So I finally got around to watching the Sci-fi channel show From. I'm currently 8 episodes in with 2 more to go in season 1. I'm finding that the mystery of what's happening really draws me in. In a nutshell, and this is established very early in the show, people arrive at a town and find that they are unable to leave. To make matters worse, as soon as darkness falls the monsters come out. The show likes to drop little bits of information for you every so often which only serves to deepen the mystery. There are also character flashbacks that give further story and hints. I've seen opinions that it's reminiscent of the show Lost, with people asking if From is the new Lost. Incidentally both shows star Harold Perrineau, although this is pure coincidence. I can certainly see what they mean though by drawing parallels between the two shows. I've definitely become hooked on wanting to know what is going on, but unlike Lost I hope we are actually going to get some answers! Haha
