I still think this is all on purpose, they don't have any idea of what they want or where they want to go, so they throw everything in there, will solve some of the issues, answer some questions but those answers will be contradictory, without continuity and make no sense.

I agree--so very convoluted--way too many plots. I’m trying to hang on, though, and keep watching. When Manifest went to (or will be on) Netflix, or Apple, or wherever the next season will be, I was so disappointed as I don’t subscribe to those services, but looking back on how convoluted it is, as well, I don’t think I will miss it. I could probably stop watching LaBrea and feel the same way. You don’t miss what you don’t have.
