Actually, it looks more like Sartre's 'No Exit.'

This is a direct rip-off of Wes Craven's "Nightmare Cafe."

here's an Idea: 2 people, a man and a woman, who haven't seen each other in 20 yrs., find each other on Facebook, and are both preparing for the coming collapse of western civilization, and have both seen UFOs and also been abducted, during the sightings.

karma.the unexpected, and guaranteed futcher.

No station carriers current tv, have to plead with the cable company. Can't wait to stream it, but for some reason even the clips buffer constantly. Can we get better streaming for us trying to get current tv on their cable system?

I really enjoyed the first show. i will be sticking around the watch the rest of this series.

As a giant geek (see: username), I approve of this programming! If something has to travel through time, it might as well be a bar! DVR: set.

Will it be viewable in Arizona now that karma has been outlawed? I'm still wondering if they outlawed bad karma, good karma or anything that can be construed as karma.

so... when is this comming out?

Since you"re going to go this route, why not pay an homage to the original idea...A character to whom his name is not known enters the bar. He doesn't say anything to anyone. He walks straight up to the bartender, jiggles his head, and asks fora pack of smokes. While laughing and muttering about frogs he has a seat and smokes a listless cigarette.
He is a reoccuring and ever-present entity who can walk in and out of the bar at will.
Why you ask......?
Because he has the curse of knowing all things (especially of the past and present) though he is not quite sure of the future. Hence his omnipotent powers on the forward into history.

very, very interesting. okay i'm hooked.

totally cant wait to watch it! it looks soooooo good!

This looks like fun! With 8 million 4 hundred-thousand species of life produced by a combination of the 3 basic modes of nature (goodness, passion and ignorance) there are a multitude of story-lines taking place throughout unlimited universes simultaneously. There is literally no end to the possibilities.

Looks Goooood :)

cool

I like science fiction, sunds like a hit

i cant wat

agan i just jumd i 2 ths

I like this video. Great introduction to the show. Keep up the good work!

FINALLY this is gonna be good when do we get to start seeing episodes I cant wait

This looks like a REALLY good movie. Can't wait to see it. It looks so intriguing and very addicting.

where is this video of james's introduction to the bar? i keep seeing cuts of it, but i can't find it. it would help a whole lot to see they way this was set up.

This reminds me of a RPG called Tales From the Floating Vagabound, only in the game, the bar would open a door on any bar in amy universe, at any time.

The plots I imagine involve people making key decisions like deciding that the USS Main's boiler explosion was not an act of war by the Spanish, that the blankets infected with Small Pox were burned instead of given to native Americans, that the Gulf of Tonken incident was debunked as a hoax moments after it was claimed to have happened, etc.

slade2star made an excellent point, highlighting what was on my mind as i was watching this video towards the middle: storyline feels a bit trite; kinda like it's trying to pull off some sort of Matrix-y pseudo-spiritual bent on "the life and the universe"/the search for identity, and cashing in on audience-driven plots, not unlike what LOST [online] has done before.

Bar Karma as a concept is intriguing (who doesn't like a good mind-bending, otherworldly drama with a wise old Dumbledore/Gandalf and eye-candies as the angsty/clueless/awkward protagonists?). However, as slade2star puts it, it's a bit trigger-happy with its [pseudo-]philosophical motivations as a "user-created TV program".

Looking at the trend of entertainment media, it seems like the 21st century is quite obsessed with the obscure, supernatural search for the meaning of life.

Anyone notice the tattoos on Dayna and the blonde girl's backs? Coincidence or some sort of foreshadowing?

Excellent job with the casting. This looks incredible so far.

Seems suspiciously similar to a story in Neil Gaiman's Sandman Series in which there is a bar at the edge of a universe called "The World's End." People randomly come across it from all different time periods (and dimensions) and share their stories. Read it in Sandman #51-56, incredible work.

It this Bar Karma is looking to take from Gaiman's plot then it should pay attention to what made Gaiman's story amazing: great characters with incredibly diverse stories that are at the same time foreign and still sympathetic. Most of all, Gaiman succeeded in making his stories strange and alluring, creepy yet wonderful. The biggest challenge, however, will be selling the idea. Gaiman's story came deep into a series that had already laid a lot of ground work in convincing the reader of its incredible universe, so "The World's End" wasn't a far stretch by this time. However, this TV shows wants to plop its idea down on the viewer from the get go and, honestly, the idea, without an already well-developed world, seems a bit stretched or even cheesy. The producers will have to take great care in developing the characters and the world of Bar Karma before completely asserting the show's main plot thrust (which I know remains undeveloped).

I guess my opinion at this point is the idea is too other-worldly to just jump right into it and furthermore isn't the best way to start this wonderful idea of Will Wright's. Will Wright's great idea of a viewer-created story, in my opinion, probably should have used a baser plot point as a beginning. Maybe something a bit more mundane and earthy from which his viewers could have grown the more fabulous ideas in time. However, I would rather see Will Wright succeed than not.

"Bar Karma is everywhere and nowhere."

I can't wait to watch!!!!!
