    The original big bang pilot is on YouTube in pieces. It's worth a watch. So is the opening to young MacGyver and the early 2000s lost in space pilot

    Korgoth Of Barbaria: an crude and bloody animated Conan like series

    Lookwell: A washed up actor believes he can actually solve crimes himself. Written by Conan O'Brien and starring Adam West.

    Heatvision and Jack: Starring Jack Black and Owen Wilson as his talking motorcycle and directed by Ben Stiller. This is a weird parody of Knight Rider, the Six Million Dollar Man, and Buck Rogers.

    Mockingbird Lane: A wonderful modern update to the Munsters

    Clerks is also worth watching just to see how bad a TV series can adapt a movie. I'm not talking about the cartoon by the way, I'm talking about a live action TV pilot. It feels more like Saved by the Bell than anything Kevin Smith would have come up with.

    You have to give The Amazing Screw-On Head a watch, it brilliantly adapts the story and art style of the comic book and is just a whole lot of fun packed in under half an hour. How that didn't get picked up I'll never know.

    The failed Justice League Pilot is so bad and fun to watch. It's basically a mix of friends and a superhero show.

    I got that pilot on iTunes, of all places. No idea if it's still available.

    Time Tunnel (remake) where a government lab created a time storm changing history and a team is now created to preserve the new time line from being further changed.

    City Beneath the Sea: Irwin Allen project about an american city beneath the Pacific Ocean.

    Rewind: another time travel show. Movie starts off with a nuclear bomb going off in NYC. Gov't uses a secret time travel project to prevent the circumstances leading up to the bomb.

    The failed Wonder Woman 2011 pilot starring Adrianne Palicki is so bad it is fun to watch. Thank Zeus it never made it to series and we got the Wonder Woman movie instead and we get Adrianne as Kelly on The Orville.

    I never understood why they were gonna make mercy reef with Hartley instead of the dude they used in Smallville but then used him as green arrow in Smallville and kept using the original aquaman
