HBO: † "The Leftovers" Series Discussion...†

[elpablo21]

just watching the episode now, why does meg speak when she's in the GR ?

Shes in the pledge stage so I guess they still talk

I remember the scene from the 1st ep. When she was in the kitchen with other "pledges" and they talked like normal

The previews for the upcoming episodes has me joining the Kevin is going to fully lose his mind (just like his dad) and dude who shot the dogs really isnt real bandwagon

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Parts of this show are just not well done, other parts are really intriguing.

 

[8pm at msg]

I liked this episode. I don't know what's really happening on a whole though. Basically you have to invest in this one to see what's what.

People made a big deal about the baby...then he gets the baby...and they act like they don't care I would've been mad.

 

[36Hypno]

This week' s ep was def a step down from last week but still good. Still trying to figure this show out

 

[ronaldcinho]

gonna have to peep yesterdays episode today...although I feel like it's gonna be really hard to top last week's. that was some of the best done, most well thought out television I've seen in a while.

 

[011781]

this show is starting to get on my nerves... 

can we finally get a direction, some sort of background on what the **** is going on

feel like it's just being weird to be weird at this point. 

 

[011781]

just read the summary of the book on Google Play... 

smh.. 

makes me not even want to watch this nonsense anymore 

it turned into the Matrix movies.... started off awesome... then just dragged on making no sense and never really getting to the point 

 

[shogun]

These gr people are so douchey. I would be tempted so much to join them to just annoy the ish out of them. I'd wear off-white clothes so I wouldn't match them, smoke some swisher sweets since those thing smell bad, not talk but make weird sounds, waste all their paper and pens / markers.

 

[hymen man]

I especially hate the fat short-haired lady

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Yeah, I don't love how they represent the GR. It's mysterious but not in a good or intriguing way. The leader lady being all smug, we-have-a-plan-but-you-don't-know-it all episode long was cliche and annoying.

 

[jumpmanpro97]

just started watching this (first 2 episodes so far) finally have free time on my hands. It's intriguing so far

Were all the girls poolside Asian? That compound leader has a thing for Asian girls i'm guessing. Wondering what he does to have people pay good money to go and see him.

black guys love that "asian persuasion"

 

[shogun]

I especially hate the fat short-haired lady

The one with the glasses? It was great when someone threw paint on her the episode before. I hate the fat leader more. She has a face that's easy to hate.

 

[hymen man]

yeah the one with glasses. i don't mind the leader cuz I know she's a good actress.. but yeah, the whole GR right now is annoying to me. stealing pictures and what not.

 

[robtoofresco]

So apparently Tom (think that's his name) is the cop's step-son? Either way, him & the asian chick are extremely annoying characters imo. This show is just all over the place again after the well executed 3rd episode. The whole stolen baby Jesus storyline was dumb.

One thing this eps did was explain the family dynamic.

Chief Garvey is Tom's step-dad and has been raised him at a pretty young age but he still remembers that his actual dad left him and his mom.

 

[lyonbc1]

Was about to bail on this show after the fort couple eps...watched the priest one a week late and it drew me back in (best one by far fr me) smh, hoping last nights can keep momentum though, watching now...was too slow aside from the huge fight and felt really disjointed otherwise. Was hella lost after the first two

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I'm really trying to like this show, I've attached myself to it. However it's just so tough to really love, like appreciate. It's a decent show overall but really the only thing keeping my interest is to figure out just what the **** is going on. The themes presented are valid and interesting, I just don't feel like the commentary is that intelligent. I do believe this could improve as the show develops though. I'm giving it the ultimate chance.

Too bad there isn't that one bombshell that you just can't wait til the show focuses on her. How can the entire cast not be attractive?

 

[shogun]

lori (chief's wife) is a scumbag. I can understand her leaving her husband if she found out he cheated on her but to abandon her daughter is messed up. She opened her present and immediately put it in the sewer grate. Their family was fortunate to not have anyone disappear but they're so damn dysfunctional.

 

[ziostilon]

We're still waiting on why Tommy ran away from home.
He was tempted to go back until his yellow flip phone went off.
I think it'll make his storyline a bit more interesting if we know what's motivating him to follow Wayne's club

 

[Master Zik]

I really liked that scene when those GR members handed him that pamphlet

 

[robtoofresco]

 funniest thing on that show besides people throwing stuff at the GR's

 

[imvictor]

Best episode so far IMO.
Still don't know what is going on, though.

The one tonight or last week? Last week's episode was the best. It touched on a lot of stuff I wanted to know. Tonight, not so much. The bodies on the road part was dope, but everything kept going back and forth back and forth I don't like that part of the series.

This week.. Last week was good but the priest took so many L's got me wanting to stop watching.

 

[Brownstone]

I am torn thus far, it pains me that the GR gets so much screen time because it's almost impossible to grasp what they are feeling. Like I caught myself wanting the wife to get offed so I wouldn't have to watch her constipated face everytime she is on screen. 

 

[spidermachine916]

the way he threw baby jesus out the window
