MGM+’s Biggest Horror Hit Is Officially Scaring Away Audiences
MGM+'s acclaimed horror series From is experiencing a significant disconnect between critical and audience reception. Whilst the show has maintained exceptional critical ratings (consistently above 95% on Rotten Tomatoes), viewer scores have declined sharply, suggesting audiences are losing interest despite professional praise. The series remains MGM+'s most popular show overall and still ranks second on its home platform, but it has begun disappearing from international streaming charts.
The ratings gap has widened considerably over the show's run. Season 1 saw critics and audiences relatively aligned (96% vs 87%), but by Season 4, the gap had grown dramatically to 96% critical acclaim against just 64% from viewers. Whilst shows typically experience declining engagement after new seasons air, the steepness of From's audience decline is unusual for such a popular series, suggesting viewers' investment in the storyline and characters has waned despite ongoing critical acclaim.
- Critical ratings remain above 95% whilst audience scores have collapsed to 64%
