Day One Trailer and Plot Details Revealed

The mystery surrounding NBC’s upcoming post-apocalyptic show has finally been revealed. The extended trailer also gives an insight in to the plot which has been said to be a cross between War of the Worlds and Lost.

Well judging by the trailer (below) it looks like all the hoopla surrounding the initial announcement of NBC’s upcoming “TV Event” is founded. It certainly isn’t anything like I’d expected and I must say that after watching the trailer my excitement over the show has increased ten fold. In my opinion (and I know it’s still too early to tell) it looks like it’s going to be one of the most talked about shows of 2010.

Summary:
After a global catastrophe destroys the world’s infrastructures and all but wipes out the planets governments the world’s populations are left to fend for themselves.
The show follows a group of survivors; all residents of a Californian suburban apartment building as they emerge into the chaos following the event. Together they set out on a quest for survival whilst trying to uncover the mysteries surrounding the event that has brought civilisation to it knees.
