  • i soo wish this had been continued...

  • Eric is so fucking hot

  • dis is pretty good

  • This looks like a bunch of kids playing cops and robbers. Liked the concept of the story though.

  • Man. This series would have been AWESOME!!!

    I WANT MORE!!!

    Why did they cancell it? 

  • I am somewhat disappointed watching this pilot. Not because it wasn't a good pilot but because it let me down as a fan of the Fearless series. Besides for it straying from the solid foundation the book made for it, it was a pretty good pilot and could have probably been a pretty good show.

  • Come On!!!! I Love This Episode... I Want More!!

  • shame they didnt have more eps...brilliant pilot... loved the books ah well :(

  • sighhhhh.. i remember reading this series... it was AWESOME!! and the show looks good too... would have been amazing... if only...

  • great now im depressed because i want to see more episode but i know there isnt any :(

  • shame it didn't make it ... would have been a great show

  • GAH! Fear isn't a gene! It's the combined response of cognition and the endocrine's system effect on circulation, respiration, digestion, and muscle contraction! Furthermore, fear's physical manifestation is the result of the same factors that induce....y'know...other feelings (good ones) that make our our hearts pound, knees shake, and pupils dilate. Soooo....a physically fearless person would also be disabled sexually. I wonder if the writers thought of that.

  • @mountaincritter ha! That's awesome. SO Gaia is fearless and asexual. Sucks to be her!

  • @mountaincritter I'm sure that's all very true, but don't forget its a fictional series. Try not to let the lack of realism get to you.

  • i loveeeee this show

  • this would have been a wicked series so disappointed it didnt make it darn

  • did this show ever go on tv??? and does it have more then one episode?????????????

  • @SheriRenee15 No it didn't and no it doesn't. The pilot was filmed and The WB had planned to air the show after Gilmore Girls but it was put on hold until mid season. Instead of going with their original plan of starting it during the mid season The WB put One Tree Hill on instead and just put Fearless on the shelf. They then canceled it before they could film more episodes or even show the pilot.

  • I liked the pilot.

    Will watch the series.. :)

  • Cool.... I would love to watch the series :)

    The gal is cute

  • wath the name of last song?

  • @katerine1misy1,

    "Bring Me to Life" by Evanescence

  • What happened to Ed? I obviously didn't make it through the whole series.

  • I love Ian but honestly considering all the WB past he's had with shows he's in being canceled I was surprised when he decided to do Vampire Diaries lol but soooo glad he did, he's an amazing actor. Wish WB/CW would give good shows more of a chance tho.

  • @darkestrose2005 yeah Ian's a great actor :D he's great as Damon - it's the perfect role for him! and TVD has been pretty successful so The CW would be stupid to cancel it now! not to mention there would be heaps of angry fans :/

  • man why did it get canceled, there is so much potential in this, could of worked with it and made it better.

  • love the series. kinda sad that it never aired. maybe they'll try to bring it back someday?

  • I've never read the books... but i love Ian Somerhalder...it would have been a great show...i would have watched it... it's too bad they cancelled it... :(

  • Kinda mad it got canceled before it even started it would have been a pretty good show.

  • Great idea for the show. I'll have to read the books but the execution was poor I think. Ian somerholder I watch in vampire diaries is definitely the best actor of the bunch

  • dang i wish there was more. i dont really care that it doesnt follow the books as much cuz its still good:) thanx for uploading

  • 3:57 seriously?

  • @CielxMer well she IS fearless. she wouldn't think of any reprcusions

  • So this really wasn't bad at all, And I didn't mind that she wasn't blonde, I really wish they had begun the series when she was in High School. But other then that it's great. Oh and I think if they gave the actors time they would act more like the characters they're supposed to portray. The Pilot is usually a bit awkward.

  • Rachael Leigh Cook can't choose decent movies or tv shows at all.

  • Ian looks good here.. LOL..

    RLC looks a bit too pretty to play Gaia..

    The high school days would've been better..

  • i wish there was more this was excelent i dont think i spelled that right lolz

  • I read some of the books a loooong time ago. I liked them....this was not an adequate adaption at all.

  • I think that as this show went on it would have gotten better....but I think that before they got into this section with her being an FBI agent I think they should have done her High School years... I think it would have been SOOOO MUCH BETTER.

  • Oh, I think that RLC played Gaia well and I can see where this had potential to make it far. I think that if it was allowed to evole would would have been able to see flashbacks of Gaia back in new york. I just didn't like that she didn't have the blond hair and blue eyes. and I love RLC but her face is a little to round for Gaia, I think that Kristen Bell would have made a better Gaia. But even so this was awesome and they should have let it play out as is. I think they should try again

  • Does anyone know the name of the song that starts at 1:27 and goes through the shooting part at 2:28?

  • And can anyone post part 3 again?

  • seven nation army by the white stripes

  • Oh, man, that was good. I wish it had picked up. Good show.

  • o my gosh, this was a good pilot! the actors are fucking briliant. look at ian somerhalder, he is the king - a sunyboy, a damy hot looking taff men playing every character, every roll with 100% emotional convincing!!!!!!!!! if i could i would merry him *gg*

  • la chica y jordan tennian qe qedarse juntos,el esta re bueno LL)

  • It sucks that this is the only episode of the show. After watching that I really want to see more!

  • was this the only episode? that was a good pilot episode

  • This show is like "The Inside" with Rachel Nichols with the main character having a trouble history but she is fun to watch and the rest of the cast are great.

    The Inside at least aired as this show should have.

  • Eric is the best

  • They should have startec the series differently. if it wasn't so obviously based off the book 'fearless' it would have made an awesome series on its own but they screwed up the book. They should have had different character names and Nikki? That isn't even her character. But like I said, on its own, it would have made a good series, you just can't think of it as the books.

  • completely agree...if you think of it a show based off fearless it sucks...but on its own, not too bad

  • I think it was more like the Bones series, inspired by the books but not actually any of the content.

    This was good, wish they'd at least gone a whole season, even if it was a short one, like 10 episodes or something. I mean RLC did a great job and the pilot showed a lot of promise. Too bad!

  • Okay so after watching the full pilot I take back my comment about RLC She can definalty fufill the Gaia role. It is to bad they didn't continue espcially in the wake of Alias if they could redo it now I think it would be awsome. I think the series is good but they may have more content to go on if they had started earlier in the series. It is just to bad that it couldn't go on.

  • i miss alias!!!

  • I thought this was a good pilot. I wished they'd continued the series.

  • I think this was a great TV pilot, but I can understand why the powers that be would decided not to let this go to series. It really is a tough sell. Gaia is a hard character to relate to, since fear is such a driving force in most peoples' lives. And despite the fact that the concept has a whole series of books it's based on, seeing it in TV format makes it come off as a Buffy rip-off, and would have even moreso if they'd gone with the books' premise that sets Gaia in high school.

  • I think they made her an FBI angent because they were trying to appeal to an older audience

  • I also would have preferred the high school Gaia because it was about something much different. It wasn't just about her being fearless and in the FBI/CIA (shows we have TOO much of). It was really about a girl growing up and finding out who she was based on all events of her past and how she desperately wanted fear to be normal and to care about people without putting them in danger. The books storyline was more complicated and would have made a much more original storyline than this.

  • Think they could've done the high school Gaia in flashbacks.

  • I think her acting is good, she just doesn't look it. Yeah, she doesn't show much emotion, but the point of Gaia was that she didn't. She kept herself closed off and always wanted to make it seem she didn't care. I think Cook did a great job of portraying that.

  • agreed.

  • Even though it didnt follow the original storyline almost at all, it did have a great first episode soundtrack.

  • Its kind of a typical CW soundtrack though. I don't know why they used Bring Me to Life at the end here, it didn't fit the series or the way it was portrayed.

  • This is good! I actually like it although it is different from the books. Heck, even Gossip Girl doesn't follow the books.

  • I dug it.

    The only criticisms I see are physical ones. Those don't matter.

    What about the acting? the plot?

  • ive neva read the books so 2 me this was gd and shud av been aired

  • You know, I think if they had started with a tall, teen, fairy-tale blonde Gaia, from back in high school, they would have been able to capture more of the Fearless state that Gaia has that this show lacked.

  • I agree with you 100%.

  • @LadyxMisao i think so too

    or even if they started from when she was trying to become an FBI agent

  • fighting for like a motion picture.

  • As a fan of the books I was disapointed that there wasnt any blond teen gaia, I think that If she was still in high school (like the book)it would have been better.

    But all in all I would rate it 6 out of 10.

  • the beginning basically sucked but it was okay in the end. it would be abit more interesting if she were in high school though, cuz this reminds me of veronica mars or medium or sumthin. i really wish they could continue and make it better tho. the books are awesome

  • As a fan of the books I really didn't like that. The lack of tall, blonde teenage Gaia sorta freaked me out.

  • okay its not that bad! but I think the WB did a horrible job making this.. I mean it would've been better if she were in high school and it went on than.. Well I can say I hope another station or network picks this storyline up!

  • ok yea not as good as the books but admittedly its good

  • IAN SOMERHALDER RULES!

    He's the only thing making the show watchable.

  • this looks really good. on wikipedia it said that the show didn't air coz they found that no matter how hard they tryed, no1 could really express the fearless state that was like what Gaia in the books had. i thought it was well done though after watching this...so i dunno

  • THIS SHOW FREAKING ROCKS!

  • This wud be an awesome show ive read some of the books. Whoa cares if it doesn't folow it. Books are rarely followed onto t v/movies anywayz i wud love to watch this show! Eric is hot woo !

  • this would have been a kick ass show i so would have watched....and if at any point it got crapy i would still watch it for eric balfour.

  • This would of been an awesome show. I would of been totally watching it every week. And the best part is how HOT Eric Balfour is!! I can't wait to see him on another show.

  • i dunno, i thought it wasn't that bad, and iv'e read all the fearless books. i hated it at the start, but then that dude in the car mentioned her escapades in New York, so i assume they're reffering to the events in the books. plus i thought it was funny how they kept putting in scenarios to show she's fearless, like that guy with his knife and her hand, her getting drowned, the phone thing where her voice doesn't spike and the gun to her head thing. lol, overdo it much?!?

  • Wow, I've been reading Fearless for about 6 years and this show is nothing but a joke.. Even IF you hadn't read the books, it was just flat out terrible. No wonder it didn't even get to air its first episode...

  • This show was okay but it didn't have a whole lot to do with the books. Following the books would have been a whole lot better.

  • Shows/movies rarely follow the books they are based on.

  • This show blows. If a crappy network like wb didn't pick it up then you know it sucks.

  • is this show still on???

  • This show would have been so much better if it followed the original book series from the first book through plus Gaia is BLONDE IN THE BOOKS!!! BLONDES ROCK! honestly rachel should stick to Josie and the pussycats plus Gaia should have a different accent for crying out loud her mother was RUSSIAN!!! The show needs a whole make over.

  • what everyone also has to remember is that this was a one hour pilot, for all we know the series could have followed the book a lot more closely

  • 500 characters my ass...I'm not done! My money is on no though..it would have been smart to have her write it though..that woman knows what she's doing! lol...oh man couldn't stand Rachel as Gaia though...she did a good enough acting job with the crap lines and crap scenarios they gave her but still she really doesn't fit for Gaia...I can only hope they'd make a Fearless movie or re-do the show with pretty much everything different. :)

  • Thanks for posting it, I just found out they made this pilot and such I'm such a Fearless nerd I had to check it out...it's good they didn't turn it into a series though...it did pretty much stand on its own since nothing really came from the book except Gaia's character and a bit of her past...it would've been sweet if it did come from the book though, and if they had started in high school. I wonder if Francine Pascal had anything to do with the way the show's storyline?

  • the pilot was pretty interesting. too bad they cancelled it.

  • oh i wish they will change their stupid minds and show this series.

  • okay, after watching this and have never read/heard of the books i would say her character is more like a psychopath (like in the show dexter). I really liked this pilot and wish it would have become a series, even if it didn't follow the book, some minor tweaks and you could have had a cool and unique cop(FBI...) show

    RLC is smoking hot too...

  • Copyright law? The producers got permission from Pascal to make the show!

  • Thanks for uploading! Does anyone know whether there were anymore episodes every made?

  • this would have been a great tv show. How did you find this show..

  • Man this show wudd have been cool it sux dat they ddnt even give it a chnce!

  • Thanks again for uploading this pilot. Its a shame they did not air this show. It looks great. I was so looking forward to watching it.

  • Just to be repetitive, thanks for posting this pilot, too bad it wasn't picked up as looks like something we'd all give a shot of..

  • ah I love thiss

  • ive never even heard of the books before watching this, so from an outside opinion, i think it could work, but a little more adventurous storyline would be needed because theres only so far you can go with a person being Fearless

  • I think this show would've done a lot better as a stand-alone show instead of being based off of the book. Then again, the whole copy-right thing would've come into play and the show never would've happened anyways...

    but still, I think what ticks ppl off the most is the fact that there were so many changes. If the show had no connection to the book, then it would be much better received.

  • i was also glad to see bianca lawson as someone on the WB that wasn't kendra the vampire slayer. eric balfour has always has always had small roles in shows that doens't last very long so i'm glad to see he finally gets a main role. overall the show got my atention but hey it had mine when the show was introduced on the WB orginally (but never aired). too bad the WB didn't see what a gem they had before they cancelled it. this just show that wb aka cw has serious problems with doing this.

  • I am so glad to see fearless posted on here. i'm a huge fan of ian somerhalder and i was so upset that i never got to see any eps of the show. rachael leigh cook did seem to have no emotions expect when she was with ian's character. like when he was on the floor about to cry it seemed that she had empthy.

  • i agree that ali larter would've been a good gaia...she has the look, but i don't know if she's as pretty as gaia is supposed to be. but overall, they should have stayed true to the book, and started at the very begining, when she was in high school...because THAT storyline would've kicked ass all on its own.

  • They can't do it exactly like the book because of the copy-right law. That's why so many movies and tv shows that are based off books always are a little different.

  • You clearly don't know anything about copyright law. If persimmon was given by the rights owner, which it was, they COULD have followed the story EXACTLY if the chose. However that never works, the structure of movies and television are different from writing in books/graphic novels and if you simply take events and dialog word for word every thing just ends up being a string of cheesy one liners. (see Sin City and you will know what i'm talking about)

  • they should make another fearless show and make it for when they were in high school!! this one is good too

  • But would it be as interesting with Gaia in high school rather than an FBI agent?

  • i thought that she was supposed to black out after fights? oh and i wish this show came out!!id totally watch it

  • Kick ass show too bad it didn't pan out

  • Her voice was kinda annoying, but overall I enjoyed it. I liked the chick, it just wasn't Gaia. Gaia is blonde, and that kinda bothered me. Maybe Ali Larter or Milla Jovovich in RE, but someone blonde. I liked it though, I thought it was entertaining and if aired, I probably would have watched.

  • Jerry B, awesome director. unfortunately, i don't think he kept up too well on the series, or did siginifant reading into the character. Critics were right to say she came off just emotionless, not fearless. Anger's an emotion, and when they were holding her head under water she should have been PISSED. I don't know... has a lot of potential, definitely. Don't assume it's going now

  • She was pissed!! She kicked their asses and had a gun drawn on one of them.

  • Agh her voice is sooo annoying!!! I mean i know she has no fear, but having no fear doesn't mean you have no emotion...shes just FLAT. Im glad the show wasn't made its a piece of utter shite.

  • Well it is only one episode. How can you just not say she has no emotion after one episode. She did show emotion, just not to much of it. In most of the scences she did a person would show fear. She has no fear, so it made her seem emotionless. And has for the voice, you must not like the actress very much because that's how she pretty much talks in all her movies (except when she did the voice of Tifa from FF7:Advent Children)

  • it a good show...i would watch it if it air.

  • It was good, Although It seemed like every scene was about her showing how fearless she was, and how much the needed to talk about it...I get thats the point of the show but it still seemed somewhat forced...other then that it would of been a great show...too bad it wont air...

  • Thanks so much for putting it up. I liked it.

  • i hate her voice, it's annoying!

  • Thanks for posting the pilot. I really wanted to see the show when I heard it was coming out.

    Jerry just messed with the book too much for it to be good. Too bad.

  • Entertaining show, but the one thing that bothered me is that they acted like not having fear was like this awful freak thing. Who the hell would care? I think that's why the show didn't make it, no one ourside the show cared. Her 'problem' just doesn't seem like a problem...

    Thanks for posting the pilot though, it was fun on an otherwise boring night.

  • I agree not having the fear gene is no big deal but I thing that maybe the suggestion was that without it she tended on being reckless at times.

  • yeah, which is what made the show interesting. I liked that she was fearless. My point was that pretty much everyone would think that's cool, so its not much to be self consious about.

  • I understood your point.  I hope you did not see my remarks as an attack on you.

  • No, just conversation.
