re: The Leftovers HBO Season 1 Thread

This is depressing to me.

i really knew nothing about this until last night when i started watching the first 2 eps and reading about the book (didn't even know there was a book until this thread).

I was really hoping that HBO would turn this show into a Book of Revelation esque series. I think it could be awesome to see a rapture/antichrist/end of times series that doesn't star Kirk Cameron.

knowing now that theyre going to just drop us in and lift us out without really knowing much of anything just kinda sucks.

question though. Is the Leftovers a book series or is it only one book as of right now?

What will HBO do after this season? probably stretch one book into 2-3 seasons and pressure the writer to finish a second book? Make up their own shite?

i dunno. im with you. ill probably watch because there is nothing else on, but i dont think this will be a great show.
