Simply amazing! I had very low expectations of this show because I haven’t been very impressed with a lot of the new shows coming from ITV and the BBC. However, this show has changed my perspective. The actors are phenomenal, the action scenes are terrific and the plot and script are amazing. It is by far my favorite post-apocalyptic television series of all time. The one and half hour pilot is well worth a look to see if you will enjoy the series.

0 #1 Shaun 2009-07-09 19:18 I totally agree with your review and rating, I've also been really impressed with this series. A lot of people have been unfairly comparing this to the 1970s original, but I think this has been a great show in its own right and it's more appealing to a modern and younger audience. The final episode was fantastic by the way I'm looking forward to seeing how things develop in series two. Quote

I would call this a must watch for PA fans. It focuses on the survival aspect of a group of people that come together and try to survive. Great show!

The first episode immediatly presents you an impending pandemic scenario. I thought "bloody hell, just downloaded almost 29Gb for nothing". I like to be introduced to it almost without noticing, as if I was there, experiencing it. Yet, somewhere along the way, the 1st episode narrative manages to put you on the right spot, discontinuing the inicial disconfort.
Glad I downloaded it. If you're into the genre it's a must see. Just like in "Jericoh", the black guy's the coolest.
