'Greatest TV show of all time' is perfect binge-watch and 'genuine masterpiece'


Fans have been raving about an incredible series which has been hailed as "the greatest of all time" and is available to stream now. Based on Tom Perrotta's 2011 novel of the same name, The Leftovers takes place three years after two per cent of the world's population mysteriously vanishes without a trace.
It follows a group of people from a small town in New York as they try to rebuild their lives as they struggle to adjust after "the departure". The series was created by Damon Lindelof and Perrotta and features an ensemble cast including Justin Theroux, Amy Brenneman, Christopher Eccleston, Liv Tyler, Margaret Qualley and Carrie Coon.
Despite receiving widespread acclaim and earning nominations for a number of major television awards, critics believe The Leftovers was under-recognised during its run.
The show aired on HBO for three seasons between 2014 and 2017, ending when the creators felt it had reached its natural conclusion.
TikTok star Eccy Reviews, who uses his platform to share must-watch movies and shows, described it as "one of the greatest pieces of television in history" as he urged viewers to stream it.
He said: "Not many shows if ever have reached this level of greatness because this is truly one of the greatest pieces of television in history. There's a generally whole collective that think this show is the greatest of all time. If you're someone who has seen it, I bet you'll agree."

An IMDb reviewer penned: "I started this show because of the interesting premise (and partly because of Damon Lindelof). I love to watch movies and series with complicated storylines.
"I have never been so emotionally invested in a show and its characters like this, ever before. It's the compelling storytelling, and the great acting, that makes it so good. Yes, we do not get satisfactory answers to all the questions raised, a lot of things don't seem logical; but it's not the kind of show to be logically nitpicked. It's a show whose magic needs to be experienced to be fully appreciated.
"This show has made me immensely sad. But I've never felt so happy to experience grief. This show is a genuine masterpiece. Not perfect, but it's the imperfection that makes it one of the best things ever put on television."

Another echoed: "The Leftovers is not only one of the most underrated TV shows of all-time but it's one of the best tv shows of all-time! It takes place three years after the disappearance of 2% of the world population and follows the lives of people in a small town near New York and how they cope with the fall out of the event and try to figure out what happened to their loved ones.
"I have to admit that it's not for everyone, if you're looking for a fast pace show with a lot of action then this isn't for you. This is one of the best written & acted shows of all-time. All you have to do is read through the reviews to see how loved this show really is.
"If you haven't seen this amazing show yet then do yourself a favor and go watch this as soon as possible!"
The Leftovers can be found on HBO Max, NOW TV and Amazon Prime.
