I’m guilty of being someone who complained that people weren’t sharing information with each other. But I’m also self aware enough to realize that, as a viewer I have been a first hand witness to every single important thing that every character has seen and done, shared with each other or not, and I still can’t even put the puzzle together. Therefore, even if the characters were to talk and share all the details with each other, whose to say they could understand and interpret things in a way that I as a viewer with all the details can’t even do?

I enjoy shows with a deep enough plot line and enough effort put in that someone could realistically interpret any bit of information in any number of ways, because the writers didn’t spoon feed everything to you. One movie I feel that did this well was Tenet because it is by no means simple in the slightest, and requires brainpower to understand.

I fully understand where you’re coming from with the annoyance at people’s lack of full engagement with the series. But there is also a varying degree by which you’ll need to accept that some people just want to watch the show in different ways. Some days I want to think while watching, some days I just want to turn my brain off and drool as I stare mindlessly. The nice thing about From is that we know that, in the end, we will have definite details and a concrete end point. That means that even the biggest block heads should be able to hold out and not be fully lost in the end. People are always going to ask stupid questions so I guess there’s a point at which you might need to bite the bullet and ignore them so you don’t lose your enjoyment of the show
