Though he wasn't a side character per say, just another person who survived the apocalypse.

Last night was good, I like episodes that focus on a side character (like Nick Offerman in the Last of Us).

Also - love that Stephen Root is in it (Milton from Office Space, among other things).

I’ve just watched the first episode and was pleasantly surprised to find myself laughing out loud in several parts. I agree that the supporting cast is outstanding. Not sure if that’s enough to keep me watching but I’ll give it another few episodes.

Honestly, the person who annoys me the most is Matthew Rhys! He always has such an annoying voice and cheesy smile.

Who in the supporting cast do you find outstanding? Honestly curious. I feel like it is the Matthew Rhys show. For example, I love the actor who played Joel on Somebody Somewhere, and so far he is completely underused in this show.

Loving this! What a refreshing change - quirky and smart.

It truly is.

I could not get into this at all. I think the genre of comedy horror is just not for me.

I love this show. It’s not at all something I would typically watch, but it’s quite funny and Matthew Rhys is wonderful. The episodes are fairly short which is another plus!

Yes? I’m assuming you’re responding to me, the poster who said he had a weird affectation in this role. Which he does.

I watched a preview and couldn't stand the way Matthew Rhys was talking. He sounds like he has some sort of weird affectation here.

It's very clever, and I will watch anything with Matthew Rhys. I love how they are incorporating tropes in such a tongue-in-cheek way. There are some real lol moments.

Nevertheless, it's not as great as what I was expecting.

This show may work for you!
