Incredible first episode. This is the sort of post-COVID media I think we all anticipated seeing someday.

Despite the absolute terror as everything unfolded, I couldn't help but laugh at the exchange with the secretary of agriculture through the TV.

It was interesting that the Secretary of Agriculture was the "most important" person alive, nearby & wearing a suit.

I expected Carol to recognize who was on TV as a way of easing her into what had happened. Clearly being in the White House press briefing room is a familiar setting, but I was surprised that the person wasn't known.

I don't know if we'll get a flashback of how the White House/military responded, I'm not sure it's that kind of story, but it just felt a little bit off.

Episode 2 spoiler

It was mentioned that "they" had to speed up their plans after the military found out. So maybe?
