It's always reassuring when the creator of one of television's most popular, unpredictable dramas voices concerns about the U.S. president, isn't it?
Damon Lindelof, co-creator of。 Lost。 and HBO's The Leftovers -- a show that focuses on a mysterious disappearance of two percent of the global population -- recently shared some uh, terrifying thoughts on the 2016 presidential election and Donald Trump's victory while at Paris’ Series Mania TV festival.。

Thanks for signing up!。 Weeeeee!。When asked if the 2016 presidential election changed his perception of thethird and final season of The Leftovers, Lindelof reminisced on the confidence surrounding Hillary Clinton's potential victory and the feeling that those results would take the world "a step。
away 。 away。from the apocalypse."。 "We wrote the show between January and August of 2016. While there was spirited political conversation at all times," he explained, according to。Inverse 。
. "But that idea in。
The Leftovers 。
is that the Sudden Departure forced everyone to reevaluate the world they lived in and suddenly understand that things were not as stable as they seemed. They were surprised, and unpleasantly so."。"I think all of us experienced that sensation on the evening of Nov. 8th. I do want to say that’s the way we feel, but a large part of our country was celebrating. I think that’s an interesting idea too — how disconnected we were to what was really going on," he said.。
When similarities can be drawn between fictional, apocalyptic television shows and America's political reality, it's all pretty terrifying, sure -- but don't worry, because despite politics, Lindelof still thinks an IRL apocalypse is a ways away. 。

" 。
Are we closer to the apocalypse now than we were a year ago? I don’t think so," he said. "I’m not a fan of Donald Trump by any stretch of the imagination, but one of the things we tried to say in the third season of the show is that every generation of humans thought the world might end while they were alive. That’s kind of narcissistic and interesting." 。
