The Leftovers

RicoLoveDinero shared a tip "Omg I can't tell y'all how much I love this show. Probably one of the most underated shows you will find.....trust me it's a must watch"

b_m_v_h shared a tip "I wanted to like this so bad but I couldn’t even get through the second episode. This show is just depressing AF. First off, whoever the writers are they’re really into shooting dogs, and I’m just not good with that. It pretty much stays that depressing though the rest of it. Good plot, horrible execution."

psychobabblellc shared a tip "A profoundly beautiful meditation on grief and loss. Challenging and unforgettable! https://psychobabblellc.com/what-the-leftovers-can-teach-us-about-grief/"

jax89 shared a tip "The second season is really where it picks up and becomes a full fledged masterpiece but I would just power through the first season if you really hate it, the second half of season 1 focuses way more on Carrie Coon’s character and she’s incredible so it really helped for me. Plus seasons 2&3 have more distinguished directors at the helm and it’s really a game changer"

jax89 shared a tip "Like the have Carl Franklin and Mimi Leder as mainstays in the last two seasons as directors and they’re tv legends so it’s really incredible where they take the material also the final two seasons are not based on the book and go wild in the best way"

lizz_marchant shared a tip "SO SO GOOD. A hidden gem that you won’t want to miss! I literally couldn’t peel my eyes from the screen the entire show, for all 3 seasons.. and then was super upset when it was over because I just wanted it to keep going!! I was so sucked in! It’s so deep & intense but has the supernatural factors obviously and it’s just so good in so many ways, 10 out of 10."

tyler_sweet_3056 shared a tip "It’s the most ‘Twin Peaks” since Twin Peaks. First season is a little rough but it really comes into its own in the second season. Season 2 and 3 each reinvent themself in different interesting ways from the last. Great stuff.. truly original TV"

bryan_save shared a tip "Hands down the greatest show I have ever watched. There is so much depth, creativity, and wonder. It really does take you for a ride. It was perfect."

kiki_menon shared a tip "Fascinating ... does not look at the 'why' or 'how', but focuses on the rest of the population and how they deal and cope with the seemingly random disappearances (every explanation seems to come to a dead end, so the people left behind have to find the truths that they can live with). I think the series gets a bit weaker/little bizarre as the seasons pass by, but it's still a gripping psychological drama."

cliff_caporale shared a tip "This is my #1 favourite series of all time. Do far. It is not about the actual supernatural incident or solving it, but how people deal with massive loss, when no one can comfort you."

bradley_steffensen shared a tip "Had to stop watching after the third episode...church guy (guess he's a reverend ) wins 180 000 in a casino some low lif and his trashy wife are watching. He walks out with this much needed money ... no bouncers or escorts... and SUPRISE POS guy steals his cash (oh he left his car door open just so it wouldn't complicate things) I turned it off and won't watch another episode. Writers are that lazy. He's in America literally the Country of Guns and trash ... is this believable on any level??"

kayla_bartlett_9206 shared a tip "Easily one of the best shows of all time. Intriguing, thought provoking. Almost everything from the first to third season was completely unexpected"

suze_dickinson shared a tip "Unique slow burn, with patience and curiosity, could be the best show you’ve ever seen! I loved the exploration of our true reason for living- Love and Connection. This show leaves you weirdly empty yet wonderfully full and forever haunted by the characters that will steal your heart and find a place in your soul."

kylie_cameron shared a tip "This is my new favourite show. I already want to watch it over again, and I just finished. It’s absolutely brilliant! Watch the Leftovers if you’re a fan of LOST. You won’t be disappointed!"

stacee_nivera shared a tip "Such a great storyline. First, the mystery of the sudden departure, the different (and sometimes strange) ways people deal with loss and a love story... And, to my surprise, a satisfying ending."

sarah_kennedy_7017 shared a tip "This show has one of the most satisfying endings I’ve ever seen. It’s a slow burning show and I can’t recommend it to most people but if you like weirdness, this is an excellent show. Amazing acting and story."

goldglitter_girl shared a tip "One of the best shows on HBO ever! I can’t explain it but I loved it. Justin T was awesome. It really pulled you in. I wish it would have gone longer but so hard to write a story that good and keep it going at that level. Give it a watch if you are even remotely thinking about it."

jamby shared a tip "This show was quite the experience given the circumstances we're living on now. As a big suck for cults, apocolypses, and tragedy, I found it a compelling watch that kept me busy. That said, the romance arcs were disappointing, along with the decision to end the series with such a weak point. There is no doubt the show is about love and what we will do for it. But there were so many storylines answered with a single line of dialogue in the end that sidelined the impact of the show overall."

michele_mccool shared a tip "This show was so well done. Why did it end so suddenly. Felt like each season got better and better, then it just ended when it got really good. I was so excited to see it when each season came out, then nothing ☹️"

m._leondard shared a tip "Shallow! The first season was great. The rest of the show had no idea where to take it's themes and characters and so dissolved into a fake deep mess of fake twists. Avoidance is not the same as open ended writing. The story makes no attempt to truly explore grief or existentialism beyond knee-jerk emotional outbursts. This was lazy writing with abandoned arcs and despicable character logic. I deeply regret the time I wasted hoping this show would fulfill the potential depth of its first season."

benjamminash shared a tip "Beautifully written, acted, and directed show about dealing with the unknown and how to express grief. It’s got hints of LOST and David Lynch without going too avant garde."

ashley_merk shared a tip "Interesting show about how people lose their minds when unexplainable events happen. Some try and stay normal, some form cults, others are faced with pain and healing. Millions of people disappear into thin air but a lot of those people are really bad people, so if it can’t be the rapture then what is it?"

sara_schuh shared a tip "So original, kept me intrigued throughout. Easily in my top 10 favorite shows of all time and I’ve watched a lot of excellent shows. Very slow and depressing to start but if you stick it out, the emotional payoff is well worth it."

faith_de_leon shared a tip "Love this show... its hard to summarize and it leaves some unanswered questions, but I have watched it over and over again because its that good"

morgan_armstrong_195 shared a tip "I'm a real big fan of Black Mirror and the original Twilight Zone. Loved the Handmaids Tale also. Upload on Prime was good for a little comic relief as well as Resident Alien on SyFy."

noelle_barnes_7640 shared a tip "Just bonkers good. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen, bar none. The acting is extraordinary, the writing and direction are superb. It is one hell of a ride from start to finish. An absolute marvel."

bryan_oldham shared a tip "Haunting, beautiful, thought-provoking. Extremely well written, and the acting is superb. Been a long time since a show stuck with me like this one."
