I'm not quiet entirely sure why this show suck, but it does...

Hey there,

First of all, I'd like to point out I'm not a newbie in the field of TV series. So far I scored Breaking Bad, Dexter, Dr. House, True Blood, Legend of Korra, Game of Thrones, Defiance, Mr. Robot, Justified, Jessica Jones, Stranger Things, Big Bang Theory, Arrow, The Flash, Sherlock, Walking Dead, Agent Carter, Daredevil, Sanctuary, Deadwood and tons of others I can't think of right now.

As for The Last Man on Earth. I was kind of looking forward for this TV show. I really was. Yesterday I finished Season 1 and...not sure what to write about this show, so I'll try my feelings.

I'm totally frustrated from the main character. I easy connect with main/likable characters, and all I did in the first Season was, that I suffered with Phil Miller (the main guy).

The flow of the show is awfully slow and there are only some repetitive mechanics used within this particular show. It always the same thing around. Phil is bad, because...in the end, he shows that he's not that bad, but whole environment is punishing him anyway and we're suppose to laugh about it.

For example, in The Big Bang Theory, there's used the same model, same mechanics but...with one major difference. The "victim" of the punishment is always someone else. And the guy that gets punished gets kudos and the other way around. TBBT is really a great roller coaster of fun and some entertainment. TLMON isn't.

Environment is kind of plain in this series. I kind of understand why, it's almost in every sitcom, but this one. Well, it just yawns with emptiness.

Besides the fact that all that this show gave me was frustration and bored me, for it's duration (~20 mins/part) it felt like eternity. I remember when I was watching Lost, or Agents of Shield. It was like it was never enough for me, even though one part lasted for ~40-45 mins. I spent whole night watching these series, and I thought it was like 10 minutes tops.

TLMON is the exact opposite. I'm in the middle of the show and I'm already checking watch for whether it's not time for me to go to bed, or something.

In general, TLMON could be great, it has a massive potential and as soon as I recover from the initial shock, I'll give it another shot in Season 2 and I may change my rating after, but till that time, TLMON is definite 0 for me, thus 1 out of 10.

I hope I won't disrespect fans of TLMON, or rock-solid base, I never meant to, it's simply my humble opinion aimed towards this TV show.

Cheers!

Bryan
