In this post-apocalyptic, genre-bending series, the city of Glendale, California is populated by marauding gangs of jocks, gamers, the 4-H Club, and other fearsome tribes who are kicking ass as they fight to survive in the wake of a nuclear blast (on the night of Homecoming... ugh). Following an eclectic group of survivors as they navigate this strange and treacherous world, DAYBREAK is part samurai saga, part endearing coming-of-age story, and part Battle Royale.

View Details Critic Reviews for Daybreak Season 1 All Critics (33) | Top Critics (10) | Fresh (23) | Rotten (10) A wild ride of a TV show. Oct 25, 2019 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Steve Greene indieWire Top Critic [Daybreak] often has the pretentious air of something that thinks it's much smarter than it actually is. Oct 23, 2019 | Full Review… Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Top Critic Just when Daybreak stretches your patience, it has a way of rebounding with a clever touch or a strong performance that makes you give it more chances. Nov 6, 2019 | Full Review… Jen Chaney New York Magazine/Vulture Top Critic Daybreak is satire, but while it is loaded with mocking humour, it, too, has great poignancy. Nov 6, 2019 | Full Review… John Doyle Globe and Mail Top Critic While there are definitely some laughs to be had, they end up being few and far between and often come across as being overly ambitious, trying too hard to win over the audience. Jan 8, 2020 | Full Review… Holly Edwards Film Inquiry When you have a show that can deliver gory scenes in the same breath as heartwrenching explorations of relationships and then humor landing in all the spaces in between, you just know that you found something special. Nov 6, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review… Yana Grebenyuk TV Fanatic Daybreak will undoubtedly attract a young crowd, but spelling everything out in black and white underestimates their intelligence. Nov 6, 2019 | Full Review… Abby Robinson Digital Spy Despite drafting in the likes of Matthew Broderick, Ken Marino, Krysta Rodriguez as the adults, there isn't enough here to make 'Daybreak' particularly exciting. The comedy falls flat and tries far too hard to prop itself up with pop culture references. Nov 6, 2019 | Full Review… Brian Lloyd entertainment.ie With so much else to watch these days, committing to ten episodes of this show isn't worth your time unless you're really into snarky post-apocalyptic tales or are looking for something to play in the background while you're doing other things. Nov 6, 2019 | Full Review… Vanessa Armstrong Slashfilm Much like its protagonist, Daybreak doesn't claim to be smart - a kind of preemptive defense against inevitable criticisms - instead it revels in its appropriation of familiar genre ideas and cliches about high school cliques and teenage tribalism. Nov 6, 2019 | Full Review… Kevin Yeoman Screen Rant These scenes provide some great emotional moments, as well as some other fun ones. [Full review in Spanish] Nov 15, 2019 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review… Jorge Loser Espinof This mash-up of Lord of the Flies, Mad Max and Riverdale quickly wears out its self-conscious welcome. Nov 15, 2019 | Full Review… Steve Murray ArtsATL View All Critic Reviews (33) Audience Reviews for Daybreak: Season 1 Oct 09, 2020 Tooo bad netflex cancelled this show but still make that 13 reasons bullcrap Vince E Jul 11, 2020 This was an entertaining and quirky series. I was entertained and enjoyed watching the twist on high school cliques set in a zombie world. Rodrigo G Jul 05, 2020 A fun and refreshing take on the zombie genre, with plenty of action, drama and a lot of surprising plot twists Michael H Jun 01, 2020 Apesar do início maçante e tedioso causado pelas repetitivas quebras da quarta parede feitas pelo protagonista, a narrativa da série é dinamizada pelo aprofundamento individual e planejado dos dilemas e conflitos dos outros personagens principais os tornando carismáticos, complexos e representativos. Já o enredo é carismático o suficiente para atrair os mais diferentes públicos, por possuir uma progressão natural e psicológica acertada. Dado o conjunto, minha nota para este seriado é 9. Tiago R May 17, 2020 Uma boa série, achei o arco do personagem principal o pior de todos, mas os outros personagens são bons da pra ver muita personalidade e profundidade em todos, meus preferidos são a Angelica e a srta.Crumbles, já o protagonista é imaturo do começo ao fim, seria bom se pelo menos no final ele tivesse alguma evolução, mas não foi o caso. Marlon S May 15, 2020 It was good in the beginning but then it turned boring and fell flat. I would much rather have a movie of this than a series. I liked Ms Crumble's character tho kunsh p May 05, 2020 Dark comedy. Witty dialogue. Lots of semi-obscure pop culture references. Decent story lines and character development. Pretty much Netflix done right. ;o) Daniel H Apr 24, 2020 It has proven once more that world-building is one of the most important parts when creating a fictional world Josh S Apr 24, 2020 Great and very unique. I really hope season 2 eventually comes out Matthew G Apr 10, 2020 Amazing show! Don't know why it is getting so low ratings.
