Jeremiah	comment	Jeremiah is a Post Apocalyptic television series that aired on Showtime from 2002 to 2004. It was (very loosely) adapted from the French-Belgian comic book series Jeremiah. It was directed by J. Michael Straczynski and starred Luke Perry and Malcolm-Jamal Warner. The series ended after two seasons when JMS quit, citing too much Executive Meddling on the part of MGM, and the network elected not to continue without him.In the early 21st century, a supervirus known as "the Big Death" was unleashed across the planet: highly communicable, short incubation period and one-hundred percent fatal to anyone who had reached the age of puberty or higher. Within six months, the population had been decimated and the only survivors were the pre-pubescent children, who somehow had to rebuild a society they never fully knew. Fifteen years later, one such survivor is Jeremiah (Perry), who travels between the rural, low-tech communities that have cropped up in the intervening years and searches tirelessly for something called "Valhalla Sector", a place his father once spoke of as a possible refuge against the Big Death.During his travels, Jeremiah befriends fellow wanderer Kurdy (Warner), colony leader Markus Alexander (Peter Stebbings) and possible prophet Mr. Smith (Sean Astin), and gets caught up in an attempt to rebuild the United States of America, a brewing conflict with those who'd attempt to seize power for themselves and a possible recurrence of a new and even more dangerous plague.

Jeremiah / int_11a74598	type	Became Their Own Antithesis
Jeremiah / int_11a74598	comment	"The Face in the Mirror" has a flashback which shows several other Valhalla Sector scientists being miserable in the work they do for a budding dictatorship and talking about how they want to stop it. Several of them (a team of psychological warfare experts) escape Raven Rock to set up an opposition government of their own. Most of them end up becoming their own antithesises (assuming they were ever genuinely noble in the first place), but Dr. Monash is as appalled by them as he was by the Valhalla Sector and ends up defecting.

Jeremiah / int_1c7555f1	comment	The Virus making Earth a Teenage Wasteland in the Back Story resulted in there being a lot of kids growing up without birth control, qualified abortionists, or abstinence-enforcing parents, and there are a lot of kids who were clearly conceived when their parents had to have been a lot younger than twenty. Some episodes touch on how frightening and difficult this was for the young parents, such as "Ring of Truth", where a girl who walked out on her partner and baby because she couldn’t handle being a fourteen or fifteen year-old mother wants to re-enter their lives ten years later.

In flashback scenes in "Firewall", Markus's father deliberately exposes himself to the Big Death while going to be with his dying wife so that she can die with a sense of comfort and security. Meaghan (in "Letters from the Other Side Part 2" and Ezekiel's father (in a flashback scene in "Rites of Passage") both take their own lives in an effort to keep the Big Death virus from resurfacing and killing the next generation. The former is a carrier of the virus and the latter is one of its unwilling creators who is being forced to help continue developing it as a bio-weapon.

The Remnant forces of Valhalla Sector badly want to be this trope in season 1 and plan to use their cache of weapons to conquer the country, if not the world. However, their fear of being exposed to the Big Death makes them hesitant to leave their survival bunker. Throughout season 2, Daniel is mentioned as a Shadow Dictator who can inspire cult-like devotion even as he sends hundreds if not thousands of people to labor camps and has his army attack towns in negotiation with his rivals. Daniel turns out to be an Invented Individual, but the true leaders of "his" army, the Founders, are fine with crushing anyone who stands between them and control of the country. Several Villain of the Week regional tyrants, such as a book burning redneck, a puritanical zealot who bans people from touching each other, and a Godhood Seeker with weapons from a military base.

They aren't the focus of the show, but the ones in “Red Kiss” view Jeremiah and Kurdy as angels and the Villain of the Week as a vampire largely due to an arcade game in their community. The finale reveals that many, if not all, of the children born after the big death are displaying higher IQs than normal, which is suggested to be either evolutionary or a divine boon to compensate for the losses humanity has suffered.

"The Bag" features a traveling doctor who only has enough medical supplies to fit in the eponymous bag and claims to have learned basic medicine while watching his doctor father work. He later admits that he lied about actually paying much attention to those lessons but he is still skilled enough to save at least one Imperiled in Pregnancy patient. In "Things Left Unsaid Part 2", one of the former nerds Theo has learning all of the old basic scientific principles has enough general medical knowledge to operate on a wounded Elizabeth after she is shot by Valhalla Sector soldiers, while using the girlfriend/prostitute he was with when Kurdy and Elizabeth showed up as his assistant. He fails to save Elizabeth, who has an hours-old serious wound that a fully equipped team of modern doctors would be necessary to treat.

Quantrell wants to lock down Cheynne Mountain and try to ride things out without making any effort to combat the Big Death. Dr. Alexander is convinced that this won't keep the plague out and wants to let his infected wife inside under quarantine conditions to keep working on a potential cure that he doubts he can find otherwise (not that his chances of finding it anyway are super good). The military forces of the Valhalla Sector want to recreate the Big Death (and a vaccine to protect themselves against it) to kill all of their enemies. Devon, the original reluctant creator of the pathogen, wants no part of this and tries to undermine his leaders/captors, with flashbacks showing that several of the other scientists in the bunker felt the same way.

Kurdy says they can let him and the other man go or neither of them, but the other man is willing to throw Kurdy under the bus and be the messenger. Mr. Smith then emerges from the woods and tries to trade himself for Kurdy, but the main psycho plans to kill both of them anyway. Smith then shares one of his visions from God and makes the killer Go Mad from the Revelation and kill himself and his allies, allowing all of the prisoners to leave safely.

Conspiracy Theorist Wylie discusses real life bomb shelters and government bunkers that became abundant during the Cold War and thoroughly mocks how most of them provided little real defense against a chemical or nuclear attack. He points out that radiation takes a while to go away, most bunkers can only hold so much food, and even if a bunker survives an initial explosion, radiation or airborne diseases can still get in with the air. He notes that there are only three bunkers he is aware of that were really designed to ride out a storm, and at least two of those bunkers, Thunder Mountain and the Valhalla Sector, have no way to stop the spread of the Big Death virus once a single person brings it inside. The otherwise secure Valhalla Sector (which does at least last 15 years after the original outbreak) suffers especially badly since the time-controlled lock on its doors keeps anyone from having a chance of getting out in time.

Jeremiah / int_c82e751f	comment	Unspoken Plan Guarantee: Zigzagged in the two-parter "Letters from the Other Side". The scene cuts away before Lee Chen reveals his plan to end the war between Thunder Mountain and the Valhalla Sector to Kurdy and Meghan. But Kurdy's horrified expression as he leaves the room? and part 1 ending with Lee Chen telling the Valhalla Sector that Meghan (who is really a carrier) is immune to the Big Death and that they will trade her for Markus and the other prisoners, make it obvious what the plan is even though no one says it out loud until near the end of the next episode. Half of the plan, exposing the Valhalla Sector to the Big Death through Meghan works flawlessly, but getting all of the prisoners out beforehand fails after the Valhalla Sector decide to keep Jeremiah and Devon as hostages as the part 1 cliffhanger. The last minute plan on how to keep them safe from the virus is also discussed offscreen, has very few clues to its workings, and goes off perfectly. "The Face in the Mirror" has an unspoken plan with a short-term payoff (the plan is revealed after less than a minute) when Kurdy is talking to some nearby allies over the radio during a car chase and says he has a plan to escape. The scene then briefly cuts to their pursuer before he witnesses Kurdy's plan (to make him unsure which truck his antagonist is in after they rendezvous) work.

Marcus's flashback shows him implementing quarantine measures with a Lack of Empathy and when they fail, he flees to the Valhalla Sector and remorselessly becomes their enforcer.

Michael's own girlfriend helps them by blowing up herself, Michael, and his troops after accepting how dangerous he is. The Army of Daniel, which is is devoted to conquest and the veneration of their mysterious leader, experiences a few defections over the second season. Karl from "Voices in the Dark" and Dr. Monash from "The Face in the Mirror" are both former members of the Army's leadership who have defected and made ties with the resistance movement trying to bring down the regime. However, they also both zigzag the role since they aren't really followers of the cult-like Army's beliefs as they are people who helped start the adulation of Daniel rather than buying into it themselves. Monash even knows that there is no Daniel and it is implied Karl does to. In the finale, a Mook Lieutenant overhears Sims admit that Daniel isn't real but that he doesn't care during a fight with Jeremiah, and leads his command post in a mass Mook–Face Turn.

They use a lot of fancy terms they may not fully understand, have some pretty old medicine bottles, and don't tend to stick around for too long after providing services, but the Reese's remedies and operations do seem to work. In "Red Kiss", apothecary Medicine Joe claims the substandard marijuana he sells is hallucinogenic, libido-boosting, and a blood purifier. He also sells small amounts of blood from kidnapped children as a vaccine against The Virus that killed all of the adults 15 years ago and may return some day. However, given that Medicine Joe was a child during the collapse of civilization, it's possible that. as a result of his limited education, he genuinely believes that his products can do all of that. Jeremiah accuses Joe’s supplier of stoking fear to sell a placebo, although the man claims he is a Well-Intentioned Extremist who has found a necessary cure.

Kurdy says they can let him and the other man go or neither of them, but the other man is willing to throw Kurdy under the bus and be the messenger. Mr. Smith then emerges from the woods and tries to trade himself for Kurdy, but the main psycho plans to kill both of them anyway. Smith then shares one of his visions from God and makes the killer Go Mad from the Revelation and kill himself and his allies, allowing all of the prisoners to leave safely. In "Running on Empty", Sims kills almost all of a party of Western Alliance members who were distributing wanted posters of him and ties one to a tree to leave him to tell the story. The man defiantly says that sooner or later, his allies will kill Sims. This annoys Sims and causes him to muse out loud that there is more than one way to send a message. He then stabs the man to death and pins one of the wanted posters to his shirt to signify who carried out the massacre.
