The Best TV Show You’re Not Watching Right Now That’s Branded ‘The New’ Lost”, has just been extended.

If you’ve been putting off watching Bythe sci-fi horror drama from John Griffin, now is the time to jump on board: it has been announced that the show will return for a fourth season.

From has generated a cult fanbase, nicknamed the ‘FROMily’, since it debuted in the US in 2022 thanks to its high-profile plot featuring shades of Twin peaks, Lost And The walking dead.

The show, which airs in the US on MGM+, follows residents who are stuck in a small town and end up there every time they try to leave.

What adds the horror element to the series is the fact that these residents must lock themselves in the dark to protect themselves from creatures disguised as humans that emerge from the surrounding forest.

In the series, the characters, led by town sheriff Boyd (Harold Perrineau), try to find a way to survive the increasingly deadly and complex situations they find themselves in.

Given its high concept, some viewers felt weary about committing to the show, fearing it would be canceled before it ended. But fortunately, By isn’t on Netflix — and those concerns should go away now that the show will run for four seasons.

Thanks to feverish word of mouth, the series has even become MGM+’s biggest hits, indicating that the show isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

In addition to Perrineau, the show stars Oscar-nominated star Catalina Sandino Moreno, Eion Bailey, Scott McCord and Elizabeth Saunders, who plays the scene-stealing character Donna.

The series is directed by Jack Bender, who directed the main episodes of both Lost And Game of Thronesand produced by Jeff Pinkner.

The show’s first three seasons have received critical acclaim, each receiving a score of 96 percent, 92 percent, and 100 percent, respectively, on the aggregation site Rotten Tomatoes.

While fans celebrate the renewal of season four, there is a long wait for it to air. New episodes will be shot in Nova Scotia, Canada in 2025, with a release in 2026, giving newcomers plenty of time to catch up.

By is NOW available to stream in the UK.
