How do you know this will be good?

First off, let me say I'm intrigued by the plot of 'Faceless'. I enjoy Sean Bean's work.

But I look around here and everyone is saying that Fox would be completely stupid not to pick this up - but how do you know the show is good? Sometimes things just don't work out. You can have a good cast and crew and a good plot and it can sometimes just not click.

I'm not trying to start a fight (honest!), just curious.

I was reading this webpage (http://www.deadlinehollywooddaily.com/exclusive-cheat-sheet-on-network-pilots-chances/) and it has this to say about Fox's reaction to 'Faceless':

Faceless: "Shooting was a disaster & FBC is not happy with cut." "The temp is lukewarm."

I don't know if the site is legit, I stumbled across it.

Thoughts?

I'm not sure - all I know is that Fox picked up two further pilots today, neither of which were Faceless (they were Primary and American Crime). Looking at the list I posted in my first post, the writer said that 'Primary' was rumoured to be getting picked up early this week, and it has. So that makes me feel its legit. But with 'American Crime', the writer said it was 'so-so'.

I don't know how this affects the chances of 'Faceless', if at all. Anyone know how much space Fox has for new pilots?
