Trivia
After viewing the pilot, executives at the WB television channel decided not to put the series into production and it was shelved. The pilot only saw the light of day when it was "leaked" onto the Internet and distributed using the Bittorrent protocol (incidentally the first time an unaired pilot television program was released to the public in this way). Despite campaigning from fans, the WB stuck by the decision to pass on the series.

Goofs
When the guards riddle the back wall of the elevator with bullets, the metal around "bullet holes" is bent inward, toward the shooters, making it clear that the "bullet holes" were punched from the other side using squibs.

Amazing Pilot.

With the current shows that have actually been aired since 2005, you'd think that this show would already have several seasons. But, sadly not so.

I am a big Warren Ellis fan and yesterday started rereading his comics. Warren has written some amazing graphic novels and this one deserved to be a TV series. I only happened to hear about it when I decided to read up on wiki about Ellis' other works.

I loved this pilot. It deserves the rating it has. Hands down this is a very classy pilot. There is so much to like. We get Michelle Forbes as Amanda Zero who really nails the role. Michelle is such an awesome actor and has had great roles in the past. This one really suits her.

I loved the pacing and the tone of the show was just perfect for the story. I hope they hurry-up and make a series.
