The Leftovers (2014–2017)
6/10
They ended it as well as they could

But they lost their way with the characters. A lot of interesting conflict and and recognizable human emotion in the first season. You felt for these people in a world that no longer made sense.

But in season two and season three...it was like they didn't know how to sustain the world nor solve the riddle they had created. So they added in some strange and not psychologically sound or convincing experiences for some of the characters to undergo, along with huge swings of personality that seemed to come out of the need for dramatic convenience more than organically from good writing or authentic character development.

Biggest problem was they made some of the characters stupid...which was a cheat to the audience.
