Re: The Leftovers: At least they ...
At least they gave a little bit of insight into what happened to the 2% of people who disappeared. It's good to get the closure of knowing. Nora goes through that device to the other side and sees that the 2% of people all were left in their own world without the other 98% of people and had to make it work. I do think it would have been cooler if they had shown Nora going across to the other side and seeing the people. And I don't see why she wouldn't just stay there with her family rather than come back alone. But oh well, whatever. I was really worried they were going to keep it completely unanswered and unexplored through to the end.
I'm glad you guys liked The Leftovers but it just didn't totally work for me. It felt like Season 2 was a total reset / reboot because the show was way off track, which it was. But I didn't like the new track either, nor most of the new characters and setting they introduced in Season 2. And then the excursion to AU in Season 3 mostly didn't interest me. Anyway I don't want to spend a bunch of words crapping on something that others enjoyed. Apparently different people are allowed to like different things!

Wife and I watched the season finale of Widow's Bay the other day. REALLY enjoyed this show! Spooky, intense, but also funny and clever and witty. Somehow the comedy works with the horror and neither detracts from the other. Great acting from Matthew Rhys, Stephen Root, and especially the awesome Kate O'Flynn who turns in a masterful performance. My wife has rewatched the whole show 2-3 times with her family members and claims it is very rewatchable and that you see new things each time. This is the best show of 2026. Watch this show right away.

I've heard the same. Looking forward to watching this next.
