Emma Roberts‘ new show Delirium may not have gotten picked up to series (tragically), but fans of the source novels will have at least one thing to keep them going: on June 20, Hulu is going to make the Delirium pilot available for streaming for a limited time.
The Delirium show was to be based on an excellent YA book series of the same name by Lauren Oliver, which I highly recommend you pick up. Sure, the premise might sound a little silly – in a dystopian future where Big Government has developed a cure for love, one girl has to fight back to save society before everyone becomes feeling-less robots. But, while the first book might succumb to some of the typical YA-dystropias, books two and three see the female protagonist morph into a layered, complex, rebel bad-ass. And it’s a fun ride, especially for fans of the genre.
If you’re interested in checking out the pilot, it will be available at hulu.com/delirium for 30 days starting June 20. The pilot also stars Billy Campbell (Helix), Michael Michele (Gossip Girl), Jeanine Mason (Bunheads), Corey Reynolds (The Closer), and Gregg Sulkin (Faking It).
