If you combine the post-apocalyptic landscape of Mad Max, the fourth-wall-breaking wit of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, the mindless, flesh-eating hordes of The Walking Dead, and the satirical high school cliques of Mean Girls (or, more recently, Netflix’s Sex Education), and toss them into a blender with a dash of Hunger Games, you might get something approaching the utterly bats**t, unashamedly gory, disarmingly hilarious Daybreak, which will be released on Netflix on October 24 (we’ve seen the first five episodes and will have a review closer to premiere).
Check out the first official teaser trailer for Netflix’s Daybreak below:
Self-referential meta-humor isn’t the only thing Daybreak has in common with Ferris Bueller; the series also features Matthew Broderick as Glendale High School’s endlessly amiable principal – a stroke of genius casting should hint at the level this delightfully weird series is operating at.
