Y: The Last Man (2021)

Y: The Last Man is a TV show based on Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra’s post-apocalyptic comic book series of the same name. The show aired on FX in 2021 but was canceled after one season due to budgetary reasons. The series followed the same premise as the comics, with a cataclysmic event wiping out anything with a Y chromosome aside from a man named Yorick Brown (Ben Suchnetzer) and his pet monkey.
