This is one of the best takes I’ve heard about From. I love the show because it has created so many possibilities for conversation and imagination. It’s a refreshing alternative to the instant gratification of mindless shows we are used to watching.
I liked your point of view, specially comparing FROM with Severance. It was something that I was thinking about some days ago. FROM and SEVERANCE both are based on the same plan, but in different genre and narration. Both series are based on Psychological dream theories and both are talking about DENIAL people always are deep into their ego, doesn't want to accept their own faults, face with their own weakness and fix the problem, and its just because of that Ego thing stands in between. Remember of the Pilot Episode of FROM, when we see Kenny and Kristi for the first time, standing by the clinic and talking each other, Kenny has a golden dialogue in that scene I have mentioned in one of my review breakdowns on my channel: Denial is a part of our Family Tree now and this denial is from different aspects in a human's life: in FROM : all are fighting to keep their own dirty little secrets, and want to stay on their own old past beliefs. and you see there is a dialogue you always hear from all characters specially in this new season, season 3: Doubt is the dominant theme in the series right now in SEVERANCE: they all have came to that company by their own choice to forget about their outies when they are at work, and they have two different lives at the same time. we see Mark is crying in the car for his wife, and as he enters the company, everything changes and he cant remember of his pain anymore, instead, they have a party for their new comer colleague making fun at work. in both series, finally they find out of something else, there is a paradox and it must be solved. and for a creator the main matter is Catharsis, which is the most important fact of a movie or drama in connection with audiences which I think I have to make a review on that too. I enjoyed your review, very good and important fact you mentioned on.💯👍
Here is what we do know. Based on the Roku Channel it says its a SURVIVAL ODYSSEY. But the Question is who or what is pulling strings? Maybe its Donna, Maybe its Dr.Mabuse, Maybe its The Boy in White, Maybe it's Clara, Maybe it's the Crows, who knows.
I think that’s where they’ll differ. Lost just kept getting extended because it was successful. But From is a rather short story, so they’ll likely wrap things up sooner than later.
Fuck all this philosophical shit , I want answers cause my patience is getting thin and I am about to drop the show. There will be maximum 4 seasons to this show so it's reasonable to expect at least partial revelation of the main monster , how town was set up ? mechanism of the place etc in the 3rd season so we can have a proper battle between entity and villagers in s4 ( it's survival show for god sake). Writers have crammed so much clue , mystery material that I don't think they will be able to tie off everything in the series finale. they make meaningless subplots that go nowhere like boyde wanting to trap the monsters , they do not develop the side characters and just use this side characters and subplots as cheap placeholder between next shocker totally random mystery to keep pilling it up. I am fed up. I understand the theme of the show , it's unusual and gritty nature , I somewhat understand the purpose of the show and that makes it unique but come on , writers did not deliver third season with same quality as the first one. I not asking an explanation for every clue or detail from every frame but at least keep the show structured
Here goes a little mid-season analysis on my current perspective about the show. More to come.
Missed you! Always enjoyed your review because your perspective is always nuanced without regurgitating the show. 😊
Welcome back FromLand, miss you!

The closer you look, the less you see. ❤

Denial is a part of our Family Tree now
and this denial is from different aspects in a human's life:
in FROM : all are fighting to keep their own dirty little secrets, and want to stay on their own old past beliefs. and you see there is a dialogue you always hear from all characters specially in this new season, season 3:
Doubt is the dominant theme in the series right now
in SEVERANCE: they all have came to that company by their own choice to forget about their outies when they are at work, and they have two different lives at the same time. we see Mark is crying in the car for his wife, and as he enters the company, everything changes and he cant remember of his pain anymore, instead, they have a party for their new comer colleague making fun at work.

You spot on, always appreciating your perspective on the show
it's been so long. welcome back.
We miss your vids!
This is the best series I have ever seen. Hope it goes 10 seasons like LOST did. 👍👍👍👍
I hope this show don't end up like Lost😒
I think that’s where they’ll differ. Lost just kept getting extended because it was successful. But From is a rather short story, so they’ll likely wrap things up sooner than later.

Go watch walking dead, we don't care about your tears😅
Watch something else then. Complain after the series is done or if it gets canceled. Until then go cry somewhere
@@livelong6685 and we don't care if you don't care.
What's your point?
The show is starting to get to you. It's working.
@@luckyowl6432 EXACTLY what's his point lol
Well that was a waste of time
Exactly
Welcome back FromLand, miss you!
