While the show can lag at times, it does provide an interesting and often thoughtful look at how we define community, our own identities, and ultimately growing up. Without spoiling it, most of the characters rarely interacted before this untimely adventure, yet have to figure out a way to work together survive. Unfortunately, there are always those unwilling to follow the status quo.
We never think about what we would do without law and order, easily accessible grocery stores, or even our parents to take care of us. How do you tackle difficult issues normally reserved for adults? It provides an insight on how look at society and what a society needs to survive. I would rate it 4/5.
