Possible new TV show of American Overthrow from within?

[Hound]

Looks like we might be getting an unusual show soon. Nothing is written in stone but they are thinking about it. I am curious how this would be received here :

From: iO9 SyFy Series: DMZ


Syfy has ordered a pilot based on the beloved Brian Wood comic. Here's the Amazon rundown on this long horrific story. It follows a "war journalist trapped in a most unlikely war zone: the streets of New York City. In the near future, America's worst nightmare has come true. With military adventurism overseas bogging down the Army and National Guard, the U.S. government mistakenly neglects the very real threat of anti-establishment militias scattered across the 50 states. Like a sleeping giant, Middle America rises up and violently pushes its way to the shining seas, coming to a standstill at the line in the sand - Manhattan or, as the world now knows it, the DMZ. Matty Roth, a naive young man and aspiring photojournalist, lands a dream gig following a veteran war journalist into the heart of the DMZ. Things soon go terribly wrong, and Matty finds himself lost and alone in a world he's only seen on television. There, he is faced with a choice: try to find a way off the island, or make his career with an assignment most journalists would kill for. But can he survive in a war zone long enough to report the truth?" Please don't suck. Please don't suck. Please don't suck. Please don't suck.

Sounds like propaganda to me.

Where's Kurt Russell when ya need him.

Didn't Kurt Russel already make that movie?

Sounds like pro-gov propaganda to me. It will suck. I doubt that a movie that supported the truth behind militias would ever be able to get the funding to produce it, let alone show it.

"Since it's on SYFY it will only have the best acting, story, plot, and special effects money can buy," he said sarcastically.

Maybe Bruce Campbell and Renee O'Connor with star in it!

This was my thought. Right in line with that Obama line about Tyranny and "You should dismiss that."

SYFY.....one word.....SHARKNADO!!!!!

They'll use it to spin a pro-gov theme.
