Daily Life Before Armageddon
If you're looking for an exciting "action/disaster" drama, this isn't it. It's not about a cast of characters attempting to save Earth from an imminent asteroid strike that is certain to occur within 200 days nor is it about surviving the aftermath of that strike. The asteroid cannot be diverted from its path and Armageddon is certain. Rather, this drama is about how a group of people live their lives knowing that their time is limited. The first three episodes have many flashbacks and flashforwards from "real time," that are confusing. But if you can get past that, the series can be lovely, violent, disheartening, hopeful, sad, funny, and filled with joy. Just don't expect any superheroes to soar in and save the day! This story of how ordinary people face extraordinary challenges is most satisfying and the acting is marvelous.
