What does the world look like when everything falls apart? Whether it be from deadly viruses, nuclear fallout or zombie hordes, these series show survival at it's most extreme. Welcome back everyone. Matthew here with Cinegold. Today we've got quite a lot of post-apocalyptic series to look at so let's go ahead and dive in.

It's so beautiful. The first post-apocalyptic series on our list is called The 100. It takes place in a world where most of humanity lives on a massive space station, but when life support starts to fail, 100 prisoners are sent back to Earth to see if it is survivable. The 100 was originally a CW series,

and it does kind of have that Young Adult vibe that was pretty common on the network. But the more you dig into it, the better it gets. The show is constantly changing throughout the seasons and at times it hits some really high points for a post-apocalyptic series. The 100 is not a flawless series but it is ambitious and definitely a great choice for fans of the genre.

There are some good Korean post-apocalyptic series as well. One of those is called Black Knight. It takes place in the future where a comet has hit Earth and made most of the air too polluted to breathe. An elite group called Knights are charged with finding and delivering oxygen and supplies to survivors. Black Knight is a pretty fast-paced series with some very

nice post-apocalyptic visuals. It's far from the best post-apocalyptic series out there, but it's Seoul based setting and unique premise help it stand out a bit from other shows in the genre. One of the more popular post-apocalyptic Netflix originals is called Sweet Tooth. It definitely has more of a fantasy vibe than some of the other shows on this list. It takes place in

a society that has collapsed due to a virus. That won't be the last time we hear that! This virus wipes out most of humanity but new hybrid babies that are half human half animal start to appear leading to numerous questions. Sweet Tooth was based on the best-selling Vertigo comic book of the same name, and has a warm, fairy tale quality that makes it

stand out from your typical post-apocalyptic series. It's very imaginative, and like I said, heavy on the fantasy elements. It's definitely got some of the best production values of any show on this list and it's a solid choice if you want something that is a little lighter. No post-apocalyptic list would be complete without zombies and of course we have plenty of those.

This series is called All of Us Are Dead, and it's a Korean zombie show that again kind of has a Young Adult Teenage angle to it. This is a genre that happens to be quite popular with the younger crowd as we've seen through countless post-apocalyptic series, movies and books throughout the decades. All of Us Are Dead takes place at a school where

students are suddenly trapped due to a zombie outbreak. Pretty simple premise but still very entertaining. It's intense. Action-packed. Emotional and full of heart-stopping moments. It's the classic outbreak story with a youthful twist and one of Netflix's best zombie series. Next up is a Danish series called The Rain. It's about a virus that is carried

by rainfall causing everyone to avoid getting wet at all costs. The Rain is a pretty moody, twist-filled series that adds a Nordic spin to the post-apocalyptic genre. The world here is eerily quiet sometimes and turning something as ordinary as rain into something so threatening is a pretty fun wrinkle to the classic genre.

The next series is probably a little more apocalyptic than post-apocalyptic. It's called Into the Night and it's about a sudden cosmic event that makes exposure to sunlight lethal forcing a group of passengers to hijack a plane in order to stay ahead of the sunrise. Into the Night is pretty heavy on the mystery/thriller elements with plenty of

twists making it a pretty fun watch. The plane setting definitely adds a sense of urgency as the survivors are literally racing the Earth's rotation. It's definitely a bit different than the other shows on this list but I think a lot of post-apocalyptic fans will really enjoy it. Next up is a Brazilian series called 3%. It's set in a world that has devolved into two extreme

zones. One is devasted and overpopulated. The other is a wealthy and clean utopia. In order to join the utopia, people have to pass a cruel series of trials known as The Process, in which only 3% make it through. This series definitely leans more into the dystopian genre, although it does take place after a global collapse making it technically post-apocalyptic.

It's more of a psychological series than action but it's really smart and I think people that are into sci-fi, dystopian or post-apocalyptic genres can find lots to enjoy here. Next is one of the best zombie apocalypse series on Netflix. Is there anywhere that's safe?

This is Black Summer, a spinoff of the show Z Nation. It follows a group of strangers in the early days of a zombie apocalypse as they try to survive the madness. What helps Black Summer stand out from the pack is just how relentless and brutal it can be. It really feels like no

character is safe and it's all about survival, stripping away the melodrama and big speeches in favor of pure post-apocalyptic panic. It's gritty and every moment feels dangerous. Black Summer is definitely not for the faint of heart but it is one of the must see zombie series on Netflix. Next up is a pretty unique German series called Tribes of Europa. It's set in the

year 2074 after a mysterious global blackout and it follows three siblings who get caught in a violent struggle between rival micro-nations fighting over a mysterious cube. Tribes of Europa definitely has a strong sci-fi aesthetic with echoes of the series Dark and The 100. It was pretty short and unfortunately it got cancelled after only one season but if

you want something a little different, you might find it worth checking out. The most recent series on this list came out just this year. It's The Eternaut, an Argentine series based on the classic comic book of the same name. It's about a mysterious snowstorm that sweeps across Buenos Aires killing everyone it touches. The survivors

must band together to stay alive and figure out what's going on. The Eternaut is a slow-burn series with a lot of sci-fi and mystery elements. A lot of the fun of this series is just trying to figure out what caused the snow to become deadly and you watch the mystery unravel over the six

episodes. If you were a fan of The Eternaut you will be happy to hear a second season is coming, and it promises to dive even deeper into the sci-fi mysteries teased in Season 1. Our next series is a Korean apocalyptic horror show called Sweet Home. This series kind of feels like a zombie show but instead of zombies the people turn into horrific monsters that

reflect their innermost desires. Sweet Home was a pretty big hit on Netflix becoming the first South Korean show to ever hit the Top 10 in the US. It's definitely one of the weirder shows on this list but in a good way, blending horror, survival and some unpredictable twists. It's got an intense atmosphere and some pretty cool monsters. Sweet Home is definitely worth checking

out if you like your post-apocalyptic worlds with a heavy dose of horror. Our next series takes place on a train that never stops, forced to keep moving through a world frozen in a permanent ice age. This is how we survive. There are those who have... And those who suffer. This is Snowpiercer, an adaptation of the French graphic novel that was also made

into a 2013 movie. Snowpiercer is really about how the train is divided by class, giving some survivors much better lives than others. Honestly, the movies starring Chris Evans was probably the better version of this story. But if you watched that and want to see more of that world explored, the series Snowpiercer is a solid pick.

And last but certainly not least is one of the most popular post-apocalyptic series of all time.

This of course is The Walking Dead, the zombie apocalypse series that spanned nearly 200 episodes and numerous spin-offs. If you're in the US you can find a lot of those spin-offs on Netflix, the best of which is probably The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon. But the main show is in every region and to say it's a must-see for post-apocalyptic fans is an understatement.

No show more consistently delivered on intense survival drama and brutal world-building episode after episode. Few shows embody post-apocalyptic survival like this one, from its bleak landscapes to its ever-shifting threats. The Walking Dead is a post-apocalyptic icon and the gold standard of what the genre can be. If you're still craving more end-of-the-world chaos, I've got another video covering the Top

10 Post-Apocalyptic TV Series across all streaming platforms, not just Netflix. You can find that here. And once again thanks so much for watching everyone. I will see you again soon.
