There was a really good 1970s post-apocalyptic show in the UK called Survivors that dealt with those issues. One episode involved the fact that the only person who knew how to take care of their livestock committed rape and what to do about it. Others involved the just basic drudgery of returning to a medieval life. Really good show (apart from the last episode, which subverts the whole fucking show).
No, nothing like that. More of a “we’re going to take all the lessons learned through the course of the show and throw them out and act like it’s all going to be okay.”

Having never heard of this show until now, I’m gonna assume the subversion lies in “it was all a dream” territory?

Ahh, the ol’ Executive mandated happy ending.
With a touch of British classism.
