Aired yesterday in the states, pilot kicked off with the first two episodes back to back.

Watched it, will continue with the series, very good I thought, my sort of comedy.

I've been looking forward to this, i was not expecting a comedy from the trailers i watched last year. Still good though and i'll be watching more.

Quite good and I hope they can keep it up.

Oddly not far from the dreams I keep having.

I thought this was about the old Vincent Price film remade as The Omega Man I think with Charlton Heston and more recently as a Will Smith thing !

Awful

Concept is great & it had 1 or 2 funny moments, but quite honestly I'm amazed it got made.

Yep, stunningly bad. Not even remotely funny.

Surprised at the comments slating it.
I've watched the first three episodes and am really enjoying it so far.

Well that ran out of steam. The main bloke is now just coming across as creepy.

It started off quite funny, but seemed to run out of steam from about episode 5 onwards.

Once the blonde woman turns up the dynamic changes and it seems to be just creepy, as it's just about the bloke trying to sleep with her but always getting spoiled somehow

Just finished watching this series and as others have said, the arrival of January Jones just sent the whole story into creepy-mode.

It got better with the new Phil though, and the ending was pretty decent. I hope they are able to use that ending to good effect next series. There must be an escape pod, so the questions must be whether the people on the ground will find where he lands (or splashes down) and if he can survive the virus.

I love the concept. I would have liked to see Tandy/Phil as a more practical person, to see how he overcame some of the obvious issues about being alone, and maybe spend longer (more eps) in the series exploring that. I'm certain enough comedy could be written into this sort of thing.

A few of us at work have watched this series now which has prompted us all to discuss ways of surviving, where we'd head to, what equipment we'd collect along the way, what car/motorhome etc. Some good ideas. I reckon we're ready for the apocalypse now - although we'd likely not survive the virus in the first place. smile

Phil/Tandy just came across as an angry creepy man and to be honest I would happily kill all of them.
I see that it has been commissioned for a new series, hopefully it will lighten up.
