With an expanded 13-episode order and a fresh move to Thursday nights, the show has truly raised the bar for guest appearances. Fans can hear some haunting songs accompanying the entrance of "killers of the week" like Eric McCormack, Elizabeth Gillies, and even Kelsey Grammer. For Manifest fans, the reunion between Roxburgh and Josh Dallas is a massive highlight, with Dallas's chilling performance as the "Connecticut Cobbler" backed by some of the most memorable tunes of the season. While critical opinions on the core formula are varied, the refined dark tone and the evolution of the musical score have successfully elevated the emotional stakes for the entire cast.
