TV That Never Was
Apr. 9th, 2009 06:18 pmAfter getting all excited over the Warren Ellis comic series Global Frequency, it turns out there's a pilot for a TV show, made in '05. The pilot never got released, and the show never got made, but it has a weird phantom life out there in the torrents. It's actually pretty good - some rough edges, but hey, it's a pilot. The series, it had potential.
I wonder what other dead pilots and cancelled-in-shooting series are out there, escaped from the vaults? I wonder how many Facebook friends a dead pilot has before it has a chance to transition from larva to a full adult series before flying off into space on leaky radio waves?
I'm still finding the idea of a bunch of people connected together ad-hoc to be intoxicating. Imagine what you could do (or prevent)? And I'm seeing things like the Moldovan anti-government protest organized on Twitter and you know, maybe it's coming. Where's my Aleph, that's what I wanna know?
