I'm a big fan of new media and truly believe the web will be the host of the next wave of original broadcasting.
The problem is that there's quite a bit of crap out there.
Recently, Forces of Geek profiled Gavin Lance and now I'm happy to present another amazing webseries, Fidelity Hall.
Fidelity Hall is a sitcom about a lawyer, a dentist, an adult diaper executive and a guy who works in a cubicle, who are still hanging onto the dream of making it as a rock band even as they pass their prime.
The best part about it is that it's extremely well executed. Like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, it's set in the City of Brotherly Love and was created and stars a group of friends. Fidelity Hall is a real band, played by its real members, and is a mix of scripted and improvisational dialogue. The supporting cast are both professional actors and other local musicians.
The show stars Gene Schriver, Darren Griswold, Michael Ferrara and Lem Pidlaoan and was created/written and produced by Schriver and Griswold. Mike Sterling (The Butterfly Effect II) also produced and the pilot was helmed by director Chris Bradley (Pittsburgh, John E. Edwards Is In Love).
It's a little raw at times, but it is funny, well acted and extremely entertaining. Fidelity Hall might be the best show that should be on television.
Watch the pilot after the jump
