Review: Gregg Araki’s 'Now Apocalypse' is so preoccupied by sex that it forgets to have an apocalypse
Kelli Berglund, left, plays Carly, best friend to Avan Jogia’s Ulysses in “Now Apocalypse.” By Hank Stuever Hank Stuever TV critic Email Bio Follow TV critic March 7 at 11:23 AM The modern manners of sexual fluidity get a rigorous workout in filmmaker Gregg Araki’s series “Now Apocalypse,” premiering Sunday on Starz.
Weird as it wants to be , the show is what you might get if a sex columnist were forced to write the screenplay for a cheap sci-fi flick. Or maybe it’s the sort of thing John Waters would be making if he were young again. “Now Apocalypse” is, in a way, the fuller expression of the Araki ideal, where everyone is a little bit anything, and the world always seems on the verge of ending.

Ulysses’s best friend Carly thinks he may be taking too many puffs off his cannabis pen; she’s an underemployed actress who gets by performing sex acts on her laptop for pervy customers.
