Just like its main character Kevin Garvey,The Leftoversmiraculously survived.

HBO obliged and granted Lindelof and co. eight final episodes to end their story on their own terms.

The show can evoke every emotion on the spectrum just by exploring loss, grief, and faith.

Without spoiling important specifics, the new season begins in a similar fashion to the last.

Our principal characters are the same, but relationships have shifted and evolved.

The season still wisely utilizes its single-character focused episode structure, illuminating each character in new and unexpected ways.

Also, count on that haunting score to punctuate several jaw-dropping moments.
