Storyline

- TriviaIt was originally planned as a movie from New Line Cinema in 2007 with D. J. Caruso as the director David S. Goyer as a producer. Caruso and Carl Ellsworth wrote the script and Jeff Vintar did some rewrites. Shia LaBeouf wanted to star as Yorick Brown but turned it down saying that Yorick is far too similar to his Transformers character Sam Witwicky while Zachary Levi, who played the lead in the TV series Chuck, has expressed interest in playing Yorick as he is a fan of the comic book series, even going as far as having his character Chuck Bartowski read the Y: The Last Man graphic novel in the episode "Chuck Versus the Nacho Sampler" and Caruso wanted Alicia Keys for the part of Agent 355 and planning on using a real monkey and not a CGI construct, to play Ampersand. In 2012, Matthew Federman and Stephen Scaia entered final negotiations to write the film after Caruso left the film and J.C. Spink, Chris Bender and David Goyer were attached as producers while Mason Novick and Jake Weiner were picked as executive producers. Dan Trachtenberg was hired to direct the film in 2013 before the film got cancelled.

Featured review
It's starting off great, really amazing concept that's showing so much potential but some of the decision making done by the characters is so illogical. I get that some people can be selfish and childish but after an apocalyptic level event you should change right, a bit? Just a little? The show's doing everything right-ish by me so far, four episodes in, but yorick's character is doing enough to put you off of it. They just need to show us, just once at the least, that he's capable of comprehending the gravity of the situation he's in, sure they can keep his personality traits, being selfish, childish and all they just need to dial it down a bit.
I think it's okay for a show to have a character that'll make you wanna shout at or break the screen but don't center the entire thing around him if that's the case. The show reveals how much the world's dependent on one gender, that's a debate we can have elsewhere, but the problem is the one man left surviving is a blithering idiot with no useful skills whatsoever.
This could be great but it isn't so far, they need to fix a few minor flaws to make everything a little more believable for viewers. It has a good start and I hope they don't ruin such a great concept 'cause I'm such a big fan of dystopian future tv series/movies and they have a potential gem in their hands.
At episode 7 now: In the past two episodes, I see improvements from the previous couple which were aching to watch, however the show's still pretty far off the potential it had in the first episode. The characters still lack depth and the story is still clear as mud so it's hard to tell where they're taking the series or what exactly is going on. It just feels all over the place especially considering how few episodes there is left to change that. Unfortunately this is the last episode I watched but it really was getting better.
