"Station Eleven" on HBO max. Highly recommended it.

A post apocalyptic saga spanning multiple timelines, telling the stories of survivors of a devastating flu as they attempt to rebuild and reimagine the world anew while holding on to the best of what's been lost.

Not a fast movie set of shows by any means. Connections between episodes.

I decided to give it a shot on Saturday when my wife fell asleep ridiculously early (I knew she wouldn't like it because she hates multiple timeline shows). I was up until 1:45am watching half the series. Haven't read the novel and doing my best to not spoil the end before I finish it this week.

Typically I don’t go for dark slow moving shows but I found it enthralling.

I got more out of it the second time. I liked many of the changes from the book (also excellent) but not all of them worked. Overall, though, one of the best things I've ever seen. Highly recommend.
