TV is Awesome Podcast: The Leftovers Season 1 Finale Discussion, a.k.a The Big Kahuna of Episodes!

 

Here it is... what we've been working up to all season long: where everything works out great and everyone is so happy! What the Guilty Remnant do is a gut punch (and also a face punch and probably a groin punch) and causes a civil war in Mapleton, Jill almost dies, Kevin saves the day, Nora is going to end it all but then finds a baby... and all of this happens AFTER Matt helps Kevin bury a body and Holy Wayne grants Kevin a wish before dying in a diner bathroom stall. 

What we're saying here is... a LOT happens. 

Buckle up and listen below! 


TVisAwesome: The Leftovers Season 1 Finale... The Big Kahuna of Episodes!!


The most horrific moment on television, hands-down.


What a happy ending looks like on this show, I guess.
