I've enjoyed it so far. I am really hoping they don't pull a "Lost" because the show has a lot of potential. The variations of piano music played throughout the episode is extremely well done. Liv Tyler is surprisingly good as well.

Great series. One of the few in the last couple of years. I have the feeling that the quality of tv shows has been declining for some years. And seeing one of the excellent ones ending is pretty sad.
I loved its mood and spiritual creativity from the beginning and it got better from season to season. Honestly I didn't expect it to come to such a great ending but I was pleasantly surprised and loved the last couple of episodes. I loved the characters and felt with them.
The fact that there are a many negative comments here is a sign of quality with a show like that. It's not for everyone. But if you're brave enough to let the show's confusion and themes of uncertainty into your brain you'll be rewarded.

Yup a bit messy even for a pilot.
I'll give a go one or two episodes more

I watched the first season when it aired, and thought it was a muddled mess, but based on the recommendation of friends I gave it another try, and I'm so glad I did. Season 2 the show really starts to find its footing, and pace. Another commenter mentioned the "trendy ending that doesn't answer any questions"; to that I have to say what more questions could you possibly want answered? I thought the "ending was BRILLIANT".
The entire show is about the extremes that humans will go to assign meaning to random events. There is no providence, there is no master plan, there is no destiny, and if you believe otherwise, then yes, you WILL be disappointed in this series. In the end this show is about the human mind and how it is so very fragile and so fallible; yet it shapes the world around us, and more importantly shapes those around us. We must be careful with sharing our beliefs, because they are contagious, yet in the end my amount to nothing.

One of the best shows I've ever seen! It's completely different from everything else I've watched, hard to describe. You might need to give it some time to get into it. Especially season 2 and 3 are outstanding. And the soundtrack, amazing!

If it wasn't the best show I have ever watched.

It's definitely the best Tv Show I have ever seen !! It's fascinating bu also confused, many feelings about this Tv Show. The actors are really great, they are really convincing. Thank you HBO, Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrotta !!!

À SLAP !! Very good show !

The. Best. Show. Ever. Made.

One of the greatest shows ever made. It's a shame that people need to be spoonfed subtext and themes to understand the point of the show.

loading replies

Best show and best soundtrack ever.

loading replies

What a trash series! I don't believe I just watched three entire seasons, just to finish without a decent explanation! A completely lost of time.

loading replies

Heartbreaking, brilliantly acted, directed, scored and written show about loss and living.

loading replies

The second series is top top quality. I really do not understand all the negative comments about this show, the acting is really good, the story interesting, the narrative compelling, I can't find a negative. It should be a criminal offence if HBO do not make at least one more series, to wrap it up.

loading replies

i'm curious why this is so highly rated...? i watched it a few years ago and was like "whatever, i guess it's got some emotion-inducing stuff." but then i rewatched and felt myself cringing at the fact that i wasn't cringing the first time i watched this lol. maybe max richter's original compositions for the show distracted me (though they were way overused)

i'm especially confused as to why the episode "international assassin" is the highest rated episode of the series on IMDB?? that's the episode that gave me the most eyerolls for non-religious related reasons lmao, even my first watch through

i've watched a lot of tv, and i enjoy most of it because i can find genuine enjoyment out of "bad tv" too. but this just gave me too much second-hand embarrassment. i mean, the promo posters alone..

i do see where some people might get enjoyment from watching the show, so no judgement or whatever

loading replies

I just started season 3. Was expecting a turn for the better. Had suspicions as early as season 2 that this was going to be a crappy religious sham story. This better not going to be some Christian savior BS show. We will have judgement day at the end of the show. 7 episodes to go.

loading replies

Seriously what did I just watch.. can't believe people are recommending it to those who liked Lost.
The only thing good about this was the actors, they did an amazing job, especially the protagonist.
The premise is interesting but it only manages to keep you engaged for the first episode, other than that the plot is all over the place, just a bunch of crazy people doing crazy things, and the pacing is terrible.

loading replies

This must be one of the most intense and intriguing series I have ever watched. Season 1 punches you in the face emotionally with the portrayal of the loses that the 98% leftovers feel in the wake of the departed. And the remaining two seasons tells a very intriguing story that is nicely wrapped up in season 3. There are many unanswered questions but that is true of many great novels and this is what The Leftovers is most easily compared to. The acting is wonderful with Justin Theroux and Carrie Coon easily taking the prize for the most compelling acting. Its just a completely wonderful series.

Very Bad Beginning,
mediocre middle,

the worst ending i have ever seen - skipped through half the finale...

Save your time and watch something else...

loading replies

overrated show and colossal waste of time. Folks say serial finale was the best, but I'd say it was the worst ever. Even worst than infamous Lost..

loading replies

i like the story and the twists but the soundtracks are the worst

loading replies

This show was fun to watch. I sometimes think of watching it again.

loading replies

An all-timer show, tears are still streaming down my face as I type this out. Never before has a TV show forced me to confront the concept of faith as much as this. Absolutely amazing stuff here.

loading replies

I understood nothing of this show, I like some of the conversations, I do not agree with the assumption that no way can get better and even if the show comes down on religious extremism they end up doing the opposite in the third season.

Considering that the show starts with the trope of "a part of the population goes missing" and it develops from there, I can't really say after watching all 3 seasons that I don't know how they go missing, why they go missing and even if they are dead. The third season was the weirder of them all to me. And besides the ending, all characters end up a fuck up and by that I mean they don't get better at all.

The conversations and talks about grief got me interested, the character development is nice, and acting is really good. Especially Matt who made such a poor job with as a Doctor Who protagonist and the main villain of Thor 2.

And the religious aspect of the show got really confusing because I can't say if it is all real, if they are hallucinating it all or that whatever.

Huge let down, looked a really good series but it's far from it.

Man I'm so chilled for this coming back.

Like almost every good, deep and thoughtful show it takes time and patience to have an emotional impect.

You people have no attention span.

This is a show that feels like a fever dream.

loading replies

The Leftovers is one of HBO's best works from its wonderful introduction (first season) to the exploration of the loss and humanity of its characters, a series that takes risks with a different proposal. Unclassifiable and undervalued.

Should of been a blockbuster series but it's just a huge blockbuster flop.

I just finished season one of three, and have been told season 2 is better yet. This story, from the creators of LOST, is a slow burn, so commit to the long haul. Before I began watching, I read the viewers feedback comments, and the best advice was, forget about what happened, or the why or how of it. Those who wanted those questions answered hated the series, those who invested in the story curve of the characters, and how they chose to repond, discover the appeal of the series, and gave it rave reviews. I settled in to giving it an 8.5 out of 10, with a 10 for the penultimate episode (1.9) and a 9.5 for the season finale. What I enjoyed was the performances. This has a stellar cast, with some promising newcomers. Carrie Coon was a new name to me, but attracked awards for her work in the series.

Until the episode "International Assassin" I hadn't decided where to sit with this show. It was certainly "different" in a not annoying or tacky way, but I felt the inspiration perhaps too on the nose. And here I find my empty derivative floosy opinion spiraling away on the quiet poignant poise of putting something so sweetly on your nose.

Underrated series. This is just amazing. Season 2 is a blast!

To those on the fence, and those who have given up hope. This show has many lessons for you. It takes patience, but pays in dividends.

This show has the best soundtrack of any show I've ever watched, whoever is in charge of selecting music for the episodes needs a huge raise! Every single episode has at least one great song (not including either season 1 or 2's themes, both fantastic) per episode!

Probably one of the best shows I have ever watched. And can't believe I took this long to watch it

Very annoying color grading. The layer of mystery in plot is sometimes too much and it becomes cringy christian-show like. Anyway it's a very interesing show. Worth watching, I think

There are many fine actors in this show which was the reason we started watching it. But it is so dismal. Waiting for something, anything, to happen and nothing does. Will watch the final episode this week and that might be the last for us.

Who don't knows what will be left behind will never get true plot of the show. It's not about what is said, it's about it isn't. The whole world is the Remnant (or leftovers in a dog bag), only on the Guilt Remnant the caos make sense.

loading replies

Wow, this show is just the pits

loading replies

Considering the high ratings of some reviewers - I persisted.

But a messy plot (albeit with strong sub-stories) combined with the trendy ending that doesn't answer any questions means I won't be investing more time in this series. Disappointing.

loading replies

I slogged through the first season, but couldn’t go farther, being constantly triggered by the apparent inability of the writers to have a line without “f_____”

loading replies

Fuck yes, HBO renewed The Leftovers for a 2nd season!

loading replies

The writing and performances were top notch. The choice of songs were brilliant as well. The score by Max Richter is terrific which is a huge plus. The show is about how the characters are dealing with the unexplainable tragedy rather than how it happened or why. So if you're interested only in how or why, then you'll be disappointed or even frustrated. If you want a character driven show and watch how these people are doing, you'll love this. Easily the best new drama of this year IMO. So glad it's coming back next year.

I found the pilot icky enough to decide not to watch any more.

Suffered through all 3 seasons - should've given up after the 2nd or 3rd episode in season 1. A part of my life I'll never get back!

Such a poorly paced show which seems pointless. I doubt the world would ever react that way, and those GR guys would get punched a whole lot more!!!

Another waste of time. The storyline was all over the place making it difficult to follow. Truth be told, I had my doubts, and I should have followed them.
