Season 1 -
In a word, The Leftovers is visceral. Melancholia is resonated with authority, aided by a haunting soundtrack and writing that captures realism in every dialogue, every interchange.
Dark, morbid, and unflinching in the face of a modern audience that demands fast-paced action and tangible progression of plot; The Leftovers is a testament to contemporary story-telling, in that it refuses to alter itself in accordance with the requirements of the masses.
Season One begins with the viewer teased into questioning the tapestry of narrative, and ends with a phenomenal juxtaposition of human emotion. I don't care about the Departed anymore, because the mystery pales in comparison to the ones who remain, and the ugly nuances of humanity secreted by masterful character development.
The Leftovers captures human loss and existential dissonance, in a manner comparable to the final season of Lost, evoking parallels of subjugation to forces unknown. I stand haunted by the first season, similar to emotions invoked by the mosaic of Lost. Beyond that, I have no other compliment, no truer accolade.
The reincarnation of modern television continues, with a surging influx of unfiltered writing waltzed with uncompromising acting; The Leftovers stands at its forefront, its vanguard.
Watch it.
