Had no idea there was a TV-series in the works. Would love to see that pilot.

Found this video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoGkB5yvDDk

its imdb page: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5024734/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

There was an NBC TV series in 2021 called Debris, canceled after 1 season, that must have taken some inspiration from Roadside Picnic (at least from what I see in this failed series trailer). It's about 2 federal agents searching for parts of an exploded alien spacecraft. It was your typical "monster of the week" while building up an overarching story. Each piece of the ship would have some unique and crazy affect on the area and/or people around it.

edit:

ah, looks like I'm not the first to notice this connection: https://www.reddit.com/r/Debris/comments/nz6pkl/debris_and_r...




Offhand this immediately reminds me of Warehouse 13. I wonder if it was similarly inspired?
