The Leftovers (2014)
Poster for The Leftovers
This show scratched an itch I never even knew I had. So profound and deeply sincere with everything it does. It had a vision and it sacrificed mass appeal to accomplish that vision in its purest state. This show is NOT for everybody, but there is a reason the people it is for speak so highly of it. That’s because, simply put, it’s fucking beautiful. I’ve been sat here for almost an hour writing variation after variation of essays on why this is good, but I can never find the right words. It has truly left me speechless. I’m not trying to cop out of a long review, I wish I could write one, but this show just can’t be described, it needs to experienced. No words yet created do justice to the magnificence Damon Lindelof created here, it’s so achingly good that I almost want to scream. Please, take that jump and give this show a chance, it’s an experience worth taking risks for. If you don’t like it, you don’t like it, but if you manage to connect to the world and characters… it might hit you like no other show ever has. 𝐒𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐊𝐄𝐃 1.) Season 2 (10/10) 2.)
