Plot Synopsis
YOU, ME AND THE END OF THE APOCALYPSE is a one-hour, black comedy series that follows an eclectic group of ordinary people in an extraordinary situation: a collision is imminent with an eight-mile-wide comet that's destined to wipe out all life on Earth. There are 34 days until the comet collides with Earth, and some of these misfits are destined to make it to a bunker deep beneath the English suburbs of Slough, about 20 miles west of London, to watch the end of the world on TV. Perhaps the most complex person is Father Jude, a rebellious and foul-mouthed priest who is tasked with being the "devil's advocate" with the aid of his new timid assistant, Sister Celine Leonti. Rhonda, a mild-mannered librarian, finds herself dangerously out of her depth when she is sent to a maximum-security prison for a crime she did not commit. She unwillingly befriends Leanne, an unhinged white supremacist who takes a deeply reluctant Rhonda under her wing. Morally dubious, but intensely loyal, Leanne is a woman uniquely suited to surviving the end times and will prove herself to be exactly the sidekick Rhonda needs. Then there is Jamie, the humble bank manager from Slough who is hopelessly stuck in a rut and still in mourning over the mysterious disappearance of his wife seven years ago. Spurred into action as a result of the impending apocalypse, he embarks on a perilous quest to find his loved one. NBC aired the U.S. premiere of this series on Thursday, January 28, 2016 at 8pm ET/PT.
