Jeremiah is a post-apocalyptic action drama television series starring Luke Perry and Malcolm-Jamal Warner that ran on the Showtime network from March 3, 2002 to September 24, 2004. Loosely based on the Belgian comic series Jeremiah by Hermann Huppen, the series takes place in a future wherein the adult population has been wiped out by a deadly virus.
The series ended production in 2003, after the management of Showtime decided they were no longer interested in producing science fiction programming. Had the series continued, it would have run under a different showrunner than J. Michael Straczynski, who decided to leave following the completion of the production of the second season due to creative differences between himself and MGM Television.
