Ermm does the show even have super nautral events except from the beginnng or is it just a soap opera drama
This show is so weird. Everything in my brain is telling me I should hate it but I just don't. I fucking like it. Many elements are downright cringe but the cinematography is good, the soundtrack great, and everybody seems to actually be putting in an effort. That's a lot more than most television can say.
I know nothing is going to get wrapped up or answered fully and I'm at peace with that. As long as they don't go full retard I'm all in for the final season.
I'd still take another season of the Knick over it though.
OP is a confirmed pleb
just the beginning. and the skizo things.
feels like some Lost 2.0
Its got a lot of weird shit but nothing blatantly over the top like aliums or anything.
Well, maybe some stuff is over the top, but it gets brushed off pretty quickly. The drama is definitely the main focus but its higher quality than soap opera for sure.
I know what you mean but I honestly believe Leftovers to be better than Lost at this point, at least in terms of enjoyability and direction.
that's the score. the show is garbage.
It's the best thing on television at the moment
fuck off retard
More captivating than capeshit, Big Brother, Game of Thrones, and like 80% of the shit Sup Forums discusses either way. Its not trying to be the next Sopranos for fuck sake
It's soap opera drama, basically people crying and yelling at each other all the time, with supernatural events propelling the entire plot and featured or referenced in every episode. But around here it's the best drama of all time that is not supernatural at all.
It's much worse when fake allusions of pretension get praised as having substance and depth than people enjoying garbage that they know is garbage.
what do you thinks gonna go down in australia lads?
>>Black Jesus
But this guy was awesome, probably the most interesting... villain?... in years.
>fake allusions of pretension
what a remarkable pseudo-intellectual post.
Or you know it could just be in the middle ground between the best and the worst thing ever, not necessarily one or the other. I for one would be doing even more crying and yelling than the mcs do if a shit ton of people just disappeared one day and no one knew how or why.
much worse than GoT. Stop being a special snowflake and pretending to enjoy this pseudo intellectual crap
>there will never be a leftovers thread without retards shitting it up because they don't like it
I couldn't stop thinking about him in Peep Show and cracking up every time he was onscreen. Even without being on Peep Show his character was a fucking nut
A bunch of bullshit probably. Hopefully some bloodshed and a lot less of that annoying fucking cult. Schizodad killing himself would be pretty entertaining, or just completely abandoning all the characters we've come to know and giving us a brand new cast for no reason
Gonna need a bigger hook breh
Yes but it wouldn't make for a good or insightful television show.
so its mediocre with pretensions of greatness?
With Kevin's dad being there, I except a whole lot of psychological Kevin going batshit crazy shit a la International Assasin. Basically it's going to be pure telekino.
>What is the The Night Of
How much better would the show be without the cult?
its going to end with the "shocking" revelation that kevin died in miracle (or even earlier) and you know it.
No, it wont. Lindelof was explicit in that everything that happened in Miracle was real and actually happened.
No pseudo-intellectual is saying that your show is metaphorical in interviews and then throwing a bunch of random religious and spiritual symbolism and mysteries into the show because you can't write compelling drama and people will eat that shit up anyway.
jesus christ just fuck off idiot.
I think you're taking it more seriously than it does or its fans do. People who like it just think its a good time. It literally all but promises not to explain anything, its the opposite of smart and thats one of its selling points. Its dumb entertainment but its pretty to look at.
About infinitely. They aggravate me so much to the point that I've almost turned off episodes that are centered on them.
He said the same thing about lost.
The sign of truly great art is that the creators explain how you are supposed to interpret it in interviews.
I tended to just skim through them, well the Laurie episodes anyway.
I think after Lost we should know better than to pay attention to anything he says at all and just take everything at face value.
People who like it think it's the best show of all time and are getting their spiritual and emotional sustenance from it. Rationally I shouldn't care but when shit like Leftovers is propped up to holy degrees the entire dialogue of criticism suffers and it pisses me off.
I dunno man, I spend a lot of time on Sup Forums and Leftover threads don't happen a lot, and when they do its usually just bantz. I think you're thinking of Re:Zero on Sup Forums or something
Even if everything you're saying was true, do you go through your whole life forming opinions on things purely based on other people's reactions to them or other people's opinions? Thats pretty lame and unfulfilling for yourself man. Thats like wearing hollister in high school just cause everyone else was wearing hollister.
I think after lost (and tomorrowland, and Prometheus, and world war z, and cowboys and aliens, and star trek into darkness) people should know by now to just avoid anything with the words "written by damon lindelof" anywhere near it. But hey, that's just me being sane.
I hope you're enjoying your first summer on Sup Forums.
woop woop! Hater alert! woop woop!
Sir, do you know how hard you were just hating back there? I'm gonna need to see some credentials to support why we should be paying you any attention right now.
Honestly if this was my first summer on Sup Forums I think I would have disliked Sup Forums so much that I wouldn't have wasted the last 4 years of my life on it.
>getting this shitter shattered because you don't understand how to appreciate a good show
Great show but should've ended last season
I skim watched it.What is the deal here, you do whatever was holding you to earth and you get taken to heaven?I watched 1 ep where 2 girls go skinny dipping and that gets them into heaven
I dunno about all that, that implies it jumped the shark when technically it started midair above the shark from episode 1. I'm glad its getting one more season, but they could easily end up pissing me off enough to make me wish it didn't end up getting another season too. This show walks a thin tightrope sometimes, like it can't decide whether it wants to be kino or just a car crash you can't avert your eyes from.
Try watching it without the bottle of robitussin
show is shit and i'm glad it's done this season. fuck lindelof
show is pretty good and i'm glad it's done this season. fuck lindelof
>dont like show
>don't post in threads about it all day
very difficult task
>couldn't stop thinking about him in Peep Show and cracking up every time he was onscreen
i know that feel
No, I formed my own opinion on the show after being intrigued by the premise and watching the first season. Once I discovered this cloying manipulative and most importantly empty show was being propped up as the best show on television with amazing depth I was initially dismayed, and that dismay turned in to frustration as similarly frivolous and poorly made shows got praise heaped upon them and now I like to vent and also try and shed light on why it's a bad show. I'm tilting at windmills, I know.
parts of S1 were very strong, S2 felt a bit forced,
this scene was brilliant youtube.com

I honestly don't disagree with your criticisms of the show itself but again, I have no idea what corner of the internet you found yourself in where people were praising it as the best thing since sliced bread. It certainly wasn't here.
Agreed. Creepy small town underbelly stuff is fun, but they just keep forcing the cult and lmao it was all a dream and other dumb shit down our throat that would work much better in smaller doses.
I think it's one of the best TV dramas of recent times. There's not a lot of competition.
Very recent times as in past couple years, yeah why not. Shows like The Knick and season 1 True Detective effortlessly surpass it in my opinion though, just by virtue of being consistent and smart
>TD S1
>smart
green paint
I agree about The Knick, but that still leaves it easily within the top 10.
Smarter than Leftovers, that better?
Oh yeah, top 10 easy. You don't have to reinvent the wheel to be better than the majority of television, you just have to give half a shit about trying to make a quality product. Even if you fail at it the just TRYING makes your product better than the majority.
i he wasted % amount of time on it, he has right to tell his complains about it
>this image yould be a banner for Sup Forums
top fucking kek, you are so right
He posts in nearly every single leftovers threads making the same lazy simplistic arguments.
Why?
You have the right to eat a can of beans, decide the can of beans is the most disgusting thing ever, keep buying and eating the same brand of beans anyways, then go on a forum for lovers of this particular brand of beans and do nothing but spew your hate for it but you'll still just get called an annoying asshole and a decent bean forum moderator would kick you from the discussion.
That too.
>everyone who criticizes leftovers is the same person
Just like everyone who praises it is damon lindelof.
>food metaphor
Want to know how I know you're fat?
I'm buff as fuark you pencil necked limp wristed toy
I am kinda hungry rn tho...
>but they don't explain anything!
>i don't like lindelof!
building a work around mysterious elements, by way of "hooking" viewers/readers, then pretending those elements don't matter is the height of hackery.
Defending such hackery is idiocy.
>But around here it's the best drama of all time that is not supernatural at all.
You are so butthurt about people enjoying something you don't, it is honestly embarrassing.
If you can't tell from the opening sequence in the first episode that nothing makes sense or will ever make sense then you deserve whatever fate comes your way.
This shit ain't fuckin Herzog adapting a Lynch treatment of an obscure Shakespearian play or whatever rocket mechanics smart people like to watch
No; it's literally the same person. He makes the same arguments, with the same posting style, and the same generic list of grievances. He also spends more time whining about people watching the show, than he does making any sort of intelligent critique on it. He also isn't actually interested in a discussion, and trying to explain why you like the show to him is an utter waste of time.
Also he's you, samefag idiot. Don't bother opening up photoshop.
Not explaining supernatural elements isn't the same as saying they don't matter. And the vast majority of the supernatural elements in season 2 are explained.
So you're wrong on both counts. Your post is the definition of pleb idiocy.
Is this as close as you're going to come to admitting you're aware the show is shit but you enjoy it anyway?
not explaining the mystery is part of the whole point of the story
I've literally said almost those exact words at least 5 times in this thread already
But if you're meaning for me to say that Game of Thrones is better, that's never gonna happen.
He doesn't care what you're actually saying, he just wants to bitch.
b-b-but that's hackery! because I don't like it and I say so!
Oh, so they explained how kevin came back from the dead twice. Or how eddie winslow could read futures. or exactly why no one disappeared from jarden. Or why the bird came back from the dead. Or what the hotel was. Or whats up with matt's wife. Or what crazydad is up to.
Oh, wait, the show actually just threw all this shit out as cheap drama hooks to keep people watching and will forget about all of it with season 3. Just like most of the themes of season 1 were forgotten when season 2 started.
Nice dubs
Nice trips
Your dubs suck cause you're a hater.
If the dude learned one thing from Lost, its to tell the audience up front that the plot is batshit insane 2+2 = grapes nonsense upfront instead of leading us on with tomfoolery. If you can't accept this simplest of concepts then you will never be able to enjoy this show, plain and simple. Despite it being utter nonsense, its fun and engaging, and the acting ain't half bad. It clearly has a decent budget that isn't being squandered. You'd have to be actually blind to not see any reasons why someone might like this show.
I know, I don't know why I'm doing this to myself anymore. I've gone in circles for at least 3 hours with this guy by now.
Well golly, I must have missed all of your posts on that in this and every other leftovers thread. As 9/10 of the posts in any and every leftovers thread is devoted to sucking the show's cock like it ejaculates diamonds and gold.
>Sup Forums plebs can't handle mystery without being outright explained how everything is happening so they get buttmad and shitpost about one of the best shows on air right now
pathetic. this place really is worse than reddit.
lmao I think I'm starting to get off a little bit on how hard you're baiting. Maybe this is some mutual masturbation.
The reason lost failed is because throwing out mysterious bullshit to hook viewers, then pretending everyone should ignore the hooks once they're hooked, only to keep farming said hooks for more hooks to keep viewers hooked every episode, eventually has the result of causing people to realize you're just stringing them along and everything is just filling time between commecial breaks.
The only difference between the leftovers and lost is the leftovers has no commercial breaks.
Lost didn't have hot teenage girls stripping down to their underwear either, lets be fair
You're just mad cause she hooks up with the black kid, aren't you?
...
Wasn''t the annoying blonde cunt supposed to be teenaged?
All the characters that were seen attending high school were supposed to be teenaged. Focus now.
>Oh, so they explained how kevin came back from the dead twice.
Yes, it was explained.
>Or how eddie winslow could read futures.
Not a mystery. That's like saying, "they didn't explain how the main character knows how to drive a car!"
>or exactly why no one disappeared from jarden.
Also not a mystery. There are some families where no one disappeared, like the Garveys. Is that a mystery? No, it's a coincidence. Same here.
>Or why the bird came back from the dead.
Yes, it was explained.
Or what the hotel was.
Yes, it was explained.
Or whats up with matt's wife.
What do you mean "what's up"? Can't you be more specific?
>Or what crazydad is up to.
Sure, this isn't answered. But it's also a character not actually in the town or affecting the main storyline. Wait until season 3.
Lost didn't fail. It was a massive commercial success.
Some people didn't like it because they assumed the point of the series was the mystery. The creators justified this belief in interviews where the encouraged people to figure things out and had giant chalkboards dedicated to "explaining" the lore, when they actually had no intention of doing so in the actual show. The Leftovers from the very beginning has said this isn't the case. The writers have been very clear that they won't answer the question of the Departure. The comparison you're making is lazy and stupid.
In LOST you stupid piece of shit.
The goal of LOST was to run forever.
It ended.
Therefore it failed.
Just because you're frustrated does not mean you need to be cuss. This is a worksafe board.
Anyways, I didn't like Lost enough to even bother finishing it. I try not to remember too much of it.
>The goal of LOST was to run forever.
No it wasn't.
I wonder if this post would even make sense to the guy. The concept of not thinking about things you don't like seems completely foreign to him. Maybe he's trying to kill himself via aneurysm. Suicide by cop seems to be more fashionable these days, but hey, who am I to judge? Just a shame he's going out a virgin.
>anyone who doesn't like what I like, for any reason, is the same person, and that person is an autistic virgin loser who's so mad that I'm liking what I like hes going to kill himself LOL!
great discussion
Yes, you are the same person, we can tell by the way you don't switch up your talking points or sentence structure. And the fact that you're so triggered by a fucking virginity joke or all things is pathetic. It's the internet equivalent of a Your Momma joke.
Prove me wrong. Don't just hook me and leave me hangin bro.
Holy Wayne was cool though
And you're supposed to hate the cuck
Youre also going to be disappointed when someone on the show gets BLACKED.COM
It's straight up kino doe
>we
>implying
I mean, I get it, you're trying to stop all negative posting in leftovers threads, but that's not going to happen. The fact you can't respond to negativity with anything but personal attacks only serves as a disservice to the show.
>show/movie centered around super natural event
>said super natural event is never explained and is simply a vehicle for "drama."
Lazy hack writing 101.
Holy Wayne needs his own side show. The adventures of Holy Wayne. I just wanna see him talk in Dr Seuss poems and fuck people out of their money from coast to coast for an hour at least 13 times.
I wanna see some cult vs cult gang war action too. That'd be fuckin sick
Top 10 of recent years means absolutely fuck all. Being the best of shit mountain does not make a show good. Also The Knick outclasses Leftovers in every conceivable category and there is no comparison.
here's your (you) faggot
