Love in the Apocalypse (2024)

short but packs an emotional punch (watch suggestions)

Overall: from the title alone we know this isn't going to be a typical romcom. I would have rated it higher if they had taken out the needless drama and just centered it on the two characters. 40 episodes about 2 minutes each on the Vigloo app. Episodes 1-3 are here https://www.vigloo.com/video/15000018?season=15000018&episode=1 ; 1-5 are free in the app but on August 5th 2024 Vigloo made all 40 episodes free to watch for 24 hours which is when I watched it (did not need to make an account, just downloaded the app and watched it, there weren't any ads).

Watch Suggestions (if you want to remove most violence/in my opinion needless drama)
- stop watching at episode 11 1m55s
- skip episodes 12-13
- watch 14-15 if you'd like to see one protagonist fight otherwise skip
- skip episodes 26-28
- episodes 29-30 are flashbacks
- skip episode 31-32
- end episode 34 at 1m30s
- skip episode 35
- skip episode 39
- watch episode 40 at 44s to the end

Content Warnings (if you watch all episodes): attempted murder, kidnapping/held against will, violence, past trauma

What I Liked
- the mom was awesome
- their relationship development/sweet moments

Room For Improvement
- needless drama, they should have just focused it on the 2 protagonists as there was enough drama with the set up
- it pulled me out of the realism that there were almost never any other people around
- open ending

A DAYDREAM OF A GAY IN APOCALYPSE

Why did I say that ? coz this is every gays day dream to be dating until the end of the world, pertaining to the story here. the idea was quite a wild one like, who made this idea ? it is interesting and so exciting how will they put through it in a show, and I must say due to a very short run time and annoying reel format it was not done properly, but the show was good and simple and off course packed with very good looking male leads , but I felt like it could've been better in terms of romance , it is understandable that they will be able to just date in few days coz it will be the end in the story that is why it seems lacking of romance but if they have not included the ex Boyfriend thing here and focused on leads development or the leads fore story rather , there would be even enough time somehow for them to know each other. Very few cast ? so what ? so what if there is only 2 of them as cast? it is their story after all. and the ex boyfriend was kinda Psychopath and creepy being, it was annoying.
The kiss was not shown properly and not done properly, they should've kissed while drinking a beer , that would be better in my opinion.
and above all I hated its format and you know why.
just a so so watch. leads deserves better
