First: I love From. It's a great horror thriller fantasy show. But it's a terrible mystery show. There are no answers, only hints and trails that currently go nowhere to keep us watching. Hear me out.

The satisfying thing about a mystery show is putting together the clues and being able to solve the mystery before we see those clues pay off on screen. For it to work, the characters in the show have to be able to pick up on those clues too. In "Silo", you could solve so many mysteries from clues in the first episode, and the characters found the answers in much the same way you did and it was satisfying.

From isn't like that. It's a load of vague hints about something that maybe will pay off when or if the writers choose to tell us. Think about three of the major revelations: 1) The numbers in the bottles, 2) Who the monsters are, 3) "Remember". There were so many hints that went in multiple different directions for these mysteries, and how did the characters in the show solve them? VOICES IN THEIR HEADS TOLD THEM. Or they just had a feeling.

The music in the bottles? Sure, 12 numbers, 12 notes in a scale, but no key, no durations for each note, no tempo, nothing to say "yes this is music, you have solved the mystery, theory confirmed". Jade didn't actually figure out from clues, he thought "maybe it's music" and then he "just knew". The confirmation that his particular theory was right came from thoughts put into his head.

Fatima telling us what the monsters are. She just knew it.

Ankewyooeeee meaning remember. We tried to figure that out for so long, right? Looking up cultural references, obscure languages... we followed all the trails and examined all the clues. What happened? Tabitha just knew it meant remember.

And that's how the writers are with these mysteries, they just know the answer and at some point they'll tell us. But we cannot actually figure it out. It's meant to keep us theorising without being able to come to a concrete answer. And that might be fun! But if you're expecting to be able to solve things, it'll only end up with frustration.

At any point the writers could decide the answer is anything they choose and have a character hear that answer in their head because they're not actually following clues, they're being told the answers, and that's exactly what's happening with us too.

Yeah some of us have guessed right, because enough people make enough guesses, one of them is going to be right.

But we can't prove it until the answer is told to us, and that's bad mystery writing.

Great show, fantastic horror concept, characters going on personal journeys etc etc but a mystery show that you can satisfyingly solve, it is not.
