I hope we get to see normal people going about their normal day, and while the characters are talking the tv/radio in the background is giving a lighthearted report on either a "flu" that seems to be spreading around [insert any city/state here] or something like that. I love in the old horror movies when the stuff in the background (radio/tv) slowly tells you what's happening over the beginning of the film. Bonus points if they can get the rights to use some of the actual old news recordings from the old George A. Romero films!
I hope that it's a over few days/weeks, and as the episodes progress we see signs of the pandimic getting worse. How I see it, start with one or two people having a stomach ache, then go to more people going to the hospital for itchy/burning/irradiated skin, then after about 5-6 episodes (assuming this is like a 10-13 episode season) have people start dieing. This can all be intercut with people going about their days and happy radio broadcasts happen. The broadcasts slowly darker as they go along and the people start gossiping. I'm seeing it as a slice of life show that goes to hell in a hand bag in 10-13 episodes.
Another thing that I have to add, I don't want it to turn out that it was the T-Virus that started all of this. I am sick and tieard of everything being blamed on science. I'd rather have it be an evaluation in our genes that took over.
