He soon meets up with Kurdy (Played by Malcom-Jamal Warner) and they discover "Thunder Mountain" an old army base being operated by former children who survived the plague and took over operation after the adults succumb to the virus. Thunder Mountain has been spying on the remains of the world and how the population outside their walls are surviving and they will have to make a choice to join them and help them with the resources they have or to become increasingly introverted.

This was a great series. It only lasted for two seasons but it was truly a Post Apocalyptic television classic. Throughout the series you can observe that there was not a lot of funding for effects but, the scenery and backdrops are amazing and the premise behind the series is excellent. Is a fun watch and keeps you thinking from one episode to the next.

0 #2 liz 2010-05-11 02:28 Loved this show. Only two seasons which forced them to rush through the end of the series in order to tie up some loose ends but overall I think it was pretty great. The first episode gave me some real hope. I thought we might get to see some interesting conceptions of what a society that developed over 15 years with no adult influence (only the perspectives of children) would look like. Unfortunately, that didn't really play out for the most part. But still, I like the direction they took it. Quote
 
 
0 #3 Rockatansky High 2011-10-03 04:57 This show was pretty good. Interesting ideas floating around, right down to things like canned food for currency, much like boy and his dog. The episode guest staring Jason Priestly, is pretty intense acutally. 9/10 score Quote
 
 
0 #4 ElGooch 2012-01-02 17:48 I enjoyed this show, and had not heard about it until it showed up in my netflix cue. I decided to watch it and it was a good show.

I agree with Liz, I too was looking to see what direction they would take a society that had been formed by children with no adults left in the world. Good show for anyone who is a fan of the PA genre. Recommend giving it a watch.
