It’s not quite as bleak, although believe me when I say that’s not saying much,
As someone else who's watched and enjoyed(??) Survivors, this made me do a literal LOL.
(I've watched enough 1970s Brit TV at this point that I'm not even sure Survivors is by any eans the bleakest. And yet it is somehow comforting! We can stoically deal with anything unless we can't and we die? Oh, well, have a cup of tea. Unless you're in a canon where you can't get tea. Like Survivors and WWII things. No wonder they're the most bleak.)
OMG, though, yes, some of those episodes are amazingly gripping and go places the 2008 version (which I saw first) frustratingly wimped out on before it even started.
