HBO’s ‘The Leftovers’ Leaving Max Streaming Service This June

LOS ANGELES, CA — HBO‘s critically acclaimed series ‘The Leftovers‘ will be removed from the Max streaming service on June 3, following a previously scheduled exit on April 11 that was later delayed.

Based on Tom Perrotta’s 2011 novel, ‘The Leftovers’ premiered on HBO in 2014 and garnered significant praise from both critics and audiences. The series explored themes of existentialism and grief in a world where two percent of the global population mysteriously vanished in an event termed the ‘Sudden Departure.’

Fans have expressed their disappointment with the upcoming removal, taking to social media to share their thoughts. “It’s heartbreaking to see ‘The Leftovers’ go,” said longtime fan Annie Roberts. “It’s such a profound series that resonates on so many levels.”

The series centered around the Garvey family, particularly Chief of Police Kevin Garvey, portrayed by Justin Theroux, who struggles to maintain his family and community in the wake of the catastrophic event. Other notable cast members include Amy Brenneman, Chris Zylka, Margaret Qualley, and Liv Tyler.

‘The Leftovers’ spanned three seasons and a total of 28 episodes, taking viewers from the fictional Mapleton, New York, to locations such as Texas and Victoria, Australia, in its final season. Throughout its run, the show maintained a strong following, holding a 91% ‘Fresh’ rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes and a 90% approval on its user-generated ‘Popcornmeter.’

Despite its fanfare, the future of other beloved cable dramas remains uncertain. Similar to ‘The Leftovers,’ the fate of Taylor Sheridan‘s ‘Yellowstone‘ is also in question amid shifts within Paramount Network.”
