28 UNSOLD TV PILOTS
A TV pilot is how most television series finally get on to a regular broadcast. A proposed TV series is first presented as a test to see what kind of reaction it will get from potential sponsors and network heads. Unfortunately more pilots are made then ever get into a regular TV series. So why don’t some TV pilots ever get made into a regular TV series even when that pilot show features big name stars?
Here are 28 examples of some of those pilots for you to judge for yourself…..you will find everything from detective shows, comedy, westerns and drama. Stars like Brian Keith, Jack Albertson, Mike Connors, Eddie Albert, Craig Stevens, Martin Milner, Steven Boyd, Alan Hale, Emmet Kelly, Tom Sellek, Robert Urich, Jock Mahoney and even Wild Bill Elliott.
The quality of this set varies. Most are good to excellent averaging 8 in quality. A true collectors dream set. 3 DVD SET.
