The Leftovers

Given the myriad of ways to end up there, it's not getting easier to figure where/what the other dimension is.

Anyone see the teen girls?

Come on Wacky, everyone knows you can't rape your wife. He said, she said.
 
I didn't either. I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something and also I was wondering if any of the dearly departed ended up there.

I figure there's a possibility that 'place' is only in Kevin's head.
 
I just read a comment on Reddit saying that maybe the car Virgil met Kevin in was Evie's car, and also the well was where Evie's car was found, AND ALSO probably where that prehistoric lady died from the snake bite leaving an orphan where the Orphan's Well was.

One of the reviews I read said Kevin woke up there a week after drinking the poison, but I didn't see anything that showed how long he was unconscious or dead or WHATEVER. If it is all in his head, which I don't doubt that it was in his head and not a physical place, he was still buried in the ground for a few days. He definitely should be dead!
 
This one was not my favorite episode, it was very slow... but suddenly a TWIST appears!
 
I keep forgetting to mention that Tim Tebow is one of the departed. In the opening when they're playing the theme, near the end, he's one of the vanished people. DOING HIS TEBOWING.

(Tim Tebow is an American super Christian football player)
 
Never heard of him.

My favourite celebrity departed mention was in the first episode where someone said "The Pope I understand, but Gary Fucking Busey?"

(Liv was great in the latest episode.)
 
Who is the guy in purgatory (or where ever it is Kevin goes when he dies)? The one from the bridge and the one at the karaoke bar. Is he representing some mythological figure?

AND ALSO that was a really good season finale.
 
I don't know who that guy is! He's not the dog guy from last year...

It was a good episode but a bit weird and some parts were disappointing. The hotel AGAIN? It felt a bit silly. But the karaoke scene was good.

After all the build up with Meg last week it seemed like she was going to do something truly terrible, but all the GR did was break into town and stand around smoking. Again. Won't they just be rounded up and kicked out?

What's the point of Tommy? Last week he apparently helped stone a guy to death, this week he just helps Nora up and starts saying "I saved you, I'm good now!"

I thought we'd see Laurie and Jill talk but neither got much to do.

John is really bad at killing people.
 
I just read a Damon Lindelof interview and he said that he learned his lesson about Easter eggs, so if you notice something in the show, like the National Geographic magazine or Kevin's dad being in Australia it has a meaning. So now that makes me wonder about the man from the bridge EVEN MORE.

CARRIE COON IS NICE
 
It ends with an episode where everyone speaks French for some reason and at the very end Kevin has sex with a mailbox.

VII: On dong

There was quite a bit of male full-frontal nudity in The Leftovers Season 2. Prestige dramas typically lean towards displaying female bodies more prominently than male bodies. Was that something you were thinking about, or was it not intentional?

I just like penises. In the ingredients that The Leftovers requires, I feel like there’s an under-served audience of penis-admirers across all communities. It’s time to restore balance to the force — and I say that only half-joking.

In the script it was presented that those characters were nude, but then it’s up to the actors and directors to figure out what everybody’s level of comfort is. I would never get up on the podium and say, “This scene demands nudity in order to be authentic.” There’s always a way to portray nudity without actually showing genitalia. But if the actors are down, then let’s go for it.

In the case of Chris [Zylka] and Carl Franklin — who directed the episode — Carl spoke to Chris and said, “I’d like to not be inhibited. We might see it, we might see your dong,” and Zylka was like, “Great.” In the case of [Christopher] Eccleston, he emailed me and said, “I want Matt to be completely and totally naked and I think that we should see it.” I was like “Great!”

I celebrate the Year of the Dong, if that’s what it should be.

THE YEAR OF THE DONG!
 
I FOUND THE ORIGINAL THE LEFTOVERS THREAD!!! It was only on page 32 :rwmad:

Okay, in case you read this before you watch the 1st episode I won't say what happened, but it was really good. Full of wtf is going on moments, as usual. The acting is great. That thing you notice where people seem fine on the outside but are so fucked up on the inside is still there. Let me know when you watch it.

The Leftovers (so it's searchable, oh I already said THE LEFTOVERS whatever)
 
I thought we posted a thread for season 3 but I can't find it so I guess we didn't!

The dog man came back! It's a shame he went fully crazy and needed his head blown off.

It's sad we won't get more of Liv Tyler but I guess she could appear in Kevin's crazy head.

The Gary Busey balloon was amazing!

The opening scene in the past was easier to follow than the one with the cavemen at the start of season two.

Jill is so cute but I don't think we'll see much of her this season.

I hope Matt's wife doesn't die when she leaves town.
 
Well we did have another thread, but it only had a few posts in it and I wanted to read some of the posts about last season because IT'S KINDA CONFUSING.

I couldn't help it, I watched the 2nd episode. They're all insane, imo!
