The Leftovers. Utterly amazing.

We just finished season 2 - which was even better than the first season. I suspect it is not for everyone - I've seen it described as an "existential" work - lots of mysteries open to personal interpretation, few answers. Which is why we love it.

Just amazing acting, plot, soundtrack. And there will be a season 3!
