   Opening Narration:

     It was a day that began like any other.  Until that little 
     nuclear... misunderstanding.  So now there are only six of
     us.  Somehow each of us found our way to this farm.  Now 
     all we have to do is... rebuild society.


   Opening Narration (pilot only): 

     Ironically, it was a time of relative peace in the world.
     In New York that day, thoughts were on the pennant race. 
     In Los Angeles, the biggest concern was beating the heat.
     And in a small town in America's heartland, a parade was 
     being held.  The people ate hot dogs, listened to marshall
     tunes played by the local high school band, and craned their
     necks to admire the latest in high-tech weaponry from nearby 
     Fort Pratt.  But at the very moment the homecoming queen was 
     receiving a deservedly warm reception from the crowd, some 
     darn kids were playing [with remote control car] near one 
     of the missiles.  [missile launches].  Retaliation was swift.
     Failsafe and doomsday mechanisms kicked in exactly as programmed,
     and in less than 50 minutes, but for a handful of survivors, the
     world had been destroyed.  Looking back on it... it had to be 
     considered a bad parade.
