What was the show (maybe on Bravo?) from about 7 or 8 years ago where civilization had moved underground?

I'm having trouble remembering the name of a show I saw a few episodes of around 7-8 years ago. I believe it aired on Bravo and remember the plot being something about civilization having moved underground maybe after either a plague of some sort or maybe a nuclear weapon strike?

I think people had divided into sort of the good guys and bad guys.

I know that's pretty vague, but any help would be great. My brain is racked.

Best answer: There's Jeremiah, but the wiki page indicates it was on Showtime. It involved a plague, underground living, and aired around the time you're thinking of.

This really isn't directly related to your question, but Discovery has a new show called The Colony, in which "survivors" of a plague have to carve out their existence in post-apocalyptic L.A. It's a bit cheesy, but I like the innovative ways they try to satisfy basic needs. Definitely worth a look if you're into that kind of stuff.

For some reason this made me think of "Earth 2" which doesn't sound exactly right at all. But it DID feature some freaky creatures on the new planet who would pop up from the ground and grab people. I'm not too confident this is what you are thinking of, but thought I'd toss it our there, just in case! Um, in checking imdb, I also see it's 15 years old now. Is there a LEAST helpful answer category?
