Failed Pilots

>>91244777
I remember they invented the WHEEEEE.

I REALLY love the art style of the shorts.

I mean, I'm glad Billy and Mandy won in the end, but WOW these are really stylish.

Billy and Mandy won first place, got its own cartoon

Robot Jones won second place, still got a cartoon later that didn't survive long

Longhair and Doubledome won third place, didn't get its own cartoon, just a second pilot episode.

Also Jess Harnell's voice is hilarious.

Here's one I like

I remember playing as the tall one in that Cartoon Network RPG

I wish Hood had gotten a series. It looked cool, inflation fetish aside.

Prickles the Cactus.

It can of got a sequel as a flash short, but I wouldn't have minded more full episodes.

For those that never saw it, the creator has both pilots on youtube.

BEHOLD /CO/MRADES
I've always wanted to know your opinions about this pilot that aired in Cartoon Network around the 2000's
To be honest it creeped the fuck out of me

Pan, no one wanted to watch that beatnik garbage bullshit.

catchy theme isn't it?

Maybe it's because I'm a grown manchild now, but that single episode filled me with so much bitterness.

I bet this would've had forced relationship drama if it became a show.

>>91247322
Man, the animation, the art style, so cool. It really suits the cavemen theme.

>>91247219
>>91244777
At least Prickles, Longhair, and a couple of others got to star in that Cartoon Cartoon Resort game.

>>91246292
Everything about this show seems great except the protagonist. He just doesn't scream 'main character' to me, even though it's a cool concept he seems more like a sidekick.

Hellbenders.

Here's Coffin Dodgers, a pilot from the creators of Drawn Together

>>91244777
It looks like a good cartoon. And longhair looks like a fun Wander-tier character.

It pains me that it didn't make it yet. Maybe if only they put some more waifus.

Not just because of Zone, honest.

>>91249268
Is that related to that video game that came out a few months back?

>>91247442
>two kids trying to decide what complete stranger to follow around based on how interesting they look
Up to a good start.

>>91247219
Also, on the off chance I'm not the only one who liked that, they made a sequel in flash that definately shows its age.

He works for me. What do you even see as a "main character" character?

>>91247442
Well this was fucking weird.
Had I seen it as a kid I would have probably disregarded it as a fever dream or something.

I remember voting for these shows. I'm pretty sure this is how Kids Next Door came to be.
Commander Cork was my favorite though:

Regular Show was like that and it lasted for 7 seasons, so why not this?

>>91249637
It was already a cult classic before Zone did his thing. But not many people remember.

>>91249846
Not at all

This was basically Pokemon before pokemon, and was made to capitalize on POGs
also ignore the annotations, this is the only YouTube video of the whole show I could find

>>91249637

What was the show that beat this one?

>>91252930
Hey man, I loved those Annotated guys. They're like MST3K for the literate.

>>91249249
It didn't fail, it was just handled extraordinarily poorly by its creators.

Zach & Chris had an offer to put Leo and Satan on TV and instead chose to dick around with retard and homo jokes starring literal self-inserts, but they couldn't even get THAT much finished.
Now Sleepy Cabin is dead, Oney is sleeping on Egoraptor's couch or something and PsychicPebbles is probably making childlike shrieking noises for homeless heroin addicts to jerk off to under overpasses in-between Johntron videos.

Fucking loved this, would've probably been comfy as fuck.

Though KND was the more deserving winner honestly, and probably would've lasted longer then Kitty

any one have the link to danny antenucci's snotrocket pilot?

Just so memory serves me correct; KND, Megas XLR, and Billy and Mandy are the only shows ever to win their way on air through viewer votes, right?

Do we thank waifufags or condemn them?

Oh Sorry I thought you guys would find those annotations irritating

also you better enjoy those videos while you can, cause on May 2nd 2017, annotations will be gone from YouTube

Those neanderthals also appeared in another short of his:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdMXI3G8r-U
For what I understand the idea is to use the sales of the graphic novel for a third short that will include a neanderhtal little girl the main characters have to babysit (pic related).

>>91254582

The ability to add new annotations will be gone, existing annotations will stay up

You had me worried, anon.

Was this an pitch for what would end up becoming Time Squad? Or does it just share creators or something?

>>91246292
so many cool ideas, great colour palette and composition of shots, ruined by bad animation, bad writing, and a less-than-stellar protagonist.

i love mignola, but i don't think his stuff translates to animation too well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHUgmPijjIA
one of the two co-creators (John Mathot, who did the art and storyboards, but not the writing) was a storyboard artist on many primetime shows (mainly the simpsons), was a writer/boarder on Phineas and Ferb, and is currently a writer/boarder on star vs

>>91253731
I thought the Leo and Satan thing was offered to be put on by trip tank. I'm not too sure it was a good or bad decision. On one hand trip tank was feces, but it could of gotten them their foot in the door.

>>91260340
>ruined by bad animation, bad writing, and a less-than-stellar protagonist.

But none of these are true. Did you even watch it?

>>91247442
absolute fever-dream core. i like two main kids' designs and voices and some of the visual gags were clever, but something about the art style just creeps the dickens out of me.

>>91247786
This pilot was ahead of it's time.

>>91247442
I'm getting a Sally Cruikshank vibe from it.
