It's been awhile since we've heard details about Chris Carter's new show The After. Luckily, some new information on the 13-episode-run series has emerged from TVWise. Check it out:
According to a number of potential buyers who heard the pitch for the series, 'The After' is in fact a thriller set in Los Angeles which explores the coming apocalypse. I hear that the drama begins after a strange event strikes the Earth. There is no government statement on this event and it is shrouded in secrecy and will ultimately lead to a far greater cataclysmic event. The series will follow a core group of characters who try to discover just what has happened and why, while also doing what they must to survive. One source described it as a combination of 'The X-Files' and 'Falling Skies'. 'It’s a mystery series set right at the end of the world', one source tells me. I also understand that, as one would expect with a genre show such as this, 'The After' will be largely serialised and utilise season long story arcs.
We certainly can't wait to hear more, and if you can't either, head over to TVWise to read more!
