1. I watched it and really liked it a lot.

It’s weird and different, which made me like it all the more.

I believe some of the cast from Watchmen were in Leftovers as well. But I also haven't seen it...

4. I was very triggered by the people in white who

didn't talk and smoked constantly.

I never understood what their point was, and just wanted to do violence to them!!

7. Very good, very depressing

The entire show is a meditation on grief and what it does to people. I started watching it about a month after my father died not knowing much of what it was about. It can be pretty intense.

I recently attempted to watch it again with my partner, having a few years removed. I wondered if I'd see it/enjoy it with a different mindset. He tapped out early on.

I think it's one of the best shows ever made, but it's not for everyone.
