I'm always afraid to recommend it because I've never heard anyone talk about it- but I would recommend Station Eleven. Its post-apocalyptic after a covid-like disease. But unlike every other apocalyptic media it has so much love for people. It has some very sad moments but it's so wholesome. And I loved their little traveling commune.
Yeah, Station Eleven is good. Just the backdrop of "traveling storyteller caravan that has a regular circuit of villages who support them" being a thing that can exist is such a dramatically optimistic (realistic, even) view of humanity compared to the norm.
It gets a lot of hate cause it's pacing is very much like a novel (as it's based on one), so it isn't cliff hanger, binge-eligible trash like most TV.
It is one of the best shows I've ever seen, love it!
