Thresholds

I found this weeks episode to be an improvement from the last couple, with things starting to pick up and some things coming around and tying together but it still falls short of the opening 4 episodes.

There was still too much melodrama and it's been ages since we had any shock and awe but at least a couple elements of the mystery are starting to unfold. I'm not surprised at all to see how things are turning out with Fatima and the other side stories, I think most agree we could see much of it coming a mile away and that it's really dragging out getting there.

I'm still holding out hope for the final two episodes to be real bangers like the first few were, but at this point they've squandered pretty much half a season on the "mid season slouch" which is very unfortunate.

7/10 - an improvement with a lot to do in the final 2.

I completely understand the frustration and hate directed at the last episode ... I do not for this one. While the first half was slow and I was bracing myself for another pointless filler episode, the second half delivered genuinely entertaining and informative scenes that set us up for a good two-part finale. All these people saying we didn't get answers ... what exactly were you expecting?! The nature of the show necessitates that we can't solve too many questions as we go.

This episode will stand on the quality of the next two, of course. While we do need to seriously progress the plot forward with the finales, this was a perfectly good episode 8/10. Again, I thought episode 7 was genuinely bad ... but I don't think anywhere near this many people would be hating on episode 8 if it weren't for episode 7.

Struggles with narrative coherence, leaning too heavily on last-minute twists that feel inconsistent with previous episodes. Victor's long-awaited lore dump, while intriguing, seems like a forced exposition drop rather than organic storytelling. The sudden focus shift to the Boy in White as a pivotal figure leaves Jasper's arc unresolved, adding complexity without real payoff. Additionally, Elgin's cryptic role and his unsettling influence over Fatima do little to clarify the overarching mystery, creating confusion rather than suspense. The time-travel twist with Julie, while bold, risks alienating viewers by introducing more questions without real answers.

With just two episodes left in Season 3, I'm not sure how they're going to pull off a satisfying conclusion. Episode 8 was packed with twists that felt more confusing than exciting, and I'm left with more questions than answers. The shift to focusing on the Boy in White over Jasper, and the confusing time-travel elements with Julie, seem like last-minute decisions that don't fit well with the established story.

It's obvious they're setting up for a fourth season, but this one feels like the weakest yet. I'm hoping the final episodes redeem it, but right now, I'm skeptical.

What am I watching at this point ? They stuff so much nonsensical and uninteresting stuff in there and completely abandon what was interesting in the beginning of that show. Fatima stabs someone. Drama. Old yelling woman comes in and then blah blah. Cut, next couple of people going blah blah. 95% of that show is an insult to my brain. I feel like we won't see a fourth season and it's probably for the better. Sad it is. Season one was already far from greatness but it delivered on the horror and was really scary at times. None of that is left. Only the same all the time. Nonsensical conflicts and pointless dialogues. I am tired of this. They brought some new characters in. What have we learned about them ? Absolutely nothing.

I loved "From" in season one. The second season and a few episodes into season three were also good. The entire series is based around mystery, it's what makes the series good but what is going on now? We are eight episodes in and nothing happens, seriously. It's like 90% drama filler now. It's not interesting, we want answers, we want more of the sci-fi/mystery/horror elements. It's better filler for 4 episodes now... is anything ever gonna be resolved?

The format right now is basically, follow one subplot, keep adding to that subplot, then it leads nowhere, then later come back to the subplot and make it lead nowhere again.
