* JustForFun/XMeetsY: The show has been described as ''Film/ThePurge'' meets ''Film/TheFastAndTheFurious''. (However, given the fact that the government took control due to a viral outbreak and the race runs the length of the country, a more apt description would be ''Film/LandOfTheDead'' meets ''Film/TheCannonballRun''.)

* CrazySane: Joker Jones leads Team Awesome and acts as crazy as they are but a lot of it is just to vent his frustration about the curfew, he is still able to do his psychiatrist job and gets serious near the end while Cheese and El Capitano still guffaw.

"In the near future, Earth is overwhelmed by an unstoppable virus of unknown origin. To protect the population from the virus sweeping across the United Kingdom, a totalitarian government impose a curfew in which anyone caught out between 7pm to 7am will be put into quarantine, if not worse. The show focuses on a few lucky groups that are offered the opportunity to compete in an illegal 1000km street race where the finish line ends in the ultimate prize - sanctuary."

Participants in the race include Kaye Newman, a paramedic whose former boyfriend is the only known person to be infected with the virus and not become a mook; the Donahue family, whose son discovered how the government is keeping people in check; "The General", who's trying to get himself and his pregnant girlfriend out of the country; Team Awesome, who are basically in the race for fun; and Lou and Hanmei, a mother and daughter seeking to escape like everyone else.

* EveryoneCanSeeIt: Kaye and Michael. People keep mistaking him for her boyfriend, rather than Ruby's, which is one of the things that [[spoiler:leads Ruby to switch teams.]] Not helped by the fact that Kaye and Michael [[spoiler:were together before Ruby lied and told him Kaye had abandoned him]].
Added DiffLines:
* MaybeEverAfter: When the race ends, it's unclear whether [[spoiler:Kaye and Michael]] will get together again. It's implied that he's keen on the idea, as he misunderstands when she asks if he 'thinks it'll work out' and enthusiastically agrees [[spoiler: (she's actually talking about engineering a vaccine)]]. How she feels is less clear, especially since [[spoiler:he had previously left her for her sister, who she mercy killed a few hours before.]]
