The Leftovers (S3E01) -- Season Premiere -- "The Book of Kevin" -- 4/16/17
Episode #21 (season 3, episode 1): "The Book of Kevin"
Debut: SUNDAY, APRIL 16 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT)
Three years after Miracle, Texas was overrun by the Guilty Remnant, Kevin Garvey (Justin Theroux) has returned to his role as chief of police. Although he seems to have moved past the incredible events surrounding his "resurrection," the Seventh Anniversary of the Sudden Departure is just two weeks away and many believe another apocalyptic event may come with it.
Written by Damon Lindelof & Patrick Somerville; directed by Mimi Leder.

So much for the Guilty Remnant
Solid start, and the ending certainly adds a big question.

I read that Theroux really did the stuff with the bag. No tricks...

Wow, that ending. Obviously some kind of time jump to yet another post-departed future. Now we'll see what happens to Kevin and if his death wish comes true.
That scene with Kevin attempting the asphyxiation was kind of freaky.
Definitely a lot of questions to be answered in the last 7 episodes.

So far, so good. Looking forward to whatever craziness develops this season.
I do not expect the series to end with any questions answered.

Lindelof's abhorrent use of plot devices and narrative structure is apparently on steroids for this finale year. Such a weird show. I despise the same amount of the show that I greatly admire.
Guess I have to ready myself for some deus ex machina ending where no questions are answered.

I enjoy this show because it's so out of the box compared to everything on tv. It's refreshing, yet I'm glad it's the only show like this cause it's a bit maddening too.
