HBO is making a show about those who didn't get spirited away after God's Rapture? Awesome. Damon Lindelof is behind it? Ehhhhhhh.

Damon Lindelof is getting back to his television roots with Tom Perotta's The Leftovers, a supremely wild novel about what happens to those left behind after the Rapture. The two are currently in talks to adapt this book for an HBO series.
