This is a post-apocalyptic show about America in a post-nuclear event, often with a daytime soap feel. It is somewhat entertaining, but exploits the suffering and death of women as a plot device. By my count, established female characters are murdered at a rate of roughly 5:1 compared to male characters. Women only exist in this universe to support the activities of men, and often disappear without much explanation at all once they can no longer support those activities and are abruptly brought back when it suits the men's storylines. Overall, had a lot more potential and ended up being pretty disappointing.
