“Two percent doesn’t sound like much, but two percent of the entire planet, of every person on it, that’s more than the world’s 10 largest cities combined,” “it’s 140 million people—and like that, they were gone.

read the book because the author is one of my favorites. Should be good, but it'll be interesting how they play up the supernatural portion of this as the book doesn't really give an explanation of what happened, its more about the people that were left behind and how they cope with their lives after. kinda like how in "the road" doesnt tell you what happened to the world and why it was like that, they just follow the father and son around as they try to survive

 

[hometownhero]

thought only 2% of the population was going to be left.....

i'll probably watch the first few episodes

Count me in. As much as people hate on Lindelof for LOST.. I think he did a good job.

 

[servechilled81]

looks kinda weak to me

^Yeah Lost wasn't my cup of tea back then but since it's on HBO, I always give them the benefit of the doubt.

 

[nawghtyhare]

Maaaaan I'm so heated
This was the premise of a show I had for in like 2007
I even talked about it in that script writing thread we have
Missing out on millions right now

looks kinda weak to me

I have to agree. This seems as boring and pointless as walking dead. With that said, Ill probably be watching despite myself, much like walking dead lol

Wonder why he didn't go with the Left Behind series instead.

Anybody read both books, the Left Behind series and the Leftovers. Which one is better

 

[Master Zik]

Yeah the commercials and trailers for this make it seem like a weak show to me. Involving the word rapture aint helping much either. Lindelof name being part of it doesn't help but this is based off a book so to me he'd affect how the show looks and operates which could be a good thing cuz LOST had a really good flow as far as telling the story.

The only thing that interests me is the initial premise. Feels like I've read something with a similar concept but not rapture

 

[dwileykyot]

I'm so anti-Lindelof.... But because it's hbo I might end up tuning in

Ever since his tap dancing on lost, I've never forgiven that dude.

Plus the whole rapture premise is old and dumb... Damn you hbo

 

[imvictor]

Will be watching.
