Whoa, that last episode was fucking great! Right when i was about to give up on this show, they hit me with this. Thoughts /tv/? Show totally redeemed itself.
The whole season has been great tbqh
>>62808223
idk, just wasn't hitting home for me. I wouldn't say it was a garbage season up to this point, but it just didn't live up to expectations i guess.
>>62808160
>right when i was about to give up
literally what. this show has been on a incredible roll since the season premiere, no other show on air can touch it.
>Kevin scene
>Where is my mind starts playing
he ded?
>>62808160
>Right when i was about to give up on this show
>faith not restored with the always excellent Matt-focused episode
FUCKING PLEBS
>>62809261
OP here .. i will admit that was a great episode. The standout up until this point for sure.
>>62809261
>>62809317
You're just saying that because Doctor Who hangs dong at the end of it.
>>62809399
Nope, only those cakeboys at /who/ cares about that shit.
best show of the year by far, only one bad episode out of 7 (the laurie and tommy ep) but even that wasn't horrendous.
all the other episodes have been fantastic. it's like they've concentrated on what made the 1st season good (the garveys, nora, matt) whilst introducing a new compelling location and family (the murphys).
only thing i don't like is the new theme, it's absolutely shit compared to the majestic 1st season opening.
REMINDER THAT AIMEE IS THE EVIL MASTERMIND BEHIND EVERYTHING
>>62809558
AIMEE
DID NOTHING WRONG
>>62809221
Considering he's a name and they're totally getting another season, I doubt it. But you never know, they've been consistently flipping the script very well.
>>62809558
>meaty forehead
>>62809517
It's an effective shift, meta-commenting and foiling the tone and change in plot focus of the show.
>it is a Nora being literally perfect episode again
>>62809637
>He comes back as a ghost haunting the black kid
>Black kid becomes MC
>Starts banging Jill in front of her ghost-dad
>season 2 finale
>after credits scene
>Aimee unexpectedly returns
>she whispers "azazel" and then smirks
What do?
>>62809734
Maybe? Unless they pull some sort of odd parallel with that bird thing and michael buries him to come back? Ghost seems most likely, but to what end? And why did the old man shoot himself?
Any speculation is fairly pointless, this could go anywhere. I'm rapt with anticipation.
>>62809893
Well first of all it's Azrael, not Azazel...
>>62809558
>>62809893
a fucking chipmunk
>>62809651
>not afraid
>>62809558
she really did seem weird.. the way she was so chill and seemed to be "watching over" the dad.
aimee spin off series when?
>>62808292
this. S1 was so focused and well paced. S2 is garbage in comparisonbut still really good
>>62809963
he shot himself bc he's psychotic. this is the leftovers. that is the defacto answer to all unanswered questions
>>62809963
>>62811511
He shot himself because he finally atoned for what he had previously done (whatever it was that got him shot the first time), by killing the guy apparently responsible for his granddaughter's disappearance.Michael had just told him about the handprint result.
>>62811477
S2 is great tier. S1 is god tier. Haters of s1 are insta-pleb.
I just rewatched the pilot and there's a list of as-yet unanswered questions in this show...
The first time we see Laurie, there's a quick cut to some girls in school uniforms fighting on the ground. What is that about?
The people in the car during the flashback episode who ask Kevin if he's ready and then tell him they thought he was someone else... What was that about?
Tower man sending letters to Australia? Wut wuz dat bout?
Did the negro kill self to be the "guide" or just because he was miserable tho
>it's a john locke episode
>>62813221
>The first time we see Laurie, there's a quick cut to some girls in school uniforms fighting on the ground. What is that about?
it's obviously jill fighting one of the girls in the school
>>62813221
>Tower man sending letters to Australia? Wut wuz dat bout?
There's been a couple mentions of someone claiming to have risen from the dead in Australia. There was a news story about it in the Laurie-Tommy episode and later the publisher mentions him in his rant about different religions. I believe the name on the envelope matched up with the name in the news story that was cut off.
>>62813737
P A T R I C I A N
>>62813642
Except that it's not Jill at all. It's an asian girl and a black girl in catholic school girl outfits... Maybe it's Evie?
>>62814642
post webm faget
>>62814659
I don't know how
>coalburner
>stupid plot
I dropped the show after this episode and I'm happy that I did.
>>62814821
Gladys was the episode that made me positive this show was the best thing on TV in years.
so is this paranormal? i stopped watching after the first episode because my backlog of other shit to watch was huge.
is it like LOST where they're gonna drag out all the ~secrets~, or has the show revealed cool creepy shit yet?
>>62815026
not everyone is a kek
>>62815028
The show is basically like an extra member of the GR. It lingers on pain by refusing to cut away from violence or uncomfortableness. So far, thanks to how easy it is to project your own shit onto the vague shit on screen, it's hard to say Yay or Nay to either position.
Personally, I feel like the supernatural elements are rightfully laughed at by all but the preacher, and he basically exists to show that faith is just another slow suicide.
>>62815026
Ignore this kinda posting. You gotta accept that saying "i haye the leftovers" is just another way of saying "i'm a pleb, where my zombies and capeshit at?" and you'll be fine
>>62815028
Neither, a lot of shit isn't going to get answered or explained but some shit is, but most of both are just background ambiance.
>>62815159
i haye the leftover desu
they will never explain the bodies
>>62815287
That was a shipment of those realdoll things of the departed people are buying.
>>62815287
BUT THEY DID
>>62815287
Kill yourself
what's the deal with the GR? they say the want to remind people
but remind people of what? the departure? how is burning shit reminding people of the departure exactly
also
>tfw no more holy wayne
>>62815410
The GR believe the world ended and saw everyone attempting to move on as a clear avoidance of the obvious reality- most of us aren't good enough and have nothing of value to contribute. Specifically, everyone still here. Forcing the normies to confront the memories they're desperately avoiding made the townies angry. The townfolk started burning the GR- another great metaphor for choosing the ego over the truth. The general public would rather torch the truth than sit with it.
>>62815410
>but remind people of what? the departure?
Yes. Everyone wants to get on with their lives and the GR wants them to be bleak and nihilistic like them.
>how is burning shit reminding people of the departure exactly
They didn't burn anything, the townspeople burned down the GR compound and started slaughtering them after they were trolled with the mannequins of their departed loved ones. Classic pogrom.
Demon Azrael boss fight when?
>>62815529
>>62815534
i think you guys are right, but you're giving the GR too much credit. that is what they collectively try to accomplish as a goal, but individually they all just want to be NEETs with some false sense of purpose who broke down after the great departure
Connections to the show from May 1972 National Geographic:
>"Cairo, Troubled Capital Of The Arab World" - episode 1x8 is called Cairo, Kevin plays in the woods in Cairo, NY, news reports coming from unrest in Cairo in season 1, Patty talks about stealing a chalice from Cairo in 2x7, pic related
>"Living In A Japanese Village" - when Virgil blows his brains out, there is Japanese writing on the wall behind him spelling out Futagami-Jima, the village written about in the issue
>"The Spider That Lives Underwater" - Christine babbles on about a spider that lives underwater when shes delusional with labor/pregnancy pains
>"Have Excavations On The Island Of Thera Solved The Riddle Of The Minoans?" - article investigated the disappearance of a civilization, mirrored in Sudden Departure or season 2 intro with cave-in?
>"Yellowstone's Hundredth Birthday"- nothing yet
Why is Lindelof such a dork?
>>62816074
>there is Japanese writing on the wall
its chinese. It says "two", "god", and "island"
>>62816144
is it happening
>>62816184
Japanese and Chinese use the same characters. It checks out, zoom in on the map here: http://www.geographic.org/geographic_names/name.php?uni=-337566&fid=3237&c=japan

It's Lindelof, so you all know you're going to get trolled fucking hard. Why live?
>>62816331
i like lindelof when he's not writing blockbusters, and it helps that he doesn't write it alone. who even cares where it goes? if i don't like the ending or solution who gives a shit, it was a good ride and they brought their vision to the screen, that's all that counts.
>>62815529
>>62815745
I think the GR are the only people inbthe series who've reacted appropriately, actually. They literally don't speak because you'd only hear what you want to hear, anyway. In s1, they made sense to me. In s2, they seem to have lost the absurdist drive that made them so hard to disagree with.
>>62816144

>>62816144
I read about this shit during s1. Pretty awesome. I'd love to get a copy and get the cast to sign it.

An eruption by the Yellowstone volcano?
>>62817111
oh fuuuuuuu
Will we ever go to Australia?
>>62817185
Lindy had to tell HBO what s3 would be in order to get greenlit for s3... He also claims that The Leftovers has no show bible... Seems contradictory.
>>62817185
Dead Kevin's consciousness will be transmitted to the Australian outback to confront Patty in her Emu form.
>>62811621
he had been trying to get him to suicide since way before that you idiot
>>62813737
I thought it was wayne that went to perth or something
we are all in the midst of a master ruse
This show requires faith.
>>62808160
I'm thrilled with this second season, but last episode wasn't anything special? Sure, there was the initial shock, but the way the last scene played it made it clear that Kevin isn't going to die, for one.
And Virgil killed himself so he could be Kevin's guide. Why his death had to be more permanent it's another thing, I guess because of his sins? Michael knew what was going to happen and is suppossed to help Kevin.
>>62819078
The Kevin's guide theory is total bullshit. We're not gonna see any fucking afterlife or any kind of battle.
>>62817185
HAHA love it
Maybe the grandad killed himself because he knew that his son, would kill Kevin when he finds out the handprint was his? Thus saving his son's life. This is his atonement.
>>62819078
no way dude, this episode is by far the best one of the season. Other episodes besides the Matt one, did not live up to expectations.
>>62819230
I'm not saying we're goint to see that, never, nor that it's something real within the story. I'm saying that's what virgil believed. Remember the show is primarly about these people dealing with things they can't understand, their need for answers, and the ways they try to answer, not about actual afterlife fights or demons.

What happened to this guy?
>>62819518
>>62819518
do you have the actual issue? also fuck this show, this is too much
>>62819570
Didn't he bone out on Kevin while they had Patty hostage?
>>62819644
Yep
>>62819570
He wasn't there. He was Kevin's spiritual guide/hallucination before Patti replaced him.
>>62820529
You're wrong.
>>62820529
He was there, he had back and forth with Kevin at the city council meeting, no one asked who he was talking to. Cops took a statement from him after Gladys' death and Patty spoke to him before she died.
>>62820713
This. I'd like to see who KGsr is talking to... I also have a theory that Kevin is developing schizophrenia and that the entire show is about the tragedy of not being able to live in your own reality.
>>62820809
>Hasn't watched the most recent episode
>>62820922
kek
>>62820922
I have, though. What are you actually getting at? Nothing has yet disproven that Kevin is schizophrenic. If anything, Laurie's speech underlined it.
>>62821000
maybe u missed the ending
>>62821000
Virgil claiming that while he's "sleepwalking" he's actually completely conscious and speaking also makes schizophrenia a very likely option
>>62821028
Nope. Saw him OD.
