad too soon so I'm reserving my overall judgment on how exactly they'll shake up the status quo.
Thank you so much for not spoiling. ☺️
how did it get leaked. is it legit
Since the beginning, even though I was very interested in the show, I feared it would end up similar to The Blacklist, where the writers seem to have wanted to eventually explain everything, but since there was *so much* to explain, and since it was so complex it would’ve taken an entire season (or at least a few episodes to explain), so maybe the network was against that and made them go in a different direction, abandoning the story because it was either too much to explain, or maybe they thought the majority of the audience wouldn’t be interested. (Fans were divided - many fans had decided to believe in a different story that did not account for the thousands of clues the writers intricately weaved into the story).
For the first 2 seasons of From, I tried so hard to not believe that, the producers said it would not end up like Lost - but the more I analyzed the story, the more I thought that they are going to run into issues, *likely with the network,* because networks are not interested in complex stories, but stories that appeal to the majority of viewers who aren’t interested in shows that they have to think a lot about to figure out, but instead just sort of blindly watch like background entertainment.
I just now looked up to find out what happened with the show concerning networks, and found out that From went from UA-cam Red, to Epix, then for the 3rd season went to MGM+, and that matches what I said previously. But, I’m biased against MGM, because of the Stargate franchise, so….??? But I DO know one thing for sure: The network has a lot of say with the writing & story.
I’d love to know the truth about what the writers originally planned for this show - I bet it’s very different from what it is now.
The show is bringing up more questions and that’s a serious issue… by the third season I expect some answers. This is feeling like lost all over again.
The from formula is this..
Introduce a new idea, and tease it for 3episodes, then completely abandon it while answering absolutely nothing.
i am really disappointed at this season so far . i feel like this will be a another show where it will canceled without giving any proper answers
The biggest problem is the carrot dangling. I never get the carrot. I realized how the show just sucks as the engaging part is trying to figure it out. Once the reveal is there its over. I stopped caring. Im out.
The threat of the monsters outside at night has greatly diminished since season 1. I thought the whole chasing the animals through the streets thing was ridiculous, if people were faced with watching their food run away, or facing down supernatural monsters that will mutilitate them with smiles on their faces, they will watch the food run away.
Great point
I forgot about the dog too...like the dog led to the talismans, the dog led B+ others away from the creatures and when's the last time we saw it? We've been w/ Tabitha since season 1, why are we just now learning she had these nightmares as a kid?
Cos they only find the red stones in season 3 lol. Tabitha had no idea she was seeing Fromville. She just thought it was a scary, recurring nightmare. Chances are, other characters may also find that they saw the town before they got there (Abby and maybe even Jade since he keeps seeing these visions that seem more like memories@@maloneaqua
@@maloneaquaBecause Tabitha saw a drawing made by Jade. Before that she thought it was just a nightmare she had as a little girl.
Its like they just forgot how scary the inital premise was.
"You cant escape the town, you cant go out at night. The talismans and escaping the overall threat are probably related"
That is MORE THAN ENOUGH for a good mystery horror show. Instead, they just keep digging and digging the hole deeper until you just dont care. Anyone can see or decide to do anything because of the powerful magic, and anything can happen to them. How can you have tension in a show like that without inserting unbelievable stupid relationship drama?
You can't.
Next time the monsters show up, they may randomly decide to do nothing like they have the last few times. Now, when I see them, instead of being terrified, im just curious what kind of mood they are in.
Anyone can hallucinate and therefore do stupid things. Anyone can teleport. That teleportation can take you anywhere randomly. Anyone can survive an encounter with monsters. Anyone can have any effect when they come into contact with biological agents such as demon blood or rotting fruit. Anyone can suddenly remember things that happened to other characters.
There is no structure or sense of lore. There are no rules. You cant keep tension in a story with no rules.
In Lost, people assumed that the rules were just obscure. Then we realised they didnt make sense and it was all a waste of time.
The writers are literally doing the same thing now.
This show had a distinct advantage over the walking dead. The monsters in From are invincible, and there is clearly a goal other than survive: Escape. The Walking Dead lost all that because they didnt have any reason for the characters to leave or do anything different besides "some other group comes along and they are bad".
This show does the opposite. It has room to grow and motivate the characters only there are now A HUNDRED of them instead of 5.
The main problem is the writing. They are telling and not showing. It's just bad. 99% of the dialogue it's reiterating what already happened. If the last ep of the current season doesn't answer at least one fucking question I'm done. Wasted potential.
What happened to Boyd's plot to capture a creep? Writers seem to have forgotten and moved on.
The writers of this show has no idea how to answer any of the questions they've raised, they'll just keep creating further red herrings, rabbit holes, and goose chases and then breathe a sigh of relief when the show is inevitably cancelled. Just like Wayward Pines, 1899, Night Sky, Y the Last Man, and whatever else we watched over the last several years. The writers have no clue how to wrap this up so they'll just keep making it weirder and weirder until the show is dropped. Been there, done that.
It's like they got 5 episodes of material but 10 episodes to fill that material into. I've lost hope we'll get any answers out of this show
I think the puppet will only talk to jade, last time it talked everyone died except for victor, idk about the season 3 finale.
Did Boyd just forget about capturing a monster or did I miss something?
Donna talked him out of it
@ Oh yeah she did, I did miss something 😂
@@ayodeleawolaludonna was a hunter with her sister but now she backs out hahaha from s3 is 💩
@@_good_for.I think hunting a thinking, feeling and strategic monster with claws is a little different than hunting a deer lol
One answer: Yes, you can go back to the real world.
Another: yes, you can come back from the real world to Fromville.
1 episode left of this season, pretty much nothing of value has happened so far, we’ve learned next to nothing about the monsters, or any way to escape, but hey at least we get about 50% of each episodes screen time centred around fatima and ellis, because that’s SO entertaining
This show shows you how communication is so important in relationships
Definitely, and how a lack of it can have terrible outcomes!
A great summation!
I can't believe I've given this show so much of my time, and for so little return. It feels like endless teases - especially (surprise surprise!) at the ends of episodes, thus guaranteeing that I'll be back for the next one, only to find little or no resolution.
It's just more and more "stuff" happening, and every time another baffling event pops out of nowhere, I just shrug and think "Yeah, why not?"
It's fine to have lots of intriguing things happening, but we need _some_ resolution, instead of just more "WTF?" moments. We need confidence that this is going somewhere, that the writers know what's going on and are taking us on a journey with a worthwhile destination, instead of constantly pointing out of the train window and saying "Whooo! Look at that scenery!"
I suspect that this season will end with yet another "incredible" event, just to get us hooked for season four, but the ratings suggest that viewers have had enough of being strung along, and want answers. Any answers.
The forums and the interwebs should be full of people speculating on what's actually going on, drawing on evidence from the show to build coherent theories - but I'm struggling to find anything other than head-scratching and frustration. And in these days of series cancellations at the drop of a hat, that's not good policy.
I think that you centered the main issue of the show. I am a bit divided, because from one end I really would like to see the reveal of the mystery, but I am quite tired of waiting all this time to finally have a glimpse of what all this fuss is about. I understand thast the nature of this show is slow paced and it is very character driven, but at some point you need to progress and even hard dying fans at some point they demand some tangible resolutions. I hope that the last two episodes that are titled Revelations, will finally shed some light on what is happenning. We are 27 episodes in and I feel that very little progression has been made.
That's the thing it's not like we want all the answers right now we just want some kind of decent pacing and maybe one answer they're adding so many Mysteries that there's no way they're going to even answer half of them when it's early season 3 30 episodes with practically zero answers
what a fkin joke. It is incredible how this got renewed for 3 seasons.
Seriously this is so slow... Everyone in the show just keeps on talking how they feel instead of asking the real questions. Even from the 2nd season no answers were given...who was the guy in the cave...who he was referring to How he know Boyd's wife who tied him with those chains...Now where is the white boy who lead Tabitha...who are those children...what is that mark... who created these monsters...how it's related to the lighthouse.....
I mean you are right enough of fatma it should've taken barely 4 ep for the truth to be revealed and now we are at the 8th ep no nothing is there. It's like they are just creating stories without any conclusion at the first place.
If we're being totally honest, the show runners know they got a good series and they are willing to risk it and drag this series on for as long as possible, all for the $$$. season 3 in its entirety has become, what is Fatima's pregnancy.
Am i the only one who think Season 3 is the best Season so far? So many people complain the same about answers, while i enjoying theory and i think the writer will wrap up everything in the next season. For Me Season 3 is the best, so intense.
producers of Lost making the same mistakes all over again, bringing up more and more questions for the sake of cliffhangers, stretching out the plot too thin until nobody cares anymore. i am out to be honest
1. What is the Town?
The town traps people who enter, preventing them from leaving. It seems to have supernatural qualities and is connected to an unknown force or entity.
2. What are the Monsters?
The monsters appear human but transform into horrific creatures at night. They seem to be driven by a desire to kill and may have a connection to the town's supernatural elements.
3. What are the Talismans?
Talismans are used by residents as a means of protection against the monsters. Their effectiveness and origin remain unclear.
4. What is the Significance of Ghosts?
Ghosts from different time periods appear throughout the town, suggesting that there may be a deeper connection between the town's past and present. They often influence or interact with living characters.
5. What About the Strange Phenomena?
Elements like power wires connected to nothing, ghost calls, and mysterious critters contribute to an atmosphere of confusion and dread, indicating that reality in the town is warped.
6. What Do the Ghosts Want?
Some ghosts seem to manipulate or guide living characters, while others appear hostile. The motivations of these spirits are often ambiguous, adding to the show's tension.
7. What is the Role of Rituals and Symbols?
Rituals, stones, and pictograms hint at an ancient or ongoing conflict within the town, possibly tied to its supernatural nature.
8. Why Are People Trapped?
The reason for their entrapment is not fully explained but suggests themes of punishment, testing, or a cycle that repeats itself.
9. Is There Hope for Escape?
Characters like Tabitha have hinted at possible escape routes, but success remains uncertain as they face numerous obstacles.
10. What Happens Next?
The show intentionally leaves many questions unanswered, creating suspense and encouraging speculation about future developments.
@@FunnyProducer see how you can provide a lot of detail without revealing any information? that's the show. they give us the "what" and the "how", never a single "why"
The show is not finished yet. All these people in the comments have no idea on how to make a coherent story. There is a lot of threads and there is still two more seasons planned.
It has not bit of more than it can chew. If you can’t see the ending clearly now, then you have not been paying attention.
Exactly
yup 3 filler episodes in a row like hurry the fuck up with the spiders and demons.
I just want some freaking answers.
What's with the bugs in Boyd's arm?
Why did it kill the creature?
Is it still there in his body?
What's with Tabitha and her visions?
What's with her daughter, Julie, and the other 2?
What's their connection to the visions they collectively had in season 2?
Who's the old guy locked in the tower?
He didn't recognize Boyd but he recognized Julie, why?
Why does only Randall see and hear the bugs?
Why do Julie and Randall only seem to be experiencing visions of delusions and not also Marielle?
Why does Victor say he wants to fix things and can help and he knows how to do X, only to back out immediately when he feels discomfort, leaving the audience frustrated and confused (peak edging imo)?What the actual F! does annchooey mean?!
How about: ehat arethe damn talismans and/or where did they come from?
Like can we get an answer to something?!?!
I have the answer. They are in a magic town and literally anything can happen to anyone at any time.
You wont guess how it all works because the writers dont know either. Those supernatural rules thay established the first season?
Forget them. Who cares?! We have dreams and people screaming and seeing dead people that no one else can and also people attacking their friends because of their hallucinations to get through. You wanted more of that right? Good, because it's easy to write. It doesnt have to make sense and the writers dont have to progress the story. Thats the easiest form of qriting to do.
Episodes 9 and 10 should answer a lot… I hope. Otherwise I really don’t see how we can give this show any more attention. I love this show but we can only put up with so much for so long. I’m getting West World vibes…
I hope they do!
Ep. 9 was disappointing :(
I'm still depressed we didn't get that last season of Westworld
Theory: Everyone there is already dead. The tree is just symbolic of the aftermath of an accident.
On one hand I agree with most fans, on the other I hate when shows over cater to fans. I love that From is character driven, and generally am ok with slower instead of instant gratification. But, the show needs to start disclosing more about what happens and they can without compromising the quality of the storytelling
Do you have an example of a show catering to fans that seems like a blanket statement
@@KittyChibiWaifu Then, just don't continue the show. Reveal something now, and leave the big answers for grand finale. It's simple as that. That's all they have to do.
@@KittyChibiWaifu If you are a bad writer no amount of fans can save the show. This is why GoT first 6 seasons were epic then came the season 7 and 8 which the audience hated because of how it was rushed and didn't make sense. What I'm saying is you have to have a balance between pace and storytelling instead of just adding mysteries after mysteries with no conclusions.
@@VSMOKE1 Every woke show is like celebs catering to democrats via p diddy

List of questions:
Whats with the doll?
Who made the talismans and why do they work?
Why did Boyd hallucinate worms? Why isnt that happening anymore?
How did he kill a monster?
What do any of the 15 characters having their own hallucinations actually mean for the story?
What's with the spider webs?
What was that thing with the 3 prisoners?
Why have the monsters suddenly stopped caring about killing people half the time?
Why does eating rotten vegetables reincarnate the monsters?
Why did tabitha go up the lighthouse and just see a big spotlight instead of the children?
That weird dungeon that Boyd was in, what makes you able to enter that place other than the writers deciding to do a scene there?
Why was the bald dude spared by the monsters?
Why was there food at that remote village?
Why was that gallbladder scene even included?
Why do they abandon half of their most sensible plans to learn more and instead just run off into the forest thinking that their hallucinations are automatically going to help them?
When being crazy and seeing things is so common and sometimes insightful, why do people constantly hide their hallucinations until the writer wants to progress the conspiracy?
Why is everyone so understanding about sarah having killed people when they get suspicious and angry with eachother over the tiniest of infractions?
I know victor is conveniently insane so that he only contributes helpful information when the writers wish to but why dont people try to consult someone with so much expertise and establish a timeline of facts from the beginning of the story?
What what so bad about tabitha digging that hole when there is another entrance into the same cavern just sitting in the middle of the forest?
Why does boyd expect new families to nail their windows shut instead of doing it to a house before he moves a family into there? (This really peeved me)
The most recent ambulance wasnt driving on some interstate trip but to a hospital that they have been to a hundred times, so how did they not notice the moment that they were on an unfamiliar forrest road long before they ran into the tree?
What happened to the drone?
How many spare talismans do they have?
Are the monsters fireproof along with bullet proof?
Is there any point even trying to understand the biological rules associated with these 6000 different forms of spooky magic?
And my final question:
In a story where magic exists and literally anything can happen at any time and we also cant trust anything that any of the characters see, WHY SHOULD I CARE?
There is no tension when a monster or force of evil is omni powerful and randomly decides to let the characters do something they couldnt do before or spare someone they normally wouldnt have spared.
I just dont give a shit. They could make someone fly or turn into a giant bee and sing lady gaga and it would be just as strange as the rest of the stuff that happens. The show has lost all of its pace and structure.
Its pretty boring untill the end. Still no answers, not even one, just more questions.
They should have kept Tabitha in Maine for longer. The contrast between Fromville and the real world and being stuck in-between was interesting and I was looking forward for her to find answers for us.
Episode 7 was the first episode I half paid attention which means I guess it’s getting boring to me, shame.
That is a shame!
I was feeling asleep T.T
The worst thing you can do Artistically is come up with a great concept, not flesh it out but put it out there in the world anyway and just pretend your way through. Its the worst kind of art. Someone had a cool thought and nothing else after that (what if people wind up in a town they cant get out of). And they put out a whole show out about it. Its a waste of time
Right now im watching FROM and The Penguin, look forward to it every week.
Same here 😊
Me too!!!
lol same here
Yellow man a day walker, Teacup is a goner, and Smiley is back...what more do you want?
I like the pace hell if it was us in the show it would probably take years to figure shit out our selfs I wish it was more episodes per season tho
It's true, but if it had more episodes or a longer run time then it would probably work better!
I think you've nailed it. At this pace you need more episodes per season. The result of what we have currently is going to be a cancelled show that just left people hanging.
Great idea. Nice comment
I recommend to skip watching this series. It only drags you to watch more and more, but you will know nothing in 3 seasons. They find real clues, but these clues get abandoned soon in order to make more and more seasons for you to watch.
I feel weird for liking how things are going
I like how it's going aswell.
Me too, loving this season.
Remember, these are the people behind the show Lost. We all know how that turned out.
I feel like the number of theories on UA-cam gives most people too high expectations. It seems like they expect that the answers to all their questions/theories will come within a week. And then, when an episode is mostly buildup, people are disappointed.
In my opinion, the problem is not at all with the show, but with the expectations of the viewers (or at least the ones complaining).
Remember The Brundles? Neither do the writers. Just like most of the crap they've thrown at the wall making it all impossible to ever explain.
@spellegren The Brundles were a place where people went to go for fun. To relax, have a swim and forget about everything. The fact that nobody goes here now anymore shows perfectly how the whole atmosphere in Colony House has changed.
Maybe the location will be featured in another episode at some point, but I don't see any problems here?
I just want the monsters😂 its becoming not scary
True we should probably stop with our extravagant theories cause we are just setting ourselves up for disappointment. If the show gave us more clues it would be different now we fill in blanks & even create more blanks the writers did not even think about.
Even in LOST we got an answer who Others are at the end of the second season, and in FROM... nothing, just more questions. It's annoying.
It wasn't just how bad episode 7 was. It was just an episode where you come to finally realize just how shallow the show actually is. The only thing good about the show is the premise. Thats all that is keeping you watching. Everything else is horrible
This show has a fascinating concept and creates a unique dynamic that keeps us guessing. Every time we get one answer, it's immediately followed by ten more questions. It's like a riddle trapped in a puzzle, wrapped in a maze! One of the major mysteries is about the motel-where is it, and what happened to it? Henry pointed out, "How come we see a sign, but there's no motel?" I also think the numbers in the bottles might represent hotel room numbers. At some point, I predict the motel will become a central element in this story.
While I understand the comparisons to Lost, there are significant differences. What made Lost so iconic was its strong, alpha male leaders. However, in this show, all the men seem to be portrayed as beta males who struggle with making logical leadership decisions. They often rely on mentally stronger female counterparts. For example, Boyd follows Donna, Jim defers to Tabitha, Kristi leads Kenny, and Ellis looks up to Fatima. Conversely, the men who display alpha-like qualities, such as Jade and Randall, are depicted as jerks or bullies.
Throughout human history, when people face extreme situations and adversity, we tend to revert to our natural roles: men often become warriors and protectors, while women take on the roles of healers and nurturers. But here, the men seem passive, almost waiting for those around them to be killed. A prime example is Frank, who drinks himself unconscious instead of protecting his family, allowing the monster to slaughter them. No real man would do that when he has a scared little girl at home. It’s an intriguing writing choice-every male character is led by a stronger female. Even Julie shows better leadership skills than her own father, Jim. I don't think this is a mere oversight; it seems intentional, creating more intrigue and conflict in the storyline.
The lack of communication among the characters adds to the show's chaos. No one is trying to come up with a plan of attack; they’re all just surviving as best they can. In reality, when humans face threats, we don’t just sit around waiting-we build walls, moats, and traps. Human creativity, especially in the art of survival and war, is unmatched. Yet, all of this seems absent in the show’s portrayal of their survival efforts.
Despite these observations, I think it's a great show, and I’m excited to see how it all unfolds in the end!
It's story buildin, season 1 was an intro to the game, the town and the rules. Season 2 was character building, creating familiarity to relate to and finding the puzle pieces. Season 3 has been about finding a table to put the puzzle together at, all 11 episodes they've been looking for a table
I can understand why the viewing has gone down. This show is slowly turning into LOST. Everyone's acting like Victor. Can't finish their sentence, Can't face remembering anything.
I feel like for 10+ episodes now, I keep thinking "This next episode will be INSANE and finally give us something" and every single episode ends with no progression.
I just don't understand how they decided to quickly swap between so many plotlines instead of sticking with a few and giving some satisfying answers in the meantime.
i think the show is holding to the big reveal with hopes they’ll get another season… but that’s not it works anymore with tv.
I'm intrigued to see what this new reveal could possibly be!
I think people are tuning out because people know they are being strung along by filler. As you said, Miranda had a dream as a child which we saw the episode before and now she at the same spot and it's all being explained to us with her husband being the skeptic which makes no sense in the place they are in to be that way. "Honey how could you have dreamed of a place you had never been before" also I talked to our dead son on the phone two night ago on a phone that wasn't even plugged into anything.
Also I thought the whole Miranda made it out into the real world would have had some sort of pay off other than bringing back Victors dad. I mean, that was kind of waste of time. She called her mom, farted around and ended up back in Fromville.
Spoiler alert ‼️ For those interested in a summary of the upcoming last episodes 9 & 10, I’ll paste it in this comment… your welcome 🙃
++9-10 SPOILERS+ +
Boyd and some colony house ppl figure out Elgin has Fatima hidden and they kidnap and torture him to tell them where she is but he doesnt say. He keeps saying "it" told him it was the only way to save the town. Boyd realizes Sara said similar things when she was killing folx in ssni so he goes to her. She says he'll never tell them be she remembers how she felt.
While boyd and the others are areguing they hear elgin screaming and go upstairs and sara has blinded him/removed an eye (hard to tell) and says Fatima is at the root cellar.
Jade, Tabitha, Victor, and Jim realize the bottle tree numbers only go as high as 12 and they might be musical notes, Jade says he will stand in the woods and play the notes on his violin and see what happens. I saw someone on this sub guess it might be about music so good for them be they were right.
And now the big ending things:
Boyd goes to where Fatima is. She has found a hatch in the floor of the room she is being kept in but cant open it. She gives birth to a baby-sized fleshy pod. The kimono woman appears and takes the pod down the hatch. Boyd quickly comes in and follows kimono. She goes to a chamber where all the monsters are standing in a circle and puts the pod in the middle. It grows very fast and turns into a standing man, who turns around and it is the smiling man monster reborn.
In the woods, Jade plays the song and one of the angkhooey children shows up. She sais angkhooey one more time and it looks like it snaps something in both Jade and Tabitha. Tabitha runs off and jade says "oh god." Jade then says angkhooey means "remember" but doesnt explain why.
Jim goes to talk to tabitha who remembers she's been here before and was victor's mother, and jade was christopher, explaining why they see things related to both.
Tabitha also remembers that she and jade were 2 original people in fromville, and one of the grey children was theirs in a life long, long ago. Apparently most of the town sacrificed the children because "it" said they could live forever if they did.
I'm just speculating but that seems to be connected to the monsters who are maybe also original citizens who made the deal. Jade and Tabitha didn't and "tried to save them." Tabitha tells Jim she needs time now that she remembers.
RIGHT at the end, while jim is processing, a short haired julie runs up to him, probably from the future. She says he has to run and "this is when it happens" and then someone says "hello jim" and a bald man in a yellow suit appears. julie tells him to run. The man says "you shouldnt have let your wife dig that hole" and rips out jim's throat while julie screams. It should be noticed this final scene takes place in daylight so the rules for the man in yellow are different than the monsters.
Damn!!🤯
Boyd:"I'm trying to keep you all alive!"
Victor: "I don't wanna talk about it, I have to go now"
Fatima: "there's something inside me"
Must be the 3 most used sentences In a single season in tv history.
I stopped after watching season 1 because of the same exact problem.
They are wasting time on unnecessary human drama and rarely tackles the mystery of the place.
FROM is LOST. The creators care more about the characters’ journey than solving the mystery. There will be no answer
I dont think they care about anything but dragging into more seasons to make more money
This show is not going in the direction I thought it was, based on major clues they gave us from the beginning (like Jade’s soliloquy in S01E05 about Klein, Hardis, Einstein, Podolsky, & Rosen, then Trudy ‘reads his mind’, & asks a question that relates to his internal thoughts that she didn’t hear what he said to himself, but what she said to him was as if she knew, and she made other comments that relates to her being like a planeswalker who has that ability) - which is purposeful by the writers, it’s a literary device that’s genre specific, used in supernatural & science fiction types of shows - so this makes me wonder what the H is going on.
Impatient viewers are why TV will always be subpar garbage. Walking Dead was how many seasons of no answers but mediocre plotting but gave you action. From is actual interesting build up that idiots are gonna ruin.
From who's perspective is this show supposed to be? The people? I also know that these people know nothing about this place, they are as clueless as anyone, they spend everyday looking for answers, its dangerous to go looking for answers out in the night. So what exactly are we expecting the answers to come from? How are the townspeople supposed to go looking out for answers? What exactly is it they are supposed to do? Catch one of the monsters? cause we all know the monsters are going to answer all these questions right? definitely not screech. Maybe they should try going out at night and look for the answers because that's when shii goes down and that's a good idea, they could use the bile from smiley(oh wait that didn't work). I'm glad this show is getting more audience but now all these people don't know how to enjoy the creativity and art. They want a quick fix scare, saying season three should wrap things up, so what exactly is season 4 and 5 going to contain? Someone please help me through the last part.
This show is a prime example that releasing a full season of a show can be better than 1 episode at a time. I have faith In The last few episodes of the season but if it came out all at once the whole season would’ve been seen as amazing.
Lol you might want to put a check in that faith.
waiting a week between episodes just to see fatima having a fucking meltdown for 3 weeks straight is horrible when it’s the only content you have for that week, people find it fun to theorise about the mysteries but there’s not really much going on right now worth talking about
I hate the fact that they stopped trying to build the Radio Tower after they know something communicated with them to stop and since the storm to destroy it
What happened to the silver bullets they made? Am i missing something? What happened to capturing the monsters. Idk
The capturing of the monsters was what I was most looking forward too lol
The bullets didn't work. they fired them at the creatures in the episode before, or the same episode where Boyd killed smiley. they did nothing.
3rd season and we still know nothing. episode 7 doesn't explain the dreams she had as a child or ghost that keeps appearing. 3/10 for my vote.
The entire series has huge problems. The writing is slow rolling every single thing, while introducing more questions that will never, ever be answered. It's been this way since the first season and I have no idea how the show got renewed afterwards.
Whatever happened to "The Brundles" in season two? Never heard about them again.
Bro... it's winter.. there's snow and ice everywhere... where do u think The Brundles is? lmao
The minute I learned that the showrunners of Lost made this, I figured this would be the situation
This season is ruining the show
Man, what happened to From? Season 3 feels like it’s totally lost track of what made the show interesting. Now, it's mostly focused on personal drama that doesn’t go anywhere, and the main mystery feels like a distant memory. It’s like the writers are more invested in dragging out pointless subplots than giving us any real progression. At this rate, even if the monsters took over, at least we’d get a change in pace! It’s such a shame to watch a show that started strong get bogged down by all these distractions.
