‘Slingers’ Sci-fi show not yet on TV

[jefferiestubes8]

It comes from British production house Sleepydog Productions and director Steve Barron

it lacks the production values of some of the more impressive cable sci-fi we’ve seen in years,

It still looks great!

“Slingers is set in the year 2263 A.D., following mankind’s first interplanetary war.

Slingers is not your traditional science fiction show. It uses the trappings of the genre as background, but at its heart it has more in common with classic heist movies and the style of Sinatras Rat Pack. Exciting, visually stunning, and in turn both funny and poignant, the show is quite different from anything thats come before.

Very stylized visual scifi show. A little too stylized but hey it's a start.

Wasn't there a thread on this last year? I didn't realize it made it into production.

Somehow I didn't see this January 2010 thread (that had 9 replies) earlier today :
Slingers "sizzle reel"

and December 4, 2009 writeup on SciFiwire.com:
Brilliant trailer for nonexistent sci-fi TV series (maybe NSFW)
