The Leftovers

The Leftovers

What if your life was upended in an instant? What if your spouse or your child disappeared right in front of your eyes? Was it the Rapture or something even more difficult to explain? How would you rebuild your life in the wake of such a devastating event? These are the questions confronting the bewildered citizens of Mapleton, a formerly comfortable suburban community that lost over a hundred people in the Sudden Departure.

Kevin Garvey, the new mayor, wants to move forward, to bring a sense of renewed hope and purpose to his traumatized neighbors, even as his own family disintegrates.

His wife, Laurie, has left him to enlist in the Guilty Remnant, a homegrown cult whose members take a vow of silence but haunt the town's streets as "living reminders" of God's judgment. His son, Tom, is gone, too, dropping out of college to follow a crooked "prophet" who calls himself Holy Wayne. Only his teenaged daughter, Jill, remains, and she's definitely not the sweet "A" student she used to be.

possibly my favorite show ever.

First 3-4 episodes, I was thinking, "What the hell is this?! Why's this so highly rated?!"

About half way, it got steadily better and better. Still loads I don't understand, but over all, a very interesting, gripping and confusing first Season.

This show is really good :) If you can handle a bit of pretentiousness then you'll really like it, like me! The nonsense is balanced out by the intrigue and characters.

This is just the usual lindelofs illogical crap, i don't need another lost, a show where we got answers to maybe 25% of the countless questions raised. I'm so done with this.

Every show introducing a bunch of characters needs some time to set the pace. This show gets better every episode. The first two episodes where good, but I wasn't really sure where it is heading, but then it gets denser, darker and weirder... I really enjoy watching it and I'm eager to find out where this is going. Great watch!
