Delirium Pilot (sp)

Has anyone watched the Delirium pilot? I know it's on Hulu right now and is in my que. Any thoughts? How's did the casting turn out?

Re: Delirium Pilot (sp)

  • Well that's a surprise! 
    They say that for now there are no plans made to continue the series, but it seems awfully suspicious to suddenly air the pilot on any platform.

    I know what I'm doing with my evening now.

  • I've seen it.  I'm still processing my thoughts, but I think I liked it more than not.  It is not direct from the book -- they've left out a lot of the first book and they've brought in some characters from Pandemonium and some that didn't exist (I think, but it's been a while since I listened to them.). 

    It looks like they're trying to make Julian a potential love interest for Hana, which is strange to me, but I don't mind, because I liked TV-Julian, and I like TV-Hana (Jeanine - or is it Janine? - from SYTYCD a few years back).  But although I like her portrayal, it's weird for me because she physically doesn't look like Hana as described in the books.  There's so much made of Hana being Fair-haired and willowy and Lena being short with darker hair and eyes, so neither actress fits with my expectation in that regard.  I actually liked Lena as well, even though I really can't stand Emma Roberts normally.  But I did like her as Lena. 

    I tried to think in the mindset of someone who hadn't read the books, and I think they did a good job of setting up the premise for a new audience. 

    I would keep watching it if they produce a full series.
  • Any idea of places to watch it that isn't hulu? I poked around, but the places I did find it were pulled. I'm guessing It's a hulu sponsored thing?

  • I'm halfway through the ep and I'm enjoying it.
    I'm kind of wishing it had been picked up based on what they did with it so far in the Ep.

  • I really liked it and wish it had been picked up.  The only casting I don't love is Julian.
