From executive producer/writer Jesse Alexander (Heroes, Lost, Alias) and director Alex Graves (Fringe, Journeyman), Day One tells the story of life on earth following a global catastrophe that has devastated the world's infrastructures.

Beginning with the immediate aftermath of the cataclysmic event, an eclectic band of survivors -- Adam Campbell (Date Movie), Catherine Dent (The Shield), Julie Gonzalo (Eli Stone), David Lyons (ER), Derek Mio (Greek), Carly Pope (24), Thekla Reuten (Sleeper Cell) and Addison Timlin (Cashmere Mafia) -- strives to rebuild society as they unravel the mysteries of what happened and face their uncertain future. The group, all residents of one apartment building in suburban Van Nuys, Calif., embarks on a quest for survival and discovers that hope is found in small victories - and heroes are born every day.

my take
It's got a good pedigree with Jesse Alexander and the premise is very interesting for me. Not sure of Van Nuys, CA being the location where the hope for rebuilding the world resides. It could be very interesting in the vein of Lost and (potentially) the new FlashForward. Unfortunately, I don't think it will be, even though I will be watching...and hoping.
