Yesterday's No Tomorrow

If you are looking for a light end-of-the-world story, maybe the CW's new comedy No Tomorrow is for you.  Premiering last night, the show takes Evie, a warehouse worker with a dead-end career and odd boyfriend, and puts her up against Xavier, a free spirit who believes the world will end in eight months. 

As expected, funny antics ensue and even a few surprises pop up (I will not spoil it for you).  Here is the trailer.  It gives a lot away but not everything.

We seem to have plenty of shows about the end times with asteroids, demons, natural catastrophes, and more (check out SyFy's Aftermath for all of the above).  At least this show uses it as a device for greater introspection.
