This is, unfortunately, the only recording of "Captain Study - Back in Action" the first attempt to get this satire superhero on the air.

The idea is good, but as always the age of 2010+ makes itself obvious with the piss-poor flash animation, terrible voice acting and boring meme writing.
This could have been a nice children's show on PBS back in the 90s or an extreme action show in the 2000s
>>87440321
classic
>>87439984
Holy shit, this was awesome.
>>87440355
I imagine the final product would be far more polished and fleshed out.
>>87439984
Yet another 2000s "adult" comic-book esque cartoon. I recognize the art style. Looks like TMNT 2003, CyberSix and Batman Beyond.
It's a rarity now in the year 2016, but nothing that hasn't been done before.
I hope 2020+ will finally give us actual mature cartoons for intelligent people, not wannabe edgy teenagers.
Hey anyone feel free to give your opinions on these:

The first post for 3 Dog Band didn't have the correct video link.
The only videos that exists for Katbot was in its web-series format. The Disney version would have been more professionally animated, but they cancelled it mid-development. This image is literally the only thing Disney ever put out to the public.

Anyone remember the voting thing Cartoon Network did for a few years? Billy and Mandy, KND, and Megas XLR were the winners. Whatever happened to Robot Jones? also eventually got picked up, but there were plenty of pilots from that that never went anywhere. They did continue to play them every once in a while as "cartoon cartoon shorts"

It still pains me that TBBT is popular but that show never even got made

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHUgmPijjIA
But then that was basically just off-brand Green Lantern anyway.
I remember they had two votes actually, and that KND was in contention with Megas XLR during the first vote... But then got made into a full show anyway.
>>87441032
Nope. The third year actually changed name from "The Big Pick" to "Cartoon Cartoon Weekend Summerfest" but there were three. Bag Boy was from the third year as well actually. KND was still in production at that point though, so they did show a sneak peek during it. Maybe that's what you're thinking of.

I remember seeing this pilot on air in highschool. Makes me sad it never got a full series cause I loved it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mTtJlBkack
Oh hey, created by Chris "Loud House" Savino.
>>87439954
>Unaired due to 9/11.
Not true. The creator tried to unionize animators so he got blacklisted.
>>87440482
lmao could they have made those trees any more rapey? It's not a complaint I found it funny.
>>87440482
Also caught the Dark Souls reference with the prince and the way he was layed out and all. Pretty sweet. Lots of references both obvious and not packed in these shorts. This could have been a pretty good show.

Infinity Train is clearly gonna make it past the pilot stage. So many CN originals are getting canned. Surely, the network can't rely entirely on Steven Universe, We Bare Bears, and cheap reboots alone! They're not that stupid, right?
http://youtube.com/watch?v=CnDrUhAJrdk
>>87444070
Mighty Magiswords.
>>87440051
ironically that's probably what it's most known for at this point.
>>87444077
Getting reworked into Family Guy kind of means it got aired right?
>>87444181
Depends.
Larry and Steve was more lighthearted and geared towards younger folks, probably 8-14 but with humor appreciable by the 16-21 year old babysitters. More antics, more slapstick, more cartoon.
Family Guy is autistic 'adult' situations padded heavily by cutaways and "Remember when..." or "Like that time with X and Y doing Z?" and heavy political/social/anti-religious in-your-face shit with that underlying tone of narcissism that makes one enjoy a show less?
I really don't see the big deal about 99% of the pilots /co/ creams their pants over. I don't think a Modifyers or Kitty Bobo series would have been that great
>>87440075
I remember seeing this on TV when I was at home with a fever and not being sure if it was real
>>87440794
>>87439954
Think of the porn we would have gotten
>>87440108
man, they really should crowdfund it to make a full season
>>87440907
That was actual pretty cute

It's more hitchhikers/classic british sci-fi than Space Dandy but I guess there's similarities

>>87444258
Seasons 1-3 of Family Guy kind of had that Larry and Steve-ish humor and feel though
There were still some cringeworthy jokes, but the humor seemed to be more based on witty dialogue and the show had a fairly light-hearted feel (compared to the later seasons which have lots of gore and characters being dicks to one another)
When the show came back in 2005, that's when it started to diverge from what it used to be
>>87440912
>>87441032
>>87441100
CN tried to revive this in 2005 with a new showcase called Sunday Pants. It was short-lived however.
Of note, it's one of the few pre-2008 CN shows where they got away with saying things like "damnit" and "what the hell"
>>87439936
Do the creators of the pilot know about the Zone flash?
>>87440051
the pic is from the zone flash isnt it
Forgotten pilots have such a bittersweet feel to them.
Kitty Bobo

Also, have Magical Children Doing Things.
The only decent video of it for non-Americans is from some Korean streaming website.

How long has this actually existed for?
I need to know so that I can be appropriately sad about it never being a full show.
>>87451139
since 2015
>>87439976
I just watched this shit. I'd love to see it come to being an actual show. We gotta figure out what that number means.

>>87440766
Why is the whole dimension-hopping (especially lost in dimensions and searching for home) so popular in cartoon pilots?
>>87440766

>>87453426
David Hyde Pierce, Niles Crane from Frasier.
>>87444077
Oh hey, it even has Proto-Quagmire.
>>87442643
Who did the animation and character design for this!? This looked like the guys who did Ben 10 a little?
Had a slight anime eye like look to it too. Really curious who were the artist behind this
>>87445847
That actually looks pretty fun. If it had proper VAs then I could stomach it more.
>>87445847
Okay, I admit I laughed a lot at this.
>>87453033
Ellie from Last of Us, my dude. Also known for Gwen from Ben 10.

I should clarify, I was talking about Infinity Train. Not sure about the other one.

Must be weird knowing that a porn parody is the most popular thing to come out of your failed cartoon pilot.
>>87448839
IIRC Magic Children Doing Things is a one-off short, so it likely wasn't going to be a series in the first place.
>>87440856
That was comfy. It could have made it as a series.
>>87440962
Still salty it didn't get a series.

>>87444907
My nigga.
I don't see it working that well right now, though. Not much audience for animated horror.
>>87440494
I remember having a discussion about this with a friend. What was the last dark cartoon we had? And no I don't fucking mean dark from time to time, in case someone throws steven universe at me or adventure time, I'm talking about a dark theme, like Courage the Cowardly Dog or Flapjack. I really miss those type of shows.
I'm not sure if this counts but I am posting it anyway.
