TV is Awesome Podcast: The Leftovers S3E2 Discussion Don't Be Ridiculous

Well, RIP Tower Guy/ Platform Dude/ Pillar Man... we hardly knew ya. But we know enough to know that Virgil is not around to help you this time, and we don't think you'll be singing Homeward Bound in that hotel bar. As always, a Nora-centric episode gives us all the goods - lots of discussions and revelations, some laughs, some tears and a LOT of soul searching. Listen as we discuss Mark Linn-Baker as himself! Mostly! Did the scientists actually figure out how to get where the 2% went? Nora and Erika ARE besties! We see Lily, Kevin & Nora maybe aren't as okay as they are pretending, technology is against Nora, and of course, lots of Wu Tang Clan. Also, can holy balls be busted? And of course, we're going to Australia!

TV is Awesome Podcast Discussion: S3E1 The Book of Kevin/ Is This Where the Fucked Up People Live

WE MADE IT! Season 3 Episode 1 where we are getting at least AN answer about why does Kevin keep not dying? A theory... a pretty strong theory proposed by some of his closest peeps. Turns out, his peeps are very interested in the story of how he met Lori (and we're all like, who cares?) because they are writing the Book of Kevin. Matt and friends are convinced Kevin is divine? magic? only in Miracle? This is some big news, especially from newly-bespectacled John who now I guess agrees some weird, unexplainable shit does happen in Miracle. Evie! Birds! Future Nora! Baldie is back! A baptism that doesn't count! And Jill summing up all of The Leftovers with her fabulous greeting:  Is this where all the fucked up people live? 

Yes, Jill. Yes.

TV is Awesome: S2E10 Finale I Live Here Now (Don't We All??)

 Well, well, well... it's the return of the No Name Dog! Finally! We made it to the Season 2 Finale everyone! That's a good time to bring the dog back... and then watch him run off into the night to eventually rule the world (foreshadowing!). Listen as we discuss Kevin confessing to John that he saw Evie the night she disappeared and he knows because he died. Then of course John shoots him. But none of that matters because Evie is on the bridge with Meg's Bomb-Camper! Also, Donna Moss wakes up for real (!), Nora almost loses Lily, Miracle become mayhem, Kevin dies, sings and comes back... again.

TV is Awesome Podcast Discussion of The Leftovers S2E9: Ten Thirteen or MEG!!!!

Well, some pieces are coming together in this episode... big pieces!... some pieces we didn't even know we needed! Meg, we hardly knew ye! Listen as we discuss meeting past Meg and Meg's Mom (!) the day before the departure, Meg's fun coke use, her first trip to Jardin, Psychic Isaac is FOR REALZ*, Meg and Evie eating carrots. Then meeting recent/ now Meg throwing a grenade on a school bus full of kids (*shocked face emoji*), are Meg and Tommy the new Super Couple? Teg? Mommy? (ewwww but maybe appropriate?). Speaking of Mommy, Tommy finally let's Lori have it and calls her out for leaving her family. Lori handled that in the most Lori way ever.

So.Much.To.Discuss!

*Full Disclosure: I had to Google Isaac's name for the millionth time.

TV is Awesome Podcast: The Leftovers Discussion S2E8 The International Assassin is Thirsty

For a show where we endlessly talk about how real the reactions are to the departure, this is an episode that is really, let's just say, out there. But still fantastic! Kevin is dead, in the other world (or AN other world), unknowingly (?) chose to be an international assassin, talking to his dad in Australia through a TV, and cuts his hand (clean that, Kevin!). Dickhead Neil. Why is Donna Moss there?? And little Patti is heartbreaking.

DON'T DRINK THE WATER!

TV is Awesome Podcast: The Leftovers S2E7 Discussion... A Most Powerful Adversary aka Lori at The Gate

 

When you Google this episode, the description reads: Nora has some news for Kevin and Jill, Laurie makes a rash decision, Kevin explores his options to tackle a problem. 

*shocked face emoji* 

*understatement emoji* (if there is such a thing)

I mean... do we just leave it at this and let you be shocked, SHOCKED, dear listener? I say yes, but will leave you with the fact that I counted no less than 5 shocked faces in my notes and many, many more exclamation points than that. I think Ken had just as many! Let's just say WE LEARN SOME THINGS. 


Lori at The Gate is the name of our band

TV is Awesome Podcast: The Leftovers S2E6 - Is Nora a Lens?

In this episode, listeners rejoice! Lisa got a new microphone! In this Leftovers episode discussion... So.Many.Answers! We love it! Pissy scientists, tours through Miracle, girls are still missing, Ericka loses it on the Goat Guy, is Nora an instrument of the devil? *thinking emoji*, rocks through windows, maybe don't leave Kevin with a baby and a comatose Donna Moss? Nora gives Ericka the question treatment and let's just say it doesn't end well. But most importantly, can Regina King and Carrie Coon be best friends in real life, please? 


Grab your drinks and listen here... Cheers!
