... A Father... A Son... Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2005)

As I work my way thru my IMDB Watchlist, I'm moving titles I've seen here and rated them. The 8-10 stars are always good for another viewing.

"Good Bad or Bad Bad" is a movie review show where we watch the most godawful movies we can find and laugh about them.  Then we decide if they are Good Bad or just plain Bad Bad.

Every year, a number of television pilots are filmed -- "test episodes" for potential new shows. Some of them get ordered to series, and those pilot episodes often become episode #1 of the new show. Others, however, are unable to hurdle that barrier and remain unsold -- not picked up as a full television series.

Note that "unsold" does not necessarily equate to "unaired" -- many of the pilots listed here have aired on tv, either as a backdoor pilot (shown as a tv movie, or as an episode of an already-running tv show from which it was intended to spin off) or "burned off" (aired as a tv movie or a one-off episode among the summer reruns, or incorporated into one of several anthology tv series that consisted entirely of rejected pilots). Others have seen the light of day as extra features on DVDs, or straight-to-video releases, or in a few cases were even bumped up to theatrical releases.

I've started moving ones I've seen and/or have (i.e., I know they're at least marginally available) to the top of the list -- so far that's #s 1-976.
