JEREMIAH

This post-apocalyptic drama series (Showtime) puts Luke Perry (Jeremiah) and Malcolm Jamal-Warner (Kurdy) together as an elite adventure team to explore communities and resources for a group of twenty-somethings that rule a region 15 years after the “Big Death” (deadly virus) took out every adult on the planet (or so it seems) over the age of puberty. Mad Max type action and the light-hearted interaction between this pair make for quite an entertaining show (if it weren’t for the gratiutous nudity and profanity in just about every episode. Come on, Showtime! Was all that really necessary?). Besides all the characters they meet along the way and the human instinct of survival, there is some real drama played out in Jeremiah’s wrestling with God, and faith issues. This bursts forth in a tirade where he shouts with an angry fist, “What did we ever do to You to make You do this?” While the show’s version of the apocalypse is quite different than the biblical one, spiritual themes abound here – running the gamut from suffering to false zealotry (like when the townfolk prayed to Jason Priestly in episode #3) and cults. Extras are minimal, but the ongoing story doesn’t need much help. [MGM | DV]
