Comic-Con in the night.... a quick note and select pictures from downtown San Diego. Attended a promising preview night, showcasing a few TV pilots for the fall 2013 season.
Since I had a previous engagement, unfortunately, I missed the first showing, which could possibly be one of the more intriguing ones, a story about genetically evolved humans blessed with special powers, "The Tomorrow People" (although doesn't this remind you of "Heroes?"). The other two are high-concept and pretty interesting as well; a futuristic cop drama where humans and androids working together to solve crimes ("Almost Human"), and social experimentation/survival in post-apocalypse earth and space station drama "The 100"). Today I caught a superb pilot, with elements of time travel, supernatural, mystery, fantasy and adventure ("Sleepy Hollow"). It works surprisingly well.
Will be back with more!
