What happens

Them is an American horror anthology television series created by Little Marvin and executive produced by Lena Waithe. The series stars an ensemble cast, which consists of Deborah Ayorinde, Ashley Thomas, Alison Pill, and Ryan Kwanten in the first season, and Pam Grier, Luke James, Joshua J. Williams and Jeremy Bobb in the second season, with Ayorinde returning in a new lead role. The first season, entitled Them: Covenant, premiered on Amazon Prime Video on April 9, 2021, and the second season, Them: The Scare, premiered on April 25, 2024. The first season polarized critics and audience. Criticism was generally for the handling of the series' subject matter, which some called "exploitative" and "unnecessarily graphic", while Ayorinde and Thomas received praise for their performances.
