The Leftovers REACTION - 1x6

I'm in love with Nora

Jermaine Lee

Glad to see that you enjoy the series. It's something really special and I'm sure you will love those characters even more. Matt and Nora are just so great <3

I may be one of the few , but I never really liked Nora at all . She's definitely not on my favorites list for this show at all .

Yep. That comment does not represent your AOT viewers Jimmy. We don’t claim him/her.

Then don't watch it. It's not like doing both series has affected his AoT upload rate in any way. It's still three episodes a week like it was before he started reacting to The Leftovers and like it would be if he stopped reacting to it. The fact that you want him to abandon this series just because you personally don't enjoy it really makes you seem like an incredibly impatient self-absorbed asshole and reflects poorly on the rest of the AoT reaction watchers. So please delete your comment and try to learn how to be less of a shitty person. Thanks.

Nora is my favorite. Glad you like her. I like a lot of this this show and some of it I do not. I almost stopped watching it a couple times but I kept going. I felt like in the end it was worth it (for me anyways wont say more so as not to spoil anything).

This is my personal fav S1 ep (tho the whole back half picks up the pace). Loved that it was a deep dive on Nora, obv one of the best characters. Same goes for Rev Matt, but just going by my own preferences Nora would be #1 on my "List" at this point, so 106 over 103 for me. Like, if Matt is similar to Locke--the more it seems like God is just fucking with him the more he commits to his sense of purpose--Nora is the inverse: she too suffers greatly, clearly needs to find solace or escape in *something*, but at a moment's notice she'll burn to the ground anyone who tells her that her suffering happened for a reason. It's not that she doesn't want to find some deeper truth, doing so is clearly important to her (just look at her job!) but she will accept no substitutes. She finds both the sugary cereal statistic lady and the self-help author deeply offensive for offering up too-simple 'answers'--whereas Wayne, whether he's Holy or not, basically just tells her yeah I can see you're really broken but "it's better to be a live dog than a dead lion" and offers her a hug. As even the cocky salesman guy says, "It's a great pitch. Who the fuck wants to feel this way?" And just on style points, the episode accomplishes all this character insight and expansion of the show's universe through a hard-to-describe, subtly escalating series of uncanny moments that create a vibe almost like we're in a waking dream, following our protagonist down the rabbit hole of this random hotel full of confusing, symbolic-feeling encounters as she struggles to track down her own mysterious doppelganger. I remember wondering how the show could sustain or recreate that feeling in future episodes... all I'll say is "I can't explain the plot without sounding like a crazy person" Leftovers is almost always the best Leftovers.

Nora is definitely my favorite character. Could never understand how Carrie Coon was never nominated for an Emmy for her performance

Wayne - he saves, but he rapes. He rapes, but he saves.

Nora is so fucking great. I love this episode.
