The Leftovers
“We're still here.”
Creator
Damon Lindelof, Tom Perrotta
Three years after a Rapture-like event vanishes two percent of the world's population without warning or explanation, the residents of a small New York suburb try to carry on amid unbearable, unresolved grief. Police chief Kevin Garvey struggles to hold his fracturing family and town together as cults, prophets, and false comforts fill the void left by the departed. Adapted from Tom Perrotta's novel by Damon Lindelof, this haunting, ambitious drama is less concerned with where the missing went than with the raw, often unhinged ways the living cope with a mystery that offers no answers.

Pilot
Three years after millions of people – some 2% of the world’s population – vanished into thin air, residents of Mapleton, NY weigh the pros and cons of a “Heroes Day” tribute to the local “Departed.” Attempting to maintain a sense of normalcy in his strained community, police chief Kevin Garvey faces additional challenges at home with his daughter, Jill, who’s lost in a cloud of apathy with her friend Aimee, and son, Tom, who has gravitated to a cult led by the charismatic Holy Wayne. Also of concern is a silent, white-clad group of chain-smoking men and women called the Guilty Remnant, who team up in pairs to stake out people and places around town. As tension in Mapleton escalates, the lives of Laurie, an unexpected member of the Guilty Remnant, and Meg, a recently engaged young woman, converge.
