I still can’t get the finale of The Last Man of Earth out of my head. After all that speech-giving and piss-taking and I’m Not Saying Goodbye To Him Again – ing Mike dies (well, almost certainly dies) anyway, which is my least favourite kind of fictional death and makes me terribly sad. I never even meant to become invested in any of those people; I hated a lot of them not so long ago. Sigh.
Seriously though, having a whole series about the main character and his presumed-dead brother reuniting only for the brother to die two weeks after the reunion? And just as he was striking up a relationship with someone else who also deserved some happiness? I don’t think I’ve ever seen an apocalypse show be quite that cruel, and this one’s a friggin’ comedy.
