You can say "silly" all you want, but we all know what you really mean, you stoner ****.

sticking with the "leftovers"

it's getting pretty good. I've never seen a show deal with ethereal concepts; "energy", spiritualism that feels new and, for the most part, mirrors actual day to day life in all its menial routineness. Still would have preferred some more "down to earth" casting, a previous pedigree for HBO programming. It's a rather trivial complaint but something that always made me appreciate the network that much more. Bad things happen to non-beautiful people, after all.

Still feel like the show will collapse under the weight of its own ambiguity. If I had first heard of it once it concluded(much like Lost) I very likely would never have even bothered, but as for now it's an enjoyable ride.

The leftovers is boring as **** to me and after every episode I question why I even continue/bother to watch it.

haha. I feel you. I literally have to force myself to watch every new episode, but then each time it's a pleasant surprise.

Then next week I gotta force myself again to watch the newest episode. I figure I've invested this much time already I gotta ride it out.

I just hope it doesn't get cancelled too early before some decent answers come out.

I'd be more concerned about it being dragged out for eight or so seasons,at which case I'll have long ceased viewing.

I'm so used to hearing negative things about it. I didn't feel like anyone was watching. I thought viewership was declining as time went on.

Hopefully somebody finally eats the leftovers before the end of the series.

Knowing Lindeloff he might just end up doing something like that.

Having the leftovers disappear to join their loved ones.
