this is not what a aster egg means bro. this is more of a cool paralel or a detail. not an inside joke or omage to something els

⁠​⁠@@g.henriquecosta983what the fuck is an omage? You mean “hommage”? I don’t think you know that word bro…it’s a French word meaning “tribute”…

Perhaps that's why it's ironic, because Kevin's family remained complete, despite the fact that he is the most cowardly person who wanted to run away from everything. (Their last son with Lorrie has departed)

Caldor3 I have definitely watched it at least 3 times all the way through. And occasionally I find myself in the mood to just watch like “international assassin” or “crazy whitefella thinking” or whatever. Probably the best series I’ve ever seen.

mola55e5 same dude, I bought the whole series on Blu-ray and I pop it in every couple of months and binge the whole thing

Talking about Re-watching it for the first time with my wife. Such an amazing show. Highly Highly underrated.

I've seen it 4 times now and it's definitely better every time. its the best show I've ever seen and likely will ever see

leakykullon5.0 couldn’t agree more i

Wasn't the note tucked into the National Geographic (episode 10) on a page with a map of Cairo and then soon afterwards, Cairo was mentioned, but as a town in the US?

Holy cow, I missed that one. Great find!

in the Niagra Falls recording, young Kevin Jr. also pleads with Sr. to sing The Itsy Bitsy Spider in order to make the thunder and rain stop. That's got to be intentional and if so, amazing. Hell, even as a coincidence that's amazing. I'm guessing they started with that issue and those images and worked backwards around there to build the story kind of like they said they did with the finale.

Yeah I dont think everyone understood that reference but it was honestly hilarious for me how they snuck a random walkabout easter egg in there

The Leftovers really is profoundly well made. I think really people sense that when watching the show. I had a very intense reaction to it, which was what compelled me to try and make sense of it and to make these videos. Thanks for watching!

Awww. Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you! Merci!

Ahh! Thank you so much! It really means a lot to hear that. I'm really enjoying doing this so it's good to know that people are enjoying it as well.

Kirby Yardley Trust me if Leftovers will earn cult following it deserves your vids will have way way more views. These are a must watch for Leftovers fans. Good luck! I hope you'll examine more tv or movies. You're good at it

Thank you!

I apologise for making the above comment prematurely without watching the whole video. Clearly, A lot more research has gone into this than I realised then. Thank you for helping me better understand this show. There is one thing though, that has stuck with me since season 1. In episode 9, the second morning when Kevin is sitting by the road, smoking, a car stops by and one of the four ladies sitting inside asks him "Are you ready?", and then looks positively perplexed when he doesn't understand her. Then after communing with her fellow travellers, moves on saying "I thought you were someone else". Did we ever get a callback to that scene? It seemed like a foreshadowing of something big at the time but just seemed to vanish. Is there something about it the novel?

@@nishantrai8830 I might be incorrect, but believe that that scene was a foreshadow of a significant event happening (the Departure, and the GR being formed since they sensed the end of the world). Since Kevin was seen by the passengers, smoking a cigarette and wearing white, they probably thought he was a GR member, even though they hadn't been revealed publically as GR yet. I assume the people in the car were GR/pre-GR members as I think they were wearing white..

Thank you! I really enjoyed making these videos, so I definitely intend to keep going.

Woah, you have Johan on your profile pic so you're presumably an Urasawa fan and a Lindelof fan! They are the greatest ever. Let's be friends, okay?

I look for his name and the rest is love for him

@@filipgeorgiev1388 Ok

Exactly why people didn’t like it much n it went underrated. Coz people these days want a straight forward fast paced storyline n Leftover is anything but any of that.

@@ibrahimsyed1033 I can't believe I posted that comment 3 years ago. I need to rewatch the show.

PS your videos are so well done. I’m so excited to hear that the 3rd psych of Kevin video is forthcoming! Best Leftovers related videos I’ve found... thank you for delving deeper into this monumental series with us viewers.

I guess those connections don’t really pop up til season 3 so perhaps some mention in your next video?

Thank you for the kind words! I had never seen The Last Wave, so I missed that connection entirely. Thanks for pointing it out. I definitely need to watch that film now.

Your videos are excellent. Can't wait for the following parts. Did you see Fearless also directed by Peter Weir. The Leftovers, especially for the path of Kevin Garvey, borrow some elements from this movie.

OMG. Thank you! I'm currently working on the third and final part "The Psychology of Kevin". After that, I'd like to take a break from The Leftovers and focus on a different TV series as well as films in general. My hope is that I can produce at least one in-depth video per month!

I highly recommend you to do analysis or anything about westworld since its trend right now and its worth it

There really are. I never made the Life of Brian connection. Holy cow!

Kirby Yardley idk if it's ACTUALLY a Life of Brian reference but the name does come up twice and I wouldn't be surprised if it were haha

It's coming along. Very exciting!

Kirby Yardley can’t wait!!!

The departure

Yes, it is. It's from Season Two. The song is called "Storybook".

Thank you!

I'm sorry this took so long. I have uploaded a French translation for this video and will do so for the other videos in the series. These translations were done automatically so there will be mistakes. I hope it works for you and that you can understand them. Thank you! Je suis désolé que cela ait pris autant de temps. J'ai téléchargé une traduction française pour cette vidéo et je le ferai pour les autres vidéos de la série. Ces traductions ont été faites automatiquement, il y aura donc des erreurs. J'espère que cela fonctionne pour vous et que vous pouvez les comprendre. Je vous remercie!

Great! Thank you so much for your reply and for the translation. Even if it's automatic, it will certainly help me to better understand ^^ Thanks again!

Please finish this.

Elaborate?

...Until I dug a little deeper into some of the more obscure dialogue. The hidden elements and themes to this show seem endless.

Haha, yeah. I think I didn't do a great enough job representing the spider concept in the video. I wanted to hold back because it's a major point in part three of my analysis, which I just uploaded. Go check it out!
