A few months ago I remember seeing this pseudo documentary/drama/program. I can't remember what it was called or which of the channels (Discovery, Science Channel or History Channel) it was on, and not remembering the name or any actors that will help me search for it is driving my crazy.
It basically followed this family Husband/Wife/son around in the US after a virus has infected a large part of the population and society has broken down. The guy is a paramedic and during the episode he winds up stealing from a hospital where he worked, getting ripped off by a bunch of thugs that he was trying to trade with...then going back to steal from them and having his wife shoot one of them in his defense. Near the end they wind up starting a new life at a camp with others at which time he gets cut and dies of an infection because there are no antibiotics.
I know that's bizarre but it was everything I could remember in a relatively concise form so that anyone that recognizes it can tell me what this was called before I drive myself crazy...
Thanks,
Val
