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

Even though there's still too many unanswered questions and season 3 hasn't been quite as good as the first two seasons it's still worth watching. Overall, From is every bit as good as all the hype surrounding it. It was definitely a lot better than anything I was expecting. Even though there is horror and some gore in it, this show is so much more than just some horror show. They keep finding new creative ways to keep the show interesting. Each season adds new characters and how they react to being stuck there. It's a very clever show that has a lot of unknown and mystery to it. Every answer we get just leads to more questions and I'm worried that there's going to be more questions than answers but so far it has been a fun show to watch. I just started the third season and while not quite as good it continues to entertain.
The preview looked like a hodgepodge of several different shows like Wayward Pines ,Lost and a little Under the Dome thrown in. I expected it to have a vague storyline after seeing that it's produced by the same makers as Lost but it has a solid storyline and the characters are likable. While not perfect, it does have suspense and is good enough to keep me hooked. A pleasant surprise.
Season 1 & 2 were lit, but they are unnecessarily stretching the episodes of season 3 which is irritating. Season 3 episode was good, but after that simply they are building up some moments that is not getting us emotionally connect with the situation and I mostly fast forwarded several unwanted conversations with the characters. It was very thrilling previously, but now became a drama which seems inappropriate. I think after the first episode in season 3, rest of the 8 episodes can be actually compressed in to 3 episodes max. May be they have plans for another season. But this method of stretching episodes are not ideal as most of the fans find it irritating, including me. Hope they corrects the issue in next season.
I wasn't sure what to expect from From. I've read everything from it's like Lost to it's a generic horror version of Lost. Lost is one of my favorite shows ever and the reviews for this have been mostly positive so I figured I'd give it a try and I'm glad I did. I was hooked from the first episode to the last. I'm so glad they already renewed this because there are so many unanswered questions still. That's probably the only negative thing I have say about this show, it takes a long time to answer questions and when they do more pop up. It takes a little time to really get going but once it does you'll be addicted and want to binge it as quickly as possible.

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