Am I going to continually say WTF is happening every episode or do they gradually start explaining stuff?

I would turn it off now...it’s WTF through the entire show, the end doesn’t help either.

Just finish it. It’s a lot of WTF but it’s so good.

Don’t listen to the poster above me.

I second this.
After season 1, i almost didn’t watch the second.
I tried the second and it started really picking up.
Season 3 became insanely good.

It’s WTF throughout, but it is awesome.

Yeah its WTF throughout. But I thought the show was fantastic. One of the best around.

From the acting to the soundtrack it is all just top notch.

Just finished a rewatch few weeks back. Even better the 2nd time around.

It’s one of the best and most underrated series of the past 5ish years. Continue watching.

Listen to the theme song, and accept that what it says in the lyrics applies to how you should watch the show.

It's generally accepted that it is the most pretentious show in HBO history. If you don't realize that Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy is comedy, you'll love it. It doesn't even have any superheroes in it and the female lead is ugly. It's also poorly acted and the cinematography is amateurish. It's too unambiguous and doesn't leave enough for the viewer to figure out and the ending is wrapped up too tidily with a bow and all the interwoven pieces are connected. People that like it are the worst people on the planet and I will fight all twelve of them at Sonic. Come at me Movie Board bro.

poorly acted?

I get that its themes are out there, hard to follow and outlandish, but what parts were poorly acted?

I thought it was a great show. I’m not sure the best way to say it, but I loved the feel/atmosphere of the show. Also loved the piano

S1 is based on the book and is a solid B

S2 and S3 are A+ and phenomenal TV. Keep watching. It’s one of the few shows that’s really hit me emotionally and stayed with me after episodes.

The soundtrack is incredible as well.

If that's the case, please provide multiple reviews from actual, credible sources that say that.

It's generally accepted that it is one of the most ambitious, thought provoking, beautifully acted shows in HBO history.

And I can find several reviews to back up my statement.

Yep. Alan Sepinwall I respect very much and he’s always been a touch critic. He said the Leftovers was the best show of 2017 and one of his top shows of all time.

That’s good enough for me
