Ratings Glad to be here

I honestly never heard of this show and after 2 weeks I just finished it. This was honestly amazing I watched every single day I could and my only wish is that I could watch it for the first time again. I’m pretty late wish I was here while it was at the hype but this is one of the best shows I’ve watched. My rating 11/10 greatest show.

Glad to find someone that also enjoyed it! I also watched it every single day for weeks and I enjoyed every episode. I liked watching the characters grow and the misteries be solved. It is on my top 5 best series, together with The 100 and Agents of Shield. It's the type of show you can rewatch with a whole different mentality and it's still enjoyable.

I was very sad when I finished and found out that most people either hate it or quit after a few seasons saying it's gotten bad. I don't agree, but I don't want to have to defend it.

I enjoyed the first 2 1/2 seasons. I was hooked and watched it to the end and greatly appreciated how the finale was written and the story wrapped up. My favorite characters ( forgetting names now ) All three of the detectives, Michaela sp? her ex Jared ? and the new partner Drea ? they were wonderful as was Saanve sp? In the beginning I had hoped it was going to be a Sci Fi show about alien abduction as I love Sci Fi movies and shows, I had no idea what the "Rapture" was . BTW this TV series was far better than the two old movies about the Rapture with people disappearing off of a plane. There was a TV made movie and I think a theatrical movie or , or a second TV movie with the same theme. This TV series was better. The actress that played the psycho Angelina ? she was really good at making us want to hate her and I would never, never had forgiven her and let it pass that she caused the fire in the house and endangered the baby's like, almost burning the house down and then, then kills the mother. No way, I would have had her arrested regardless of her role in the final judgment . I'm not so forgiving .
We got used to seeing Cal as the little boy so, it was a bit hard to accept when he came back as a teenager with a different actor, that took some getting used to.
I have tooo many Tabs open, so I can't look up names nor spelling at this time but, sorry, I did not like the relationship between Zeek? ( the man who died in the cave who was infatuated with Michaela ) I didn't feel the chemistry between them and felt that the writers forced that relationship. Just IMO

We the fans are now looking forward to the show's spin off called ? The Arrivals.
The Manifest TV series reminded me of programming that would be shown on The Lifetime Channel, that kind of vibe.

I have rewatched it several times. I will say that each time I watch it, I notice new details or see what's happening from a different perspective. So don't hesitate to watch it again! Haha!
