It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

not fair that they let Seth MacFarlane make this show but not these guys

maybe this should just be the next season of the show. at this point what's the difference

the “what we were up to in 2020 with our pandemic loan” episode is probably my favorite comedic wrap-up of what it was like living through that year

Wow at that pilot.

There should be a streaming service just for pilots that were never picked up.

Chad Coleman of the Wire got to you use this as a stepping stone into space and the Expanse I guess?

They used to show unused pilots over the summer way back when; and they also recycled the scripts into episodes of Love, American Style when that show was on.

feel like there could at least be a good YouTube channel out of that sort of thing. I love abandoned pilots because it's like a glimpse into an alternate TV reality. and a reminder that so many ubitiquitous long-running shows never would've happened had someone not liked that first episode.

weirdest one I've ever seen was called "Dog Police" - based on the novelty hit by the band of the same name - I think it's supposed to be cute but the prothestics were pure nightmare fuel. to make things even weirder, Adam Sandler and Jeremy Piven are in it! not as dogs, though

The pilot episodes of shows that were picked up and then completely re-shot are kind of an interesting oddity. Different casting choices are usually the main thing, because the network decided to place someone higher profile, or enough time passed that the actor from the pilot wasn't available

Gave up on watching this consistently some seasons ago, but randomly watched the one with Bryan Cranston the other day. Them thinking Aaron Paul was Malcolm in the Middle is a very good joke.

That is possibly the weakest episode of the last season btw

it’s still pretty funny, though. Dee thinking that Frank is actually traveling and not committing fraud with the plane was a good bit of

I think about the EV episode a lot. Haunting Dennis showcase.

I finally watched the BlackBerry movie and Glenn is excellent in it

yeah kinda begs the question of why he doesn't get more serious roles, he's such a convincing psychopath
