Now that the Manifest series has come to an end with the recent premiere of Season 4 Part 2 on Netflix, I have decided to give this series a watch to see what all the hype is about. After watching Manifest Season 1, I have mixed hopes of continuing to watch this series any further. However, if you are interested in this series, giving this post a read might be a good idea. Manifest Season 1 Summary: A Flight To The Future Manifest Season 1 starts off with many passengers boarding Flight 828 - a flight from Jamaica to New York. This includes protagonists Michaela Stone and Be Stone, who are siblings. Ben’s son Cal Stone is also aboard the flight. However, the flight goes through a period of turbulence as it enters a formation of dark clouds. As they exit from the cloud and land in New York, all the passengers are in for the surprise of their life. The surprise - the flight has landed five years into the future. All the passengers of the flight were marked dead. The story of Manifest Season 1 deals with how relationships change over the passage of time due to the disappearance of people. It also shows the struggles of Flight 8258 passengers as they try to reconcile with their family members and be living members of society - again. However, Manifest also has a supernatural edge to it. All the passengers aboard Flight 8258 receive Callings - Visions of things yet to come. What could these Callings mean?

After Season 1, Manifest Season 2 premiered on 6th January 2020. Manifest Season 3 premiered on 10th June 2021. Soon, the show got canceled by NBC and was soon picked up by Netflix, who released Manifest Season 4. Season 4 was divided into two parts. Part 1 premiered on 4th November, while Part 2 premiered on 2nd June 2023. Manifest Season 4 concluded the series, making Manifest Season 5 an impossibility so far. Here is the Manifest Season 1 trailer that you can watch before watching this series: Where To Watch Manifest Season 1? If you wish to know how to watch Manifest Season 1, you can watch all its episodes on Netflix. It’s also available on Amazon Prime Video as well. Final Verdict: Is The Manifest Series Worth Watching? After watching Manifest Season 1, I would say that it's an average season at best. While the story starts off well with the mysterious disappearance of Flight 828 and its reemerging into five years into the future, it soon gets overshadowed by the family drama of all its passengers. The hunt for finding out the cause of the disappearance of Flight 8258 soon gets sidestepped in favor of showing us how the passengers get themselves accepted back into society. This makes the season and its core mystery lose steam after the first two episodes, after which the show becomes a typical sub-par soap opera. I hope Manifest Season 2 gets its footing back on track and actually tries to find the main catalyst of the story - the reason behind the disappearance of Flight 828.
