Full-length films about the end of the world are far from rare; this topic has already been played up many times in cinema. With serials, things are a little more complicated - the budget and special effects alone will not be enough to captivate the discerning viewer so that he wants to watch episode after episode.
10th place
The hit parade of series about the end of the world is opened by Revolution, the first season of which was released in 2012. The film describes the end of the world in the literal sense - the world was without electricity, and its inhabitants are forced to forget about technological progress, lighting candles after sunset. The main characters of the series are a young girl and her companions, who are trying to get to the bottom of the truth and return the "light" to their world.
9th place
The series "Terra Nova" touches upon the problem of overpopulation, when most of the living nature perishes from lack of resources, dooming humanity to extinction. People of the future see the solution to the problem in a time portal, and send part of the planet's population 85 million years ago, where they have to build a new civilization, living side by side with dinosaurs.
8th place
You can learn about the possible consequences of an alien invasion from the TV series "Skies Collapsed". The survivors unite and try to repel the invaders, which has been going on for three seasons, and, apparently, this is not the limit.
7th place
Another, however, more successful project on the topic of alien invasion is the series "Visitors". Aliens do not seek to seize the Earth by brute force, but act covertly - having won the trust of people with high-tech gifts, aliens infiltrate the government and large companies in order to gain complete power over humanity.
6th place
Despite the fact that "Under the Dome" is not a series about the global end of the world, it has gained considerable popularity. The transparent dome, which cut off Chester Mills from the rest of the world, causes panic in the city and beyond: no one knows about the nature of the barrier, or whether it will disappear or grow.
5th place
Another series, playing on the serious problems of one town, and the Russian one, is called "Mine". After a major accident at the mine, a series of mysterious natural phenomena begins, after which the military declares quarantine in the city and takes it into a cordon.
4th place
The series "Survivors" allows you to get acquainted with one of the scenarios that awaits earthlings in the event of the emergence and rapid spread of a deadly virus. The main idea of the series is to show what kind of survival in the new world will be, after the death of most of the population.
3rd place
"World After Peace", despite the fact that it was released in 2007, is not forgotten to this day. The series tells about the death of modern technology, electricity and most of the people. The main character, Russell Schumaker, tries to get to the bottom of the truth and along the way keeps a diary, where he writes down all the events for every day spent in post-apocalyptic America.
2nd place
One of the few TV series about a nuclear disaster, Jericho, has become more than successful, and one of the reasons for this success is that the film very vividly describes how a person can behave in not just stressful, but deadly situations when they manifest themselves all the worst qualities of the human race, covered up earlier by what was called civilization.
1st place
One of the most popular themes in end-of-the-world movies is definitely the zombie apocalypse. The series is no exception, and the famous "The Walking Dead", which, largely due to its popularity, have stretched out for five seasons, have become the standard of this genre. Fighting not only with monsters, but also with your own fear is the cornerstone of this exciting series.
