Eh, Leftovers is basically a more refined, better version of Lost, so it's natural there would be chat before the season starts.

Midway through Season 2, I appreciate both seasons in different ways now.

Agreed. The Leftovers is both an apology for Lost and a remake as handled by a channel like HBO.

Ironically, HBO would have probably blew it harder than ABC did if Lost premiered on HBO in 2004.

Basically, I wish Lost came out in 2017 on a good channel but if it wasn't for Lost and the lessons that were learned from it, TV would not be as good as it is now.

What happened to Carnivale? HBO was not handling serial mystery shows well at that time. Carnivale is the perfect example. It had freedom for the time it was on but ultimately the network didn't "get it".

Just like The Leftovers would have never made it past the first season with the ratings it had.

Season 3 intro is loving garbage

Wow, quite the wrong opinion you have there

That was a pretty cool ep but I'm definitely ready for the end of the series. While I love it, there is definitely something exhausting about this show.

Also Matt is playing a pretty cool reinterpretation of Locke.

There was nothing really wrong with that episode, I just wasn't super into it. Especially as the second to last episode. The first hotel episode was something special and this felt like a lot of retread and wheel spinning in an imaginary world when the next episode is the end of the series. Like "Across the Sea", it probably would have fit better earlier in a final season.

It would have been nice if Kevin died like 2 times max. I think he's died at least 5 times now

It was aight. Now that it is over I have made up my mind that Lost was the better show.

Is there a real life heart condition that would explain all the Kevin shenanigans like appearing to have no pulse or surviving a gun shot? Like some overdeveloped heart muscle or something?

yes
