Is anybody else watching this remarkable new series on HBO Max? Talk about timing! It shows what happens when a virulent strain of flu wipes out 99% of the human population, both in the immediate aftermath and 20 years later. Fascinating to see the new strains of civilization among the survivors.

It was a little bit confusing to me, popping back and forth between the present and 20 years into the future, but I found it very understandable on a second viewing. Beautiful cinematography and acting, and obviously more than a little scary in these times.
 
No, I haven't seen it but I do find movies that switch time between the present or the past/future very confusing. Just the present is confusing enough for me!
 
I have not heard of it, but I will definitely record it. We were watching Hot Zone: Anthrax but got bored with it. Thanks for the recommendation!

Let me know what you think. I didn't read the book, so I have no basis of comparison.

Okay we watched Episode 1 tonight; I liked it quite a bit but Huzz didn't (but he doesn't like much of anything). I'm going to continue watching it on my own. I'm embarrassed to say that I don't remember enough about the book to know how closely it's following; all I can remember is I did like the book. šŸ˜„

I searched this on HBO via Directv and nothing came up. Could this be on HBO Max?

Yes. I've only watched 2 episodes so far but like it. In Ep. 2, they had an actor who's one of my favorites & I don't get to see enough of & hope they have him in more: Enrico Colantoni (Galaxy Quest and Elias in Person of Interest).
