Would you fund this show?
jfornear: I'm not sure if the creators of this show will read any HN comments, but this is HN so constructive criticism is expected...I liked the pilot, I thought the length was perfect for an online show. I think the cast is pretty good too, which shows overall potential.Things I would consider: The show's name (and the title typography) make you expect something like The Sopranos. Perhaps it should be changed to further differentiate itself from that show?Plot-wise, the show should distance itself from LOST by excluding characters like 'them' or 'the others'. I could see how a studio type could dismiss this show as a LOST ripoff which could affect opportunities to raise funding.Either way, I really like the idea of a show based on economic apocalypse (Peter Schiff callers asking about stocking guns and ammo is funny and ignites your imagination).The dialogue about the demand for Wii's was pretty cool to me, though I could see how the use of Wii's and Helvetica t-shirts could attract super trendy tech-types while turning off others.Also, words prone to pronunciation mess ups or confusions like 'edible' or 'eatable' throw the audience off (or maybe just me).
