Earth Abides (season 1)

The world as we know it has been destroyed. A plague of unprecedented power and speed has engulfed the planet, leaving a wasteland and silence in its wake. Civilization that once seemed immutable collapsed under the onslaught of this imminent threat. Only a few survived, thrown to the mercy of fate and the deadly silence. Ish, a brilliant and lonely geologist, awakens from a coma in a world he no longer recognizes. He is alone, without family, without friends, without the rules and laws that once governed life. In the void of a destroyed world, he must find the strength within himself to survive, to retain his humanity and hope in this hopeless world full of fear and uncertainty.rn
