I'm quite taken with this BBC armageddon / zombie / angel miniseries The Fades (2011), which stars a pre-"Get Out" Daniel Kaluuya as Mac, the series narrator-of-sorts and best pal to lead character Paul (played with impeccable understatement by Iain De Caestecker), who is a newly minted celestial warrior commissioned to stop the destruction of human kind by angry souls trapped between earth and the after life. Kaluuya's Mac has tremendous "mouthy" wattage -- he probably has twice the number of lines as his mate -- but his devotion to his changing and challenging friend in the face of the last days gives their relationship added depth.
