Honestly, in the final scene before Kevin walks into his house, there's a huge earthquake. I was really worried for a second that it was going to parallel the opening scene of the season and there would be a giant boulder on his house or it was going to have fallen into a giant rupture in the earth.

Now that the season is over, what do you guys think of that opening scene?

I'll understand if it gets cancelled, in fact I won't even be disappointed. How can they keep it so fucking good in a third season? I'll just listen to the Max Richter soundtrack and drink for the next eight months, maybe something wonderful will happen...

>We actually saw an uptick in the ratings for episode 9, which I was surprised by, considering we were up against "The Walking Dead" mid-season finale and an incredible football game that I was watching and rooting for the Broncos. It would be great if that trajectory continued. It would probably be bad if we lost viewership from episode 9 to the finale. Any case that can be made for a show that is picking up momentum would be huge. But the reality is, I'm talking to HBO. We're going to sit down before the holidays and get a sense of where everybody's head is at. I certainly want to make more episodes of "The Leftovers." That's kind of how things sit.

>Why was the dog not given away in the beginning of the season and or not just fucking forgotten about? They could have easily said "Oh no animals in Jarden, sorry" and could have dropped the whole getting shot bit somewhere else.
>Why did she steal the baby and then immediately drop it?

JUST levels: FUCK
But overall I was content with it.
>>
Why is this show so obsessed with the church anyway?

Everybody in the real world, the Christians, atheists, and Muslims, are watching news channels because of the real religious conflict.

But no HBO thinks people want to watch another Biblical allegory.

I am okay with religious issues. But I hate how every show that try to touch these issues always withdraw into a self reflection mode of re telling Old Testament stories

>>Why did she steal the baby and then immediately drop it?
bitch was insane she didn't really want the baby.
>>
>>63398217
>Leftovers fans will defend every single one of these points
>>
>>63398246
Because the whole series is predicated on an event similar to one of the most recognizable parts of religious dogma, and since science so far in the series hasn't been able to illuminate what occurred, it becomes a question of faith and personal belief.

I agree, with how good International Assassian was, while I was laughing when Kevin woke up in the tub again, there was no way that the same impact would be achieved in the time allotted.

Seemed cheap and fast getting him back to life so quickly.

But, maybe, that's just "the afterlife" rolling it's eyes at Kevin for being there again and saying "goddamn fine fuck you go back just sing and be sad with your eyebrows fuck"

I dunno.
>>

>why did tom bail on meg and the GR?

He's been looking for some kind of meaning for literally the entire series, and he found it in his senpai.

You still miss my points.

So something happened to the World right? People disappeared in China, Europe, Mexico ...Buddhists, Catholics, Muslims ...

But no. You only get to see how American whites and American blacks reacting to it. In a Christian church.

You don't want to deal with science? Okay. But how is that every time you talk about "the nations" you are talking about USA and how are "the religions" always the puritans?

Puritan issues are the least problematic issues in this moment of history now.

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?

I think I'm one of the few casual fans of this show. It seems like it gets either blown 95% of the time by people commenting on it, while the other 5% hates it outright. I enjoy pieces of the show, but I'm not completely sold on it. I think the strongest appeal, for me, is the complete disregard for answers or clarity on everything, but at the same time, it acts to keep the characters kind of muddied and not quite as interesting as they could be.

Still, underwhelming finale, wished it were a bit more exciting, and the whole chaotic mess Kevin woke up to was unearned IMO. Great acting work by everyone involved though. Nora was my favorite of season 1, but since they ruined her character this year by making her a glorified baby carrier, I'm rooting for Matt, his ex-vegetable, and their rape baby. And John's son seems like a bro.

Shit I would've liked to see more of:
>Carny Village shenanigans outside of Jarden
>Where the tower guy poops
>More of Evie's tits (her head fro does it for me)
>John getting more comeuppance than just his daughter left him for a cult

i just really like the way everything in the show is such a "fuck you" to the rest of television.
It's just fucking miserable. All the time. It just wallows in its misery. And stands in complete disbelief at the hopelessness of its misery. And then it gives you these glimmers like "wink wink, it's about to get less miserable." -- then just completely squashes your hopes -- "nope, sorry."

I've never seen a show with the balls to just say "everything is completely fucked. nothing is okay. no one is okay. no one is getting better. nothing is going to be okay."
>>
>>63401230
The Walking Dead does that (at least up until I gave up on that piece of shit show) except it didn't inject anything interesting into the episodes like the cavalcade of magical negros or tower guy or Ann Dowd's acting.

You do realize contracts are completely different for children under the age of 18 right? There would be no way in hell they'd be able to shoot everything in time with child labor laws that don't allow underage actors to work more than a certain amount of hours.
>>
>>63401393
I guess I just used to mistake the boring, tedious happenings of Rick Grimes and Co for depressing narratives. I hate that show though, I heard that last season was a step up from the previous ones but I'm not wasting anymore time on it. Way to ruin a great premise.

hannibal really is the downer ride that never ends, but you've gotta put up with a lot of long, aesthetically wonderful, but seemingly disconnected shit to enjoy it.

leftovers tends to its own disjointed thing, but it usually ends up tying back into the plot/characterization somehow.

well yeah sure. It's just kind of strange seeing two actors who are almost the same age (Nora and Tom for example) play characters with vastly different age ranges. While Tom is in his early twenties at most in the show Nora is a full grown mother who already has a large portion of her youth behind her.

nora is much younger than kevin and his wife

her children were little kids

>>63401590
so far there is nothing that actually implies supernatural shit is occurring save the walnut salad thing. (and obviously departed.)
>>
>>63401600
Did you not notice the beginnings? Kevin didn't want to feel like there wasn't anything more for him to do. The last scene is reminiscent of the party scene where he looks at his family and just has a blank stare. At the end here he's crying and happy as hell to see them all.

yeah and to be honest some people just have those type of faces that can look pretty young for a long time. I guess that's the reason why some people have issues distinguishing between some 16 year old kid and some 25 year old adult because they look the same to them.
>>
>>63401633
I didn't even bother doing mental jumping jacks to go "oh this shit can be explained scientifically" like I attempted with GAYISLANDSHOW at first, I'm just automatically thinking "magic shit happens in this show's universe, I guess".

>Did you not notice the beginnings? Kevin didn't want to feel like there wasn't anything more for him to do.
Ah, well if you're going back that far sure. But he confided to Matt that he fell apart when he found them after the departure. So that was the space of a few days.
>>
>209 literally shits all over the audience

I guess what makes people so mad about lindelof is he keeps getting away with having zero writing ability what so ever.

the GR storyline was the finale
Kevin was resurrected twice and the second time was just as relevant as the first.

its hard to appreciate a show when you fall in love with the charm of the first season. big changes are hard to deal with but i love this show and think its being done wonderfully.
>>
I feel like this thread has given me a true breakthrough because this is truly /reddit/ the show because everyone on that website is obsessed with this show.

but also, it is a great show, and contains an equal amount of liberal/conservative values that can appeal to anyone on 4chan, especially because of its irreverent humor and (sometimes) great writing

reddit is a terrible website, but in a sense so is 4chan because we created those Scientology faggots that made 4chan look like a bunch of Guy Fawkes wearing autists four or five years ago.

/tv/ is my favorite board on 4chan, but it has an unfortunate overlap with reddit. I'm just (very) drunk and am realizing that this great board has more of a relation to reddit than any of us would like to admit, what's important is that we continue to remain extremely hostile to each other to keep our faggot asses in check.
>>
>>63401685
what if it turns out it was all a dream and Kevin was his own grandfather locked up in the mental ward, his brain trying to rationalize his own craziness by coming up with that weird story about how he's actually his own son and how people just randomly disappeared.

not even scientifically explained. just more or less, isnt magical. its just perceived that way because the entire feeling of the show is around how its characters secretly are all afraid that things are happening beyond their control. that one event, october 14th, is forever haunting them because no matter what its always at the back of their minds.
>>
>>63401727
After Lost, I'm numb to Lindelof's twist bullshit, so if this show continues to its natural conclusion as per the writers and something like that were the case, I wouldn't mind very much. I'd go "welp, *that* was interesting" and go on with my day. It's like when you have a bad breakup early on in your dating life and she's a cheating whore. Every one after that, provided you're not some needy faggot, is easy to handle because you've gone through the bad already and expect the worst each time after.

Magic is anything that science can't explain, pretty much. If we found out there's a planet in our galaxy with aliens that can move shit with their minds, I wouldn't be surprised. We could find out a number of things about their biology and environment that would help us understand the mechanism behind what on Earth we'd call "magic".

I guess what I'm saying is I use "magic" to mean "the unexplainable" as in even if the show DID want to tell us what happened (which it won't) the answer won't be "tachyons did it" but rather something like aliens, or dimensional shifting, or genetic reawakening, or some such shit outside of IRL science.

Which is cool with me, I really don't give a shit how this all shakes out. Watching it fuck with audience expectations week to week is enough for me out of this show. If I want grounded and engaging plot, I'll watch Fargo.

yeah but you are sort of missing the point of the show. its not about whats magic or real. its just family drama centered around one major supernatural event. they just relate everything back to it because its a terrifying thought that these things are happening beyond their control.

You guys realize this is Lost now, right? I mean, this is literally stuff straight from Lost.

My sister is a lot younger than me and never watched Lost. She's the one who suggested I check out this show. After I caught up over Thanksgiving, I asked her why she enjoyed it and she said "you don't know what's going to happen next" and I wanted to tell her she's just chasing the dragon but some lessons are best learned on your own. When I see Lindelof's name on a thing, my expectations are set as low as they go.
