Just finished season 3 and I am now all caught up to have discussions on /tv/ without being spoiled. What do you guys think about this?

>>212675168 (OP)
Although the premise has antecedents like The Fog, or Phantoms, I strongly suspect it drew inspiration from the Silent Hill games and thus stole their thunder. It's pretty wild they tried to make a Sh film series, when the format fits tv so much better.

>>212675285
Never played them

the autist guy's controlling everything. he manufactures reality. once they kill him with his metal lunchbox, the show ends.

>>212675168 (OP)
has anyone seen walt, MY SON

>>212675315
Explain his dad then

>>212675168 (OP)
Every single character in this show is such a massive fucking retard

Jade is at least consistently trying to do something though

1. It was good when it was just a sick game with the monsters. There's a solid tv show in that idea if you have the writing chops to make lots of different ways the monsters can get in and kill people without breaking the rules of the game. In a lot of ways From as a concept feels like Squidgame.

2. The counter-culture houses divide was cringe boomer television and I'm sure everyone is glad that they dropped it. Whoever cut that plotline deserves a raise because it was going nowhere good and I'd hate to think of what plot points were intended for the underage daughter ("hey your kid wants to stay in our commune, whoops looks like that mocha latter boy with a drug habit knocked her up :)"

3. The bugs are too OP so they break the slow-boiling tension and the monsters looked like ass in S3 when they showed people wearing rubber masks. Altogether there's too much magic woo stuff and bad character decision making now, it's just covering for bad writing and playing out the show for time. Same with the theme song.

4. By focusing on interpersonal drama you end up boring the audience who start to pick holes in the shows concept of things like food.

too many queers on and off screen, tired of the rainbow faggots soiling every tv show.

A general theme is that a person is trapped in the otherwise quaint resort town built around a large lake, but instead it's fog covered, they can't leave, and the town is filled with monsters. They're typically trying to find a missing daughter or wife or something.

I've always wanted a tv show, but From stole it's thunder. If you make a show now, people will go "that's like From!".

>>212675168 (OP)
>What do you guys think about this?

From MGM Diner is a weird name for a show. Is it any good?

We'll talk about it later, ok?

>>212675168 (OP)
I gotta go

>>212675168 (OP)
Entertaining but doesn't seem to be going anywhere. Also them taking an entire season just to address the radio call in a private one off mention was terrible.

>>212678489
What season will we discuss it?

>>212678434
>10 episodes per season
>only plot progress is in the finale
If all you need is one episode out of 10 to get the story: nothing fucking happens.

>>212675168 (OP)
I actually didn’t mind the pace of the show until that little fuck the boy in white showed up to stop Victor from cutting down the tree and explicitly refused to tell him anything because “they had to figure it out on their own” that’s retarded

>>212675168 (OP)
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT

>>212678552
after 10th seems reasonable

>>212678558
Julie also learned she could time travel earlier in the season, but I honestly wished they cut that because I cannot think of any show like this that was actually improved by introducing time travel

>>212678620
that wasnt time travel

>>212678706
She tossed the rope down to Boyd and tried to save her dad

>>212678558
I cannot fucking believe the entirety of season 3 centered around Fatima being pregnant with the most obvious demon of all time, no one doing anything to try to abort it and just feeding her rotten shit, and all just to restore one of the creatures that clearly aren’t the end all big bad to the story

When will Julie get pregnant with a demon child?

>>212675168 (OP)
You know, it's... look man, my opinion on this show isn't easy to explain okay? I don't have time for this. I'll talk to you later.

>>212675168 (OP)
I promise we'll talk about when I get back, okay?

I think about Julie every day of my life.

>>212679275
It really is silly how often they use this as an excuse in a small town they can't escape and they have basically nothing BUT time.
They have so little time they could have a daily 2 hour long town meeting and still would have trouble finding out how to fill their day out.

>>212679737
yeah, they shouldn't have given them free electricity and respawning livestock and produce
there's like 100+ people and maybe 6 of them actually have jobs to do, but nobody needs to do physical labor or really build anything like if it was a desert island or whatever

>>212679737

>there's like 100+ people and maybe 6 of them actually have jobs to do, but nobody needs to do physical labor or really build anything like if it was a desert island or whatever

So are we talking about the show or real life?

>>212679862
>there's like 100+ people and maybe 6 of them actually have jobs to do
I do wish they had more to do during the day, at the moment the day is too safe and it's only an inbetween for some contrivance during the night. Having to rely on foraging during the day, or having them desperate for fresh produce they can farm when a new car comes in, having them fortify the houses, there's so much they could do during the day.

>>212679983
both
the show logistically has not demonstrated how most of the people wouldn't be sitting around all day long doing nothing
There's people at the commune who plant and harvest vegetables, but that's not something you do every day, and then there's a normal working farm's amount of livestock which could be managed properly by 2/3 people
And then there's Boyd and the deputy guy who just kind of "patrol" the place
There's literally not enough things for people to do

>>212675168 (OP)
I have to go

>>212675474
listen, I can't talk about this right now
