Season 3 of FROM was a disappointment
I just finished watching the third season, and after three entire seasons, we’ve learned absolutely nothing! For me, the first season was the best. The second season started to lose momentum, becoming less engaging because there was no real progress in solving the mystery. However, it still maintained good action sequences. The third season, on the other hand, was incredibly dull! The characters spent most of their time talking excessively, slowly, and with long pauses.
There was a lack of significant developments or shocking moments involving the monsters. We barely saw the creatures, and the mysterious elements only kept piling up without resolution. The only two things we learned were:
- Tabitha escaped at the end of season two thanks to the boy in white, not because of the lighthouse.
- The monsters were once humans who sacrificed their children in exchange for immortality.
So far, we’ve received no answers to crucial questions such as:
- What is this place?
- How and why were these people transformed into monsters?
- How did Fatima give birth to the creature we know as the “Smiley Creature”?
- What exactly happened in the final scene of season three? Was Jim dreaming or hallucinating when Julie suddenly appeared out of nowhere, with a different hairstyle, warning him that the town wasn’t safe? What happened next when the monster appeared in broad daylight and attacked him?
- The monster attacking Jim claimed it had warned him. Was it the same entity that pretended to be his dead son and made those phone calls? That scene left me utterly confused.
- What did Julie mean when she said something was happening? Did all the monsters suddenly appear during the day?
- What is the female creature that Elgin kept seeing?
- What is the meaning behind Jim’s mysterious phone calls?
- Do the monsters feed on human blood?
- What is the connection between Jade, the Civil War Soldiers he saw, and the injured man who tried to drown him?
- Why didn’t the boy in white try to help anyone during season three?
(And there are likely more questions I’ve forgotten to mention!)
Conclusion:
The third season could have been much more dynamic and filled with progress. However, it seems that, for some reason, the director doesn’t want to provide any significant advancements in the story, despite the fact that everyone is eager for answers.
