I had it on last night while working.  I didn't pay attention to every
second of it, so I might have missed something, but I did find it
interesting that in the end everything kinda went back to the way it
was and the "typical white american family" opened back up their gas
station.

There was no new initiative to find alternate fuels, no weird
underground economy to supply energy and transportation in some other
way.  I know that the whole point of the movie was that running low on
oil in America would do more than just make driving to work more
expensive, but I have a little more faith in American ingenuity than
what they showed.  I guess if there is an oil shortage we should all
just lay down and cry, waiting for the government to fix it?

Aside from that aspect, I liked the show.  I generally have enjoyed
the recent few mockdocumentaries about the Yellowstone Supervolcano
and the like that have been popping up on cable.
