Best show on TV today, hands down.

I just accidentally stumbled upon it while looking around for a new show to watch on the firestick. I don't know if it's even available in America right now otherwise. It's obviously a UK made show, and during any of the end-credits you hear a voice over from a UK personality talking about other UK shows, but because Jenna Fischer, Megan Mullulay and Rob Lowe are also main characters I have to imagine that it's also airing somewhere in the US now too. Even Megan's husband Ron Swanson made a priceless cameo and we're only 4 episodes in.

(I just found out now while looking for a preview that it was inserted mid-season into NBC's lineup this year. CHECK IT OUT!!!!!)




There's no compilations of Rob Lowe's best moments yet, so I'll just post a fancam recording of the Theme Song instead.

I've never seen anything like it before. It should be such a dark and scary show, but somehow it's one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. The best part to me is how it has taken both UK actors and US actors, threw them in a blender and now apparently it's airing in both countries simultaneously.


Me personally, I think Rob Lowe steals the show. I've never disliked him in anything except for maybe his character in Wayne's World, but it's like he was born to play this Anti-Establishment priest.

Even though he works for and inside the Vatican, his very first line in the show is "Who the f*** are you?", to which he later has to extrapolate that he was talking about his "potty mouth" when apologizing for his "language" to the woman interviewing to be his assistant who apologized back that English wasn't her first language.

The entire cast is perfect and the premise is great.

The only downside is that there is only 34 days until the end of the world, and that's established in the first 10 minutes of the show. At the very most, this show could only ever see 2 seasons and may even wrap up after only one.

The only way they could take it further is to break everything in the back story to continue making a buck, and that would just be sad. One perfect season could be great though. Especially to anyone who wished that there was only 1 Perfect Matrix Movie or only 1 Perfect Season to the original Heroes.


Seriously guys and gals....

Don't miss this one. :)
