It the book, a metor destroyed civilization, but prior to that, a bunch on people were frozen and shot into space. A sentient spaceship picks them up and revives them. Stuff goes from there. In this pilot, apparently, the main characters are the last survivors, still on earth, from some unnamed (so far) apocolypse. And also there are bad guys (who we don't see yet) that can seem human for a while. Also, the show seems a dark comedy, and the 'humanness' of the characters are emphasized (no super athletic people, no genius scientist, etc.) Ok, so it's based on an sci-fi book.

Reminds me very much of a movie some friends made years ago about a group of plague survivors in San Francisco and how they dealt with day to day living. There were no zombies, but there were the "wild" people who shunned the groups living in the city and became unsocial psychopaths living off the land in the mountains. The people had to make the best of salvaging a slowly decaying world. Anyway, great show premise since it tightly encapsulates human nature, desire and survival instinct. I wish a thoughtful, quality sci-fi show like this could make it on the air. That was awesome.
