Should i give this a chance? I watched the first 10 minutes of it and it seemed like another teen drama but it's highly regarded in /tv/ so i might be wrong. I mean it was only 10 minutes, i don't know anything about it. I just don't want to waste my time if it's not worth it
>>
>>80760929

for fucks sake

the rule is 3 episodes. You give a show 3 episodes to decide. Not 10 fucking minutes.

There are exceptions where the first season is widely known to be not very good but is worth it for the rest (Parks and Rec or Star Trek: TNG), but this doesn't apply here.

>>
>>80760929
It's a good show if you like watching stuff for the performances as opposed to the story. You never really find anything out (it's written by Lindeloff after all) and everything is super vague and can be interpreted in a bunch of ways.

I personally don't really like it that much. I don't need everything to be explained to me and written out but this show goes too far in the opposite direction.

If you don't like The Leftovers then you are a pleb and that is objective FACT.

I consider it probably the best show of all time that I've seen. To overuse what I wrote in earlier threads, the sheer understanding of human condition and emotion the show portrays is simply put unrivaled in television shows and in most films. It shows empathy on a level that just blows my mind.

It's fucking amazing show and the best one I've seen.
>>
>same handful of fags still pretending this show is good
>>
You should. Soundtack is awsome, and the show is too. Just go in knowing you wont get all the answers to big questions, that is deliberate.
>>
>>80761148
I don't think your interpretation of it is right. The show explores emotions heavily, like tragedy, or memories and "who we are". This entire "mystery of vanishing" has been a complete irrelevancy, a tool to drive the characters to a situations of different kinds to go through their emotions and what makes us tick and tock.

Like driving one character to a LIFE AFFIRMING SUICIDE I mean absolute fucking hell that is something I have never seen in tv.
>>
>>80761526
And I meant, the part about the emotion exploring is what makes the content of the show. These are things yo act with your body and few words. So of course someone might describe a scene played out with these guidelines might appear "vague" but it is anything but.

Of course the entire poof thing is largely untouched outside of Faith aspect and Nora's role and the convention, which is fine. The side effects of it and how it changes people are what it is about.

The drama can get really fucking hammy and it's got lindelof's patented 'add this in just because' writing technique. It's a human drama marketed towards comicon nerd culture types. The kinds of people that go online and love to speculate on every little detail and come up with theories and such. It is not 2deep4anyone but that belief validates the few who enjoy it, like they're in on some kind of secret.

>>80766134
>The kinds of people that go online and love to speculate on every little detail and come up with theories and such

Except this show has not cared about the technicalities surrounding the event or whatitscalled in-universe nor does it try to explain it in anyway. There is no mystery or whodunit in the grand scheme of the shows writing, like seasonal arcs of "omg will Jack Bauer save the President for the 11th time".

It's about life and various emotions people can experience in there (at best, this is what the show is about).

I do think that the Meg ebil mastermind arc in S2 was a heavy blow to the overall flow of the show and how it wasn't really in line with anything other that happened before, during or after it. It was pretty terrible arc overall that didn't play like rest of the show. And I didn't like it, but I forgive it since rest of the show is so much better.

What is this obvious drama you are talking about and where does it appear and why is it a negative thing.

within about five minutes of being introduced to matt, it's completely obvious hes just Job and nothing good is going to happen to him, ever. So entire episodes devoted to "bad things happen to matt!" are just horrid slogs in obviousness.

your show is never going to catch on just let it go

>>80766865
Yes it's obvious. But that doesn't make it bad. The Tree of Life also makes it clear that it's an adaptation of Book of Job, and it's not bad because it's obvious in that context.
You may disagree w/r/t/ execution, but I love it. Matt's one of my favorite things in the show.

You know anon, if you weren't such a shutin you would know that different people like different things. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean other people don't.

The show has a score of 8/10 on IMDB so you are in the minority of people who don't like it.

>DROWNS HER
Kills the leader first, then the little kid and then regular-Patti. Has to kill the symbolic and imaginary Patti first to get to the real Patti.
In freudian terms he takes on to Patti's ID, Ego and superego. He saves the ID first, then kills the superego, then killds the ID and then the ego.

This is a real good rabbit hole episode.

LOST fans were completely cuckolded by the fact that mysteries never mattered in the LOST. I was here in the finale day and I saw the threads. They were fucking mad about their little conspiracies, theories and mysteries not mattering at all. So by their cognitive dissonance they came to Lindelof's second series with same early LOST attitude of le sovling the mystery le big ebig happening and got btfo before second episode was over.

So I imagine the upset anons over teh show are lost fans that feel "betrayed" when they dont get what they want.
