The return of "The Leftovers" on HBO has no confirmed airing date yet. It is expected, however, that the show will begin its final season run early next year. Parent Herald reports that the ideal schedule for "The Leftovers" Season 3 premiere would be anywhere between the months of January to April.

"The Leftovers" Season 3 will only have eight episodes, as creator Damon Lindelof previously announced. It won't attempt to answer the missing pieces, such as the fate of the departed. It will be addressing how the remaining characters - the leftovers - will be moving on with their lives.
