The Remnants Pilot

The content partnership between 60Frames and NBC-Universal has already produced some promising results…

When The Remnants was revealed by Variety, Writer/Director/Producer John August (Go, Big Fish and Charlie’s Angels) decided to post these two minutes of his pilot.  Self-described as “a comedy about a group of squabbling survivors in post-apocalyptic Los Angeles” and tonally “a cross between The Stand and The Office,” the concept, it’s creator and cast show promise across the board.

This is a series that will be worth watching.

The pilot is marked by clever (if slightly too clever) dialogue met with honest, wry performances brought to life by true talent.  The series stars internet phenomenon ZeFrank (our coverage), Justine Bateman, Michael Cassidy, Ben Falcone, Ernie Hudson and Amanda Walsh.

Its a well-made production and, as August notes, it looks great in HD.  I’m hungry for more.
