Quality of acting is low, main storyline is not clear, there are sub-plots that go nowhere like 74th book of the bible being written? How does this even apply to this storyline. The trek into the woods leads to nothing meaningful. What'sQuality of acting is low, main storyline is not clear, there are sub-plots that go nowhere like 74th book of the bible being written? How does this even apply to this storyline. The trek into the woods leads to nothing meaningful. What's the deal with the spiders? Why is the town separated between 'the town people' and Colony House and why do they have to decide permanently where they choose to live? I know the story is headed somewhere, but so far it has gone nowhere. The 'creatures' have been a very small part of the first season - probably less than 1% of the total screen time. The first season mainly revolves around storylines within the community. There are much better series to spend your time on. Expand

Total crapfest. Dialogues, dialogues, dialogues, some weird shyt not making any sense happens, back to dialogues. Anyway it doesn't matter, anything happens is forgotten the following episode. Garbage

Started off with promise. It looked like it might be decent. But I lost interest a few eposides in. I've tried to continue watching it when there's nothing better but it doesn't hold my interest. Episodes longer than they need to be. TheStarted off with promise. It looked like it might be decent. But I lost interest a few eposides in. I've tried to continue watching it when there's nothing better but it doesn't hold my interest. Episodes longer than they need to be. The story just jumps around the same ideas, never getting anywhere. The writers don't have a plan for the plot. They seem to just be writing episodes and seeing what happens. Putting that aside, it juist ends up feeling like a generic sci-fi suspense. It's so unmemorable that when I saw S2 pop up, I couldn't even remember what it was about. Watched S02E01 and there's nothing new here.

This is a completely pointless series that never needed to exist.

Starts off promising, but by a few episodes in it's crystal clear that the writers have no plan and are just making stuff up as they go.

Its creator is brand new, almost no writing/producing credits, so they're continuing to throw undeserving material at us like we're still in the Covid-era. Uh, no. Expand

The formula for these shows is usually, it looks like something crazy is going on and the show reveals it to you, eventually without even needing to think too hard. the days of 'lost' are over...

You sit there and everything unravels to an 'ok' finish.

Unfortunately FROM doesn't even manage that, nothing from the story, the acting stands out, it just meanders hopelessly, and you end up annoyed.

You are quite literally made to watch 4,5 episodes where nothing happens, nothing that makes you excited to watch it again.

The acting overall is just too mellow, everyone is subdued, in this horror scape, unless it's their turn to become this episodes protagonist. There's people screaming outside, everyone is just sat in silence inside. There's guts and blood up the walls, it's ok, let's just be calm. Get my drift?

All they had to do is just give you a little shock and awe every now and then. Convince you.
