frickING HILARIOUS!

The fake excitement and look on his face when Carol accepts his marriage proposal at the very end of the 2nd episode was priceless. That killed me.

There is so much potential with this show. It could go in a multitude of directions.

Plus, we all know that they aren't the last man and woman on Earth. Imagine how Carol would act if all of the sudden another chick showed up, a chick who was actually hot and down to frick. Imagine how he'd act!

Imagine he and Carol having children, the show flash forwards a few years and they are taking Griswold type trips across the country.

On a side note, how terrible would it be to realize that Carol could very possibly be the last woman on Earth. That would be a nightmare.

Questions is: Would you?

I agree. It was well done. I think January Jones is in upcoming episodes. I am sure she will appear right after they are "married".

I haven't gotten around to this one yet but I intend to. Based on the trailers I have one question. Where are all the bodies?

I was hoping they would discuss the ridiculousness of 2 people continuing an entire species. Who would their kids mate with? Each other? I thought for sure that would be brought up by the guy.

I wondered quite a few things:

1. Where are all the animals? Not even a single insect anywhere.
2. Of all the places on the continent to choose from, why choose the desert, especially when lacking power for the A/C? I can hardly sleep in Baton Rouge during the summer without A/C. I would employ a bird migration pattern to always be in a comfortable environment without power.
3. How does he have an endless supply of gas?
4. He will starve to death pretty soon if he does not figure out how to grow fruits and vegetables, which I cannot imagine being easy in the desert. What foods lasts more than a couple of years unfrozen except honey?

I loved it. It definitely reminded me of this Key and Peele sketch though.

Looks like he was from there and wanted to go back home. Wouldn't you in case you found a friend or family member still there? It would also be easier to live in an area you knew pretty well so you knew where to get resources.

3. How does he have an endless supply of gas?


That would be easy to explain. With a trash pump and a generator he could easily tap into the tanks in the ground at gas stations and being the last man on earth that would give him more than enough gas to last a long time.

Canned foods. Several of which last more than a few years.



You're really overthinking a comedy on network TV.

Seriously I never thought about any of those things because that's not what the show is about. Save the realism for serious shows. Just make me laugh and I'm happy. High hopes for this show

I am a Christian, but that does not mean I throw all logic and scientific knowledge out of the window. My parents are devout Protestants (I am Catholic) and they truly believe Adam was made from clay and Eve from his rib. When I puncture holes in the theory, such as the fact Adam and Eve had 3 sons or who would they have mated with, they just tell me "God provides." Very frustrating.

It is a fun thought exercise. I love the concept and like to think about what it would be like in real life.

I was hoping the guy would go into different scenarios to play out the idea of repopulating the human race for comedy's sake. What if they had only daughters? If he was really committed to continuing the species, he would have to do some disgusting things. And then what if those daughters only had daughters? He would become Craster from Game of Thrones.

I watched both episodes last night. Thought it was very original and great.

Like anyone that watched the show I also wondered where all of the bodies were but this is a comedy and the creators obviously just ask you to look past that.

As far as the survival scenario, without any threats such as zombies or other humans, a person could live out their entire life very easily. In this universe, nothing appears to be ransacked. He has pretty much the resources of the entire planet at his disposal seemingly untouched. Food? Those prepper food buckets last 25 years. All he would have to do is find a distribution warehouse for those things to live near and he would be 66 years old before he ever had to worry about a meal. Gas would go bad in a year or two which would limit his transportation options but other than that he'd be set.

Essentially this is Hollywood's way of poking fun of the Adam and Eve story in a lighthearted innocent way that doesn't offend the Christian majority.....and I'm okay with that (and I'm a Christian).
