Mine is Station Eleven. This show is finally getting some love now and I am really glad because very much unlike anything I have ever seen in post apocalyptic storytelling.
Its an optimistic and hopeful take on a world ending scenario which is amazingly refreshing and the way it chooses to priorities personal experiences of people over scale is brilliant.
Its not like there aren’t any dark aspects to it its sad, heartbreaking and downright brutal even but the way it balances those aspects with a more optimistic worldview is commendable and it never feels unearned.
