This week on
Saturday Night Jive we're talking some television pilots that never got picked up to see a full season that feature some SNL alums. We watched
Norman's Corner starring the late, great
Gilbert Gottfried and written by former SNL writer
Larry David. The also late and also great
Charles Rocket stars as a spaceship captain in the sci-fi spoof
Star Patrol. There's also
Supernerds starring Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn, and one-season SNL alum
Sarah Silverman. We watched the practically flawless pilot for
The Grubbs starring
Randy Quaid and a pre-Arrested Development Michael Cera. Then we cheated and watched
Where's Rodney? starring one-time SNL host
Rodney Dangerfield because we were enchanted by the theme song. Should any of these shows have gotten the chance to entertain the masses? We think two of them should, the other three are probably right at home in history's dustbin. Enjoy!
