THE LEFTOVERS Season 2 starts tonight

[CherylTunt]

On Sky Atlantic, 9pm.

I seem to recall a small but devoted fan base here on MN for season 1! I really got into it.

Only found out because I randomly wondered if there was to be a season 2 and Googled it just now.

Thanks for the heads up!

Already had this on record after seeing a trailer a couple of nights ago.
The last series seemed to wrap up quite nicely at the end. I'm not sure that another series is needed, not that I'm complaining mind.

Watched this tonight and am now thoroughly confused!

Me too!

In fact u watched it a few nights ago but just had a weird dream about it so a bit freaked out.

None of my friends watch this show, I have no one to discuss it with!!

So am I right in thinking Miracle had no departures for a reason? The residents clearly think that's a good thing and makes them special but the show implied that noone was 'good' enough....

So confused!!!

Starting to make more sense now after watching the second episode (plus realised how much of season 1 I had already forgotten!).

Miracle certainly seems a strange place. Loving Patty

bellyrub I am not so sure Miracle had no departures. With all the vigilante attacks and the priest silencing them in church I just do not trust them. Also the girls disappearing maybe some kind of a sacrifice. Or what was that film where people avoided death by not boarding a plane and they were hunted down by fate? As they say in The Game of Thrones "only life can pay for life".

I wonder what the area thing has to do with departures? How did he get in the emptied lake? So many questions.

Maybe there are different dimensions or realities, and he experiences things differently. Patty could help explain it. As the director explained it in an interview - for us the departure is a lot like earthquake for cavewoman. We have no explanation, so we are totally confused, but it does not mean that there is no explanation. Tinfoil hat on: maybe UFOs were beaming people up and that is why location mattered.

I was quite worried when Patty died, as she certainly was one of the most intriguing characters, so I am very happy she is back.

The scene in the laundry van was quite shocking.

So hugs are the way to go?

I was surprised to see this as I thought that series1 pretty much wrapped up OK.

Of course, I'll be watching to find out what happened to the girls.

And Kevin!

At the water with a block tied to him??!!

So was that real?

And the blok saved him from being washed away?

It's a weird place, that's for sure!
