This was an excellent start to a show.
I loved the timer. Knowing only the trailer going into it I thought the series was going to dump us into an existing world and the season would end with the timer at zero.
Obviously as the episode went on, it became clear we were going to reach 0 in this episode.
I hope the series jumps around and references the timer because I'd love to see more before and after. We got a huge time jump between "Paul" (guy who discovered it) figuring it out and scientists starting to make it.
They also said that they were converting people for months, and had to speed it up because the military caught on. On the TV in the bar, there the news saying the base was on lockdown, but obviously that didn't really matter. I can totally see a whole espionage episode as a flashback from someone in the military discovering the infection and not knowing who to trust to get to the bottom of it.
