HBO’s The Leftovers isn’t pretty, but it sure is compelling.
Here’s our review of the first episode.
The Leftoversbegins with a woman and her infant child at the laundromat.
Im not going to sugarcoat this:The Leftoversis an ugly show.
I dont mean that aesthetically.
One has to wonder what Lindelofs headspace was like when making such a dark and solemn affair.
That sigh of relief doesnt last long.
Its heart-wrenching stuff, but Im not sure if it qualifies as entertaining.
It couldnt be the Rapture if so-and-sos asshole brother-in-law is gone, could it?
