From Season 4 Rotten Tomatoes Score Is In — See How It Stacks Up

If you haven’t checked out 'From' yet—yeah, I know, another spooky mystery series—it’s probably not your fault. The show’s been flying under the radar since day one, thanks in part to living exclusively on MGM+, which, let’s be real, isn’t exactly the streaming service most people have bookmarked. But let’s talk about what actually makes this weird little show tick, and why it keeps racking up fans (and critical love) season after season.

Stranded Horror, Seasoned Cast

At its core, 'From' is a horror series about a town stuck in some kind of supernatural, inescapable loop. Wander in? Congrats, you’re now a local and you can’t leave—ever. At night, monsters crawl out of the woods and start picking off the characters one by one. Think of it as a mix between Lost and The Mist, with a similar vibe: a tight cast, high stakes, and new deaths every week.

The show kicked off in 2022, and we’re now into season four. There’s plenty of mystery and more than enough gruesome monster action to keep horror fans entertained. Harold Perrineau (Lost, Oz) leads the cast as Boyd Stevens, the town’s reluctant leader, who’s stuck dealing with all the weirdness while trying to get everyone out alive (spoiler: not going great).

Four Seasons In, Critics Are Hooked

Here’s where it gets interesting: the fourth season just started, and suddenly 'From' is getting some real love from critics. We’re talking a straight-up 100% Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes. Sure, only 16 critics have weighed in so far, but 16 for 16 is nothing to sneeze at in this streaming era.

And with this kind of show—where the big unanswered questions are half the point—you’re probably wondering if they’re ever going to get to any answers. Fans (and honestly, a bunch of critics) have dinged Lost and From before for dragging out mysteries way past their expiration date. There’s a direct connection here, too: Jack Bender, a longtime director on Lost, is also a regular behind the camera on From. So, yeah, comparisons are pretty fair.

The good news, at least according to critics? Season 4 isn’t stalling—it’s making progress. The narrative is apparently picking up momentum, with some payoffs to the town’s mysteries and a sense that a real end is finally in sight.

'It already seems like things are coming to a head.'

Where It’s Heading—and Why It Matters

If you’re someone who refuses to start a show unless you know it’s got an endgame, here’s the kicker: Season 5 will be the last season. So, you’re not signing up for an endless ride with no resolution—something that a lot of viewers bounced off of with other “mystery box” thrillers.

Bottom line: 'From' keeps being ridiculously good, even if nobody seems to notice except critics and the die-hard horror crowd.

Besides, the end is in sight, and apparently, it’s shaping up to be worth the wait.
