“Station Eleven” had the unfortunate timing of shooting a series about a deadly outbreak right before the start of the very real COVID-19 pandemic. The HBO Max series shot its episode in January 2020, shortly after lockdown forced the crew to pause filming before resuming a year later. In that downtime series creator and showrunner Patrick Somerville began thinking about what he would have done differently in that pilot, had he known the outcome of the world a month later.

The showrunners either had the worst timing in human history or they knew something we didn't. 😂

Historically, pandemics happen every 100 years. If we would have listened to Scientists, we all would have known.

The timing is what it is. The novel that the show is based on was published in 2014, after SARS(1) and MERS.

This may be my favorite TV series of the last decade. Glad to see it appears to be “trending” according to the HBO app. I’m a fan of Last of Us - but Station Eleven is far superior in every way imo.

My daughter got me to start watching TLOU and I had her watch Station Eleven, it was my third time seeing it and I caught so much more watching it with her (ep 7 is her favorite too)

I think fans of Station 11 should give The OA on Netflix a shot. The first season was soo good in many of the same ways Station 11 was great.

The Leftovers has been my favourite show ever since I watched it the first time (and remained so the subsequent 6 times I've watched it), but now that I've watched this... goddamn, I think we have a tie. And it did in one season what Leftovers did to me in three! Still overlooking the damage from this timebomb of joy detonating right in my face.

There's a scene in episode 7 in which a faceless voice on the television speaks about the pandemic. That's unmistakably the voice of Nick Offerman, but he's not credited. Might never have noticed if I hadn't just before watched the episode of The Last of Us in which he plays survivalist Bill.

You know what else is meta, doing an adaptation of a book around a pandemic about a theater troup that goes around doing Shakespeare around a pandemic. Because Survival is insufficient.
