8 Reasons You Must Watch HBO's The Leftovers
1. A Perfect Finish
To be as vague as possible and without spoiling anything at all, this show is worth your time for the ending alone. Whether you're the kind of person that will be put off a show entirely for its final few episodes or if you care more about the journey than the end, it doesn't matter because The Leftovers manages to nail both.
At only 28 episodes across three seasons, The Leftovers manages to feel succinct and tight in a way that allows the writers to focus on what matters most come the end. A deep catharsis and emphasis on the characters concludes the narrative with care and appreciation for the individuals you had spent all this time watching.
A love for this world and the people that inhabit it is clear in every frame and that makes every final scene and sequence all the more meaningful. The Leftovers takes you on a journey of broken characters and examines whether they can ever be fixed or not and the ending manages to be satisfying in practically every major way. It is as close to a perfect ending that the show could ask for and you will not regret the time you sink into it.
