I'd really like to see this become a full-blown series. That cast alone is worth it. Thanks John, for posting it.

i loled

haha. hope this becomes a series.

Really cool Stuff. Liked it so much. Would love a Series.

I love it. I have always been fascinated with Post-Apocalyptic scenarios, and this one I could get into.

This is wonderful! Best of luck with it!

This is really cool!

make more. I'll watch

Very compelling. More!

that looked like it has been a lot of fun to do. tv make it happen, pretty please.

Nice! Good luck.

Yes! Watched last year's post and loved it. TV will make this pass, surely.

Love JB and Michael Cassidy used to annoy me but now is HOT!

Really, really good video ;-))

the appartment looks like the appartment from "A Scanner Darkly"... love it!

This is wild! i would watch this all day if i could. keep it coming. please inform us when this goes to tv. very funny, great work.

Really dig it guys. Be proud.

Haha... hilarious stuff!

Need more!!! I hope someone picks this up...I'm really digging it.

GREAT! 11,300 people saw this before me. Damn it!

Great writing and interesting casting. Very enjoyable. Thanks for posting.

Add me to the list of people hoping to see more!

Draft the Remnants!

Hope this flys!

this is great, reminds me of I Love Sarah Jane

LOVE IT! zefrank: Action Hero!

Tell me who to lobby and I'll go all fangirl over their ass.

Awesome! Hope to see more of this!

That was amazing!! I hope there is more!!

a w e s o m e !

Very nicely done. I would enjoy seeing more of this.

Survivor gone LA. Love it!

Bravo.

The feel of the show was great, and the tiny taste of the plot that we got was wonderful.

It would absolutely rock if this would get picked up and produced.

Great stuff. I want more!

Cool. Interesting. Like to see where it would go from there.

this really needs to be a series of some kind.

Is there a way that I can get the black dude contact

Ernie Hudson is a pimp. I miss Winston Zeddemore.

Count my vote, I would totally watch this. Who know Ze Frank could act? Crazy, if I was around Ernie Hudson all I'd do is bug the crap out of him with questions about Ghostbusters.

Great Show. Liked the "Helvetica" shirt :P

I want more of this. Loved this video.

I'd watch this series, heck I'd even buy episodes if they're all as good as the pilot.

If you ever make more of these, do me a favor, NEVER EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED TO THE EARTH OR AT THE GRAND CANYON!!! Unless you have already thought about that and worked backwards. Nothing upsets me more when a sense of mystery and wonder is ruined by a contrived explanation. No one said writers have to know the secrets of the universe. Just know how the unknown can effect the known.

"Sweet! How much do you want for it?" *Snort* yeah, I'd watch the full length version of this in a heartbeat.

Anyone else see the massive possible tie to the Office? It's got a similar style and humor. One episode they could find Dwight - who's kept alive thanks to his paranoia and love for all things sci-fi! Hey, NBC is involved, anything could happen.

Nice one, John.

It's kind of a problem tho' that you can hear the traffic in the background during the vote.

Allow me to crush your dreams a little.
First off, I won't review the production/direction, that would be hugely unfair. I will thusly review the screenplay:
This is obviously a character-driven/plot-driven dramedy show. All the characters got introduced and characterized rather funny and neatly in a few actions/words. And the post-apocalypse is always interesting to deal with (reading your blog, I hopefully know you will probably never explain the Grand Canyon and Whatever-Happened-To-Earth - finally a writer who cares for his audience!)
*However*, please explain to me then, why the enormous amount of downright boring dialogue (the turkey? batteries? roommates? ed begley jr? the vote?)? Why not, as Tarantino would have done, throw in a few 'motherfuckers' or 'bitches'; or as Sorkin, a bunch of incredibly fast-paced witty remarks? With all due respect (almost all your films are just marvelous, and the scripts for DC are too), if you honestly know you're not writing good dialogue, refrain from it.

Just my less-than-two-cents-rant. Feel free to cry like a helpless child (now, I'm just kidding) or to plea guilty and hate yourself for it (again, I'm only kidding) or to not care anymore about what other people say about your writing (yes, in fact, I'm kidding again 'cause you had to find this out for yourself a long long time ago and don't need me to tell you anymore).
Now I really do have to break my ranting. I hope your other future screenplays do have better dialogues (I know they certainly will).

WOW. This show would be great. I loved the dialogue between the characters. The characters seemed real.

Astounding. Provided me with the first non-chemical boffo laffs that I've had in weeks.
I found this because of Ze Frank, who I love as an actor and provocateur, but he fits right into the ensemble without overpowering it. Maybe because the other cast members are equally good.
I'm disappointed that there isn't a place for this somewhere-- with money, I mean. I thought about it as TV, but the short format is really integral. Maybe it could be retooled, but I don't think the market for new TV is any better than web video right now.
Unless it can be sold as a reality series-- a real possibility, unfortunately.

Very enjoyable! I like Ze Frank's acting.

This was awesome! Please, somehow make this into an ongoing series. Forget the networks. Pitch this to hulu or something or just make it a youtube regular series. The web is the future of tv if you hadn't noticed.

I have to say, that was outstanding. Probably one of the best Pilots I've seen.

@Olternaut Ah, but the trick is getting paid when you put things on the web. :)

great script, great acting. funny. awesome

I loved this. Great acting, really funny, and it is a really great take on post-apocalyptic life. I could see this going somewhere.

P.S. Sam De Meyer is opinionated and came off as a prick.

Nice; Do tell me.........what kind of a camcorder was used for this??
TC..

this was pretty cool.
and that guy was on the oc, lmao

That was so dam awesome.

I love this ! Keep shooting !

Why is this not on TV or iTunes or something.

I must know more! I love the cast combo very good!

OK, pretty interesting, I would like to know a bit more about the whole storieline....

Well done.

i heart amanda walsh.

@Tim Curtis:

Stock HVX-200. Pro DP. Lots of color correction.

Everything about this is just awesome! The dialogue, casting, shooting (not ground breaking, but fits the piece so damn well). Just a great piece! As does everyone else, I really hope it gets developed.

awesome! real funny, hope this goes through

Very interesting. I hope this gets off the ground, I'd definitely like to see more.

Very Funny & Creative! Hope you continue!

I came across this randomly. Really good stuff. I'd love to see this as a series.

I want to see a film. This was hilarious.

This would have won an Emmy. NBC's loss.

If you do a new version, you HAVE to keep Norman. I love the character and the actor. And overall I would actually watch this for the record. This seems like a nice base to a bigger idea :)
