A Zombie TV Show?

I saw this Digg post on “The Sci-Fi Sitcoms that Never Were“, and in it was the full pilot for a show called Babylon Fields… It’s a zombie drama/dark comedy in which the graveyard residents of a NJ town come crawling out, seeking not to eat brains, but to resume their lives, reconnect with their families, and in some cases, solve their own murders. I can’t believe CBS didn’t pick it up, the pilot is great. I’d love to see SyFy reconsider it (or Gay Robot if they’re not interested in my vote — and the Remnants looks like it might be funny too… I do like the idea about a post-apocalyptic comedy).

    Yes, I spent the 40 minutes watching the pilot. Definitely worth the time.

    So much so that I’m even downloading a torrent of the Babylon Fields pilot to watch it again.

Wow Shannon, that's really annoying! What is it, 1997 on Geocities? Retroweb is NOT cool!
