Just finished watching the "Jericho" TV series (CBS, 2006-2008). The basic premise of the show is how the citizens of a small Kansas town handle a nuclear apocalypse (multiple US cities destroyed by atomic bombs) and the rise of a new corporatised and corrupt federal government intent on total control of its citizenry and the subsequent start of a 2nd American Civil War. When we first watched it in early 2010s we were like "it's an interesting story, but it's not likely to happen". But now, the idea presented by the show is no longer so far fetched and at times even seemed a bit too close to the current reality.
