The Last Man on Earth is an polarizing drama which will leave you full of emotions, however if you are looking for a comical sitcom you may be in for a disappointment.
The two first episodes feature the main character left alone in empty world on the verge of mental collapse, doing every he can to find another human being.
As the plot reveals itself through the further episodes, his efforts seem to pay off as newcomers come to meet him. The next episodes then go from bad to worse -the more he tries to do everything he can to get along the more he is alienated. As we whiteness him making all the possible wrong decisions, we feel left with a feeling of anger toward all the characters.
The show may sometime seems to parallel so much life situation that's it's become painful to watch. Indeed, social exclusion is hardly an easy subject even presented under a comical light.
However all the brilliance of the show is to transmit such feelings with a touching authenticity.
score 9/10
