The Terror
Haunting, suspenseful and based on true events, The Terror centers on a perilous Arctic voyage by the British Royal Navy. It’s an extreme tale of survival in wholly unforgiving landscape - with the crew's fears exacerbated by an unknown threat.

I’m just addressing my comments to season 1. It is fantastic such a fine piece of work. I would have liked to have seen more of Cirian Hines! (Spelling?) The actor that played Francis was amazing!
It’s so funny to see people criticize season 1 by saying “the brits would never take such a ridiculous risky route!” The Terror is based on an actual historical event. Sir John Franklin’s lost expedition is well-known and was a source of mystery for decades. The wrecks of Erebus and Terror were not found until 2014.
I only wanted to watch because the premise of "arctic monster" sounded fun. Coupled with the real life lead lead poisoning I honestly worried there would be "everybody hallucinating" twist. Instead I just wasted hours trying to distinguish identical hairy men in cliques being bitchy. The guy from one of my fave resident evil movies earned the only star with the help of the most annoying character getting eaten not too far in. "Spirit of adventure" my foot ya power hungry brat!
Both are amazing but definitely have rather different strengths and weaknesses.
season 2 has nothing to do with anything, they just used the name amd success of the Terror as a springboard
