Have it set for a series recording on the DVR, so I'll have to keep with it. Especially now with Walking Dead over for another season and Hell on Wheels doesn't come back for a couple more months, so I don't have much in the way of series that I'm watching right now.
There isn't a ton of backstory in the game either. I think it's a discover as you go. In the game you crash land into the west coast (where the game takes place). There isn't a ton of backstory to start, but there are a few cutscenes before you get into the action.
