Jeremiah - Krieger des Donners

This show is really quite well done; every episode seems to fly by and leave you anticipating the next. L Perry & MJ Warner are a superb duo in this exciting post-apocalyptic tale. The show is done in such a way that the aftermath of the "Big Death" (a disease that was fatal to all those past puberty) seems plausible, even if the Big Death does not. If you have not watched this show, I highly recommend giving it a shot. You will not likely be disappointed.

I saw the first episode of Jeremiah by accident. I was trying to fix my broken down VCR when Jeremiah started screening on TV. I stopped what I was doing to watch what was happening on the TV. I liked what I saw and sat back and watched the first episode. From that moment I was hooked.

I'm a big sci-fi fan and I had no idea that Jeremiah was even a sci-fi show. It's just by luck I caught it on TV that night. Here in South Australia they have only just started screening the first season but I'm glad to see Jeremiah has made it into a second season. I look forward to seeing the rest of the season. I'm not familiar with the original comic book series Jeremiah was supposed to be based on therefore I do compare it to the comic book series. I take it on it's own merits and what I see, I like, enjoy and hope to see more. A good and enjoyable show.

Glad to see Luke Perry has moved beyond Beverly Hills 90210 (a show I only saw once or twice and despised everything about it. I always viewed 90210 as something of a joke)I never liked Luke Perry when he was starring in 90210 but the fact I like him in Jeremiah is testament to his talent. Luke has done well and I enjoy Jeremiah, hope to see it go on for awhile yet.

I just saw the first season of Jeremiah and I was completely blown away. What an awesome series! This is going to be another "Firefly" cult-like classic. Because it was poorly marketed it didn't get the attention it deserved. I would love to see this series take off again! This would be very well received on the sci-fi channel or any other channel for that matter. It's a shame that it's 2009 and I'm just seeing this for the first time!!! How about a major motion picture?!!!!!!! Malcolm Jamal Warner and Luke Perry were phenomenal in this role together. You wouldn't believe the buzz it's getting amongst all my friends. BRING IT BACK PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I must admit that I like Sci-Fi, but what I don't like are fairy tale sci-fis (Star Wars) or Techy-Sci-Fi (Star Gate, Star Trek-Franchise). I rather enjoyed Battlestar Galactica and Babylon 5 and Jeremiah (which is thought out by the very same Jay Michael Strazynski) has everything of a good classical drama: Action, structure and plot items (short per episode plots and longer plots over a whole season).

In the two seasons filmed (I think they cancelled the show afterwards and even the ending of Season two was rushed!), JMS has again shown his capability of handling TV series in theatrical fashions. We have the classical 3 tiered system of Exposition, Climax and Ending with the weapon showed in the Second Act (I am not going to reveal that one).

The show lacked financial support in the first season, but the second one showed what could have been possible. And I especially liked the focus on an anarchic world trying to find itself and the two major themes: the generational conflict between new and old in the first season and the exploring of fascism and totalitarianism in the second season.

Jeremiah is an American and Canadian funded television show, set in the USA and follows the tale of an end of the world scenario. The main cast are survivors of such an disaster, as they fight to survive. Luke Perry is quite an actor in this show, and really gives a great endearing performance. There is also quite a varied Canadian cast to the show also, who really stand out and who portray their characters well. The premise is quite an original one, due to the fact the genre of post-apocalypse fiction and drama isn't really a big one. The characters draw you in, with their back stories before the disaster and you feel for their struggle to survive. If you are a fan of Jericho, BBC's Survivors, The Tribe or even The Walking Dead then Jeremiah is a great addition.
