MGM+’s Hit Supernatural Thriller Is Officially Making a Streaming Comeback

For four seasons now, MGM+‘s biggest show has been one of the decade’s most celebrated horror shows. From has built its audience brick by brick, moving from an unknown horror thriller on a relatively unknown streaming service to a global sensation. It has achieved this rare feat by mastering the slow-burn mystery box, trapping viewers in a nightmarish, nameless American town where exit routes loop back on themselves, and nocturnal, flesh-eating monsters smile before they hunt. What started as a cult favorite has become a massive hit, drawing comparisons to Lost for its intricate lore, unrelenting tension, and agonizingly high stakes.

The horror series thrives on an agonizingly slow reveal of its universe’s rules, forcing the audience to piece together clues alongside the town’s desperate residents. Anchored by a standout, emotionally grounded performance from Harold Perrineau and an equally talented ensemble cast, the show grounds its supernatural terrors in something many people have thought about or felt at some point in their lives. It is one of those rare shows that hits all the right notes, from the tone to the horrors and the characters it explores.

However, the series has been experiencing a phenomenon like the one Lost did years ago. Viewers have grown increasingly tired of the lack of answers, and their reviews reflect that. While From has maintained critical acclaim, it has struggled to keep viewers equally entertained. Another telltale sign that everything hasn’t been okay in Fromville is the show’s sharp drop in streaming after the Season 4 finale. In the past, it held the number one spot on MGM+ for weeks after the finale aired. Now, the thriller is showing signs of life on streaming again, becoming the number one show on MGM+.

• You are not a target waiting to happen. You are someone who already suspects something is
  wrong, and acts on it.

• John Carpenter is producing a new Halloween film with Blumhouse and Miramax.
• The 1978 mask was a store-bought Captain Kirk mask, widened at the eyes and painted white.

‘From’ Is Achieving What It Was Meant To

This surge coincides with From‘s arrival on Netflix, where the first three seasons have also been taking over the streamer. Netflix licensed this batch of episodes for a limited time, a model that is becoming more common. The series is ranked fourth in the U.S. at the time of writing. Amazon’s decision to license the show to a rival streaming platform appears to be paying off: with only three seasons, viewers enamored with Boyd and his people may be seeking the fourth to stay up to date ahead of the final season. Plans to expand From‘s availability to more countries this month, so we should expect an even bigger surge across multiple platforms.

Stream the first three seasons of From on Netflix and all four on MGM+. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
