I’ve reached a moment in my life when it’s become all too clear I must rewatch The Leftovers.
I’m not greedy. I don’t need that perfect day at the beach. I just want that miserable Saturday...
They’re not our dogs.
Nobody quits what they’re good at.
when my dude gets a drill & finds the bagel!!!!!
Sometimes you don’t want to keep baby jesus in your truck, well, not your truck, the one the dog killer gave you.
You guys gonna give me my gun back? It doesn’t shoot rocks.
Chief, you need to go back to the truck, close your eyes, and get comfortable. Because I need to talk to the other guy.
Hard to express how masterfully this show has prepared you for every single perfect scene of S1E9 - The Garveys At Their Best.
Wayne asking Kevin to make a wish.
The start of season 2 is the most insane thing ever—deeply grateful to my old and wonderful mom for being fully in this shit with me. LET’S GO LEFTOVERS!!!!
“For what?”

“Attempted murder.”

“What happened?”

“I didn’t try hard enough.”
So the opening scene of s2e2 where he confesses to burying pattie and she confesses to hiring prostitutes to shoot her and jill says ok so do i have to confess to something crazy? It fucking moved me this time around.
I liked Laurie, Kevin. I just like Nora better. Try not to drive this one into a fucking cult.
seeing nora and jill get along makes me feel grateful
I’m fucking it up?

Not yet but you’re showing potential.
holy shit, s2e3 is just a tommy laurie episode??? the balls of this fucking show.
as someone drives over a few GR members, my mom quips, LIKE THE SOUTH DAKOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL!
Liv Tyler just kills this episode. And this also i think might be the single darkest episode of the series
you should get down there. if someone else finds your phone you can say you lost it today.
Mary woke up the very first night we were here.
“i don’t want to kill myself.”

“well kevin you’re certainly entitled to your opinion...”
I can’t wake up alone again, nora says as she breaks out the handcuffs. I love this fucking show.
You zip tied him? He’s got a busted hand! He works at the church. What were you scared of, that he was going to baptize you?
If I’m honest these Matt episodes are kind of my least favorite kind of episodes. Also when this one ends I’m halfway through the series.
I have gotta remark on the fact that leftovers was way ahead of the curve in terms of showing dick on tv—“yeah but always limp” says my mom.
Did they depart or did they die? And to the best of your recollection what were their last words?
there is an indescribably funny and beautiful aspect to kevin telling nora re Patty “I’m seeing someone”
She ain’t in you, Kevin, she’s on you. And if you wanna get her off you, you can’t do it on your turf. You gotta go to hers. The other place.

How do I do that?

You die.
holy shit, you guys, i’m about to watch a little episode called...

INTERNATIONAL ASSASSIN
You pushed a little girl into a well. You don’t want to sing?
(where is my mind on piano...)

What if there’s nobody home?

then you come over to my house.
everyone there and nora saying you’re home
An inaccurate prophecy on August 7 1844, a modern day drone attack in texas, a three year time jump, and a baptism are how we start season 3.
“He’s writing a book about you. He thinks the New Testament is getting old.”
S3E2 has different music in the opening credits...
I’m obsessed with the season 3 move of using different songs over each episode’s opening credits. Just got to s3e6 ‘Certified’ and we started things off with this moment perfect banger.
Is Nora gone?

We’re all gone.
chest cut open, kevin says to kevin:

we fucked up with nora
this rewarch was so moving and rewarding for me. it’s over now.

this is the final exchange before a last shot of the missing birds finally arriving:

It was too late. And I knew you’d never believe me.

Of course I believe you. You’re here.

I’m here.
The last line of the leftovers is literally “I’m here.”

What a fucking show. Also this thread felt healthy. Maybe this is all I’ll do on twitter now. Next up...some other show!

Thanks for indulging me. Love yall.
