I was 50-50 on the first episode
Story

However, despite his instincts to continue his isolation, Ish leads a new civilization. Based on the novel «Earth Abides» by George R. Stewart. Referenced in Korman Productions Deep Dive TV Podcast: Earth Abides on MGM+ Deep Dive Episode 1 "Alone" with Dave and Stacey (2024).
The first 30 minutes of that 50 minutes were basically nothing
The premise seemed interesting enough to overlook all the plot holes, and I gave the show the benefit of the doubt. I thought the lights in Vegas would actually stay on, since Vegas is powered by the Hoover Dam. When the second episode came out, things took a significant turn for the worse. It’s like watching a love story/soap opera, cliché after cliché… You’d assume the last 20 minutes were redemptive, but no.
What do the feral cats solve?
The most exciting scene is a brief rat infestation. Does that make sense to anyone? And even if it does, why is it even relevant? And how come this guy has been living alone for a year and hasn’t installed a solar power plant? Or more importantly, why hasn’t he found a house that already has one?
And as a result, nothing happens
Are there really better homes than his old family home, like a house next to a river, a lake, the ocean – all major food sources? Instead, he decides to stay in a random suburban cul-de-sac… We see that he’s lonely, but at the same time he does literally nothing to search his surroundings. He doesn’t have a radio, he doesn’t leave signs, he doesn’t explore. This is basically the most boring character ever..
