The show is also masterfully written, acted, and directed with astounding music and cinematography. It combines many of the best elements of some of my favourite movies of all time, like "2001: A Space Odyssey", "Synecdoche, New York" and "The Tree of Life" in its themes of humanity and existentialism, as if all the best aspects of these movies were all rolled into one perfect television series. The show captures all of these themes masterfully in its existentialist representation of humanity and its characters. The show focuses on so many deep and personal themes that I love to find in great works of art, including life, death, depression, anxiety, love, family, meaning and existence.

The series across its three amazing seasons, focuses on two main characters: Kevin Garvey (played by Justin Theroux) and Nora Durst (played by Carrie Coon), as they struggle to keep their personal lives together while facing existential devastation at their losses and the world around them. The Leftovers is a deep and profound series focusing on a global cataclysmic tragedy where 2% of the world's entire population vanish without a trace, leaving the rest of the world in complete and utter devastation. I love existentialist works of art that meditate issues such as life and death, and The Leftovers is no exception. I may have a huge love for other shows such as The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Fargo and Twin Peaks, but with great works of art, I look for intellectual and philosophical depth and stimulation to keep myself thinking. For those who have been left behind, the apocalypse has just begun.In my opinion, HBO's "The Leftovers" is the greatest television series ever created. Terror and chaos slowly spread not only through the plane, but also worldwide as unusual events continue to unfold.
