LYC: I participate in a bunch of online surveys, after this morning's I can tell HBO is very worried about "The Leftovers" ratings. -- nm - MDH Jul 4, 09:10 14
- understandable. the pace is dreadful -- nm - peglegpete Jul 4, 09:57
- Just finished the survey. It appears HBO is very seriously thinking about dropping a few new series Netflix style. -- nm - MDH Jul 4, 09:35 2
  - I honestly don't understand the Netflix mindset on this. The season dump just cannot stoke any prolonged interest in a show. - Name Withheld By Request Jul 4, 09:40 1

      - I agree...there's something there, I hope it develops a little more -- nm - Remlik Jul 4, 09:30 1
        
        I'm right on the fence of it. Wouldn't say I like it yet, but I'm intrigued enough on its potential. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jul 4, 09:41
