First? by Bob Dobbs	Aug 18th, 2008 03:48:34 PM

whoa. by frankenfickle	Aug 18th, 2008 03:55:10 PM
lame.
Why? by TELF	Aug 18th, 2008 04:04:35 PM
Isn't TV supposed to be on TV?
Talkie, talkie, talkie by sevadro	Aug 18th, 2008 04:06:18 PM
Too much talkie.
She was one of the aliens, amirite? by ArcadianDS	Aug 18th, 2008 04:23:27 PM
a bug or something? I remember big fleshy buggy eyeballs.
Hmm by Cobbio	Aug 18th, 2008 05:25:37 PM
These 'casts made me wonder who she was talking to. A friend? An ex? An authority figure? I couldn't quite tell. That's what I liked about it. Amazingly, and probably helped by the fact Rosario Dawson's a beautiful as well as solid actress, I liked what I just watched. The story was oddly told but strangely compelling. I want to know what that stuff on her fingers was. It's not what I was expecting from the guy who wrote "Mortal Combat 2" and "Enterprise" episodes, but it was quietly effective. Needs more action and deeper weirdness, but I liked Dawson's character and the setup. We'll see.
One of my top-10 Perfect Women. by ZeroCorpse	Aug 18th, 2008 05:41:34 PM
She's deliciousness turned up to 11.
Green Arrow! by badstar	Aug 18th, 2008 07:10:00 PM
I'd rather see him in a Green Arrow spin-off series. Oh well.
Boring as fuck by AndrewWanKenobi	Aug 18th, 2008 07:17:33 PM
If the 'chunks' are any indication. If that shit airs people are going to grab for the remote quicker then you can say canceled. And it's very obvious that it was all shot in front of a green/blue screen.
Watch video? or as I like to call it... by gottaeat	Aug 18th, 2008 07:18:50 PM
VIDEO CONTENT IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR AREA YOU DIRTY LITTLE CANADIAN!!! What do YOU know about entertainment? You'd all be speaking GERMAN now if it wasn't for us. Sorry I got a little riled up there... but yeah. I probably wont be able to see it. But my question is... is this show based on the comic with her likeness she put out a couple years back?
Rosario Dawson's comic "Occult Crimes Taskforce" by gottaeat	Aug 18th, 2008 07:21:23 PM
Sounds like this is her comic come to the small screen. Should be cook, the comic was interesting. It suited her. Here is a link: http://tinyurl.com/5oonxa Or just Google "Rosario Dawson comic" and voila. Her comic book likeness is fantastic.
After Afterworld by Cadfile	Aug 18th, 2008 07:52:57 PM
Its by the same guys who did Afterworld which was pretty okay by web standards. And they have a pretty good cast so maybe it'll be watchable. Then again NBC's recent webisodes for the Office and Hero's suck monkey ass so maybe not. Time will tell, one way or another. BTW you can find all 130 episodes of Afterworld on Youtube now. The animation style is a little wonky but it's a pretty good story. Worth checking out IMO.
Snoooooooorrrrrrrrreeeeeeeee by GreatCzarsGhost	Aug 18th, 2008 07:59:42 PM
The only interesting thing about this is that she said "chicken shit" and that's not usually used on a network show. Other than that this is really slow and I have a feeling viewers will be looking forward to the commercials.
I want the last 5 minutes of my life back by RockMSockM	Aug 18th, 2008 08:23:24 PM
I love Rosario (HAWT), but what the hell is this crap?
holy suck by Dwarves	Aug 18th, 2008 10:40:51 PM
That was soooooooo slow, if you're going to have only 5min episodes how about making us want to come back for more. You can afford a slow build in a 30min or hour show...it doesn't work here.
bad. by billypilgrimisunstuck	Aug 18th, 2008 11:22:30 PM
but i would love to watch them have sex
Like slowly draining the blood from my body through my pee hole. by DarthSiskel	Aug 18th, 2008 11:26:30 PM
I will watch this show get canceled.
CLIP YOU SELECTED ISN'T AVAILABLE IN YOUR LOCATION by ivehadsex	Aug 19th, 2008 02:16:50 AM
Once again with the blocking of the viewing to the Canadians.
Is this just by optimus122	Aug 19th, 2008 04:14:02 AM
going to be a web show or is it actually going to end up on tv soon? Some of the comments above make it seem like these web ep's are just a prelude to the tv show.
this doesn't sound anything like OCT by oisin5199	Aug 19th, 2008 11:51:16 AM
Occult Crimes Taskforce was about disembodied spirits, not evil replicants. This sounds more scifi. One of my favorite parts of the trade paperback was the OCT rookie manual, which was more interesting than the actual story.
Aren't Clips/Commercials supposed to be good? by LeftFoot	Aug 19th, 2008 01:20:18 PM

It's good by veritasses	Aug 19th, 2008 02:05:50 PM
acting, directing, fx etc for a no budget webisode. Unfortunately, it suffers from poor writing.
This smells like Count Dooku. by cookylamoo	Aug 19th, 2008 03:42:38 PM
Count Dooku's dirty socks.
Watch it on X-box live by Vonfolger	Aug 19th, 2008 06:58:50 PM
Better on a big screen. Watch it on X-box live for free.
No, I don't. by kabong	Aug 19th, 2008 10:52:16 PM
I said, no, I don't.
This Is Terrible!!! Where Is Joss Whedon When You... by Media Messiah	Aug 20th, 2008 12:07:29 AM
...need him??? Comparng this to Dr. Horrible, is like comparing Plan 9 From Outer Space to The Godfather!!! What a mess!!!!
Ivehadsex, Stop Complaining, You Lucked Out!!! by Media Messiah	Aug 20th, 2008 12:18:10 AM
This is just horrible. Dude, this should prove to anybody Joss Whedon is a genius. Just watch this back to back wth Dr. Horrible, there is no contest. One is incompetent, and the other brimming in competence and confidence. Joss did Dr. Horrible in a week without network or studio or support...and here we have Rosario Dawson with a network behind her, and they create this trash, the Gemini Division??? Sounds like someone at NBC just wanted to get in her panties, hence the reason they greenlit this garbage.
Strange audio issues. by gotilk	Aug 20th, 2008 03:19:15 AM
Dialogue cuts out but background music still plays perfectly under it. On purpose? If so, it's not effective because you can still hear what they are saying, it's just garbled and quiet. Then when it comes back it's deafening. So, if they did that on purpose, they're really stupid.
I'd rather watch Roseanne Bar rip hot people by geraldbeans	Aug 20th, 2008 07:58:26 AM
"blah blah blah. I'm ugly and fat and putrid and disgusting! ooh look! A good-looking person! Hey you! You're a republican! You fuck dead people! You eat foreign children! The media makes fun of you for spending way too much time in foreign countries adopting children but you hate foreign countries and their children! Fuck off! fart burp Blahhhhhh!!!!
WIRED Magazine had an article on this... by schnorbis	Aug 20th, 2008 11:10:20 AM
...and it got me interested in this little show. They've filmed several episodes already, and there should be more action in later ones, if that's all you care about.
This Is Just Plain Writing And Direction!!! by Media Messiah	Aug 20th, 2008 08:11:59 PM
Action has nothing to do with it. This production is stiff, without imagination, suffers from poor direction...and poor writing. The budget doesn't matter, here or lack of action, as I have seen zero budget Twilight Zone (the original series) episodes with no action in them, that were absolutely brilliant. This Gemini Division web series is just unprofessional, poorly staged, poorly filmed and unpolished.
