Awful spoof schlock-TV-series pilot that's somehow managed to build up a cult following. Goes for the bad=funny vibe but forgets about making any of the gags witty or well-written, making the experience feel like watching a comedy performance put on by a group of 5-year-olds. You can stick it out til the end, but Ben Stiller's two-minute intro is genuinely funnier than the entire 28 minutes that follow.

So dumb it's very funny. Cheap effects and hilarious to see the stuntman was so obvious in a scene. "Some of you will be frightened, or.. aroused". Hehehe

Hilarious spoof of classic "man on the run" TV series like Six Million Dollar Man, and Incredible Hulk. It's easy to see why this didn't get picked up (it's too bizarre), but it is a shame that Fox isn't daring enough to air something like this anymore, as it's hysterically funny. I've heard rumblings that Stiller is trying to turn it in to a movie, and if so, I'll be seeing that opening night.

A fairly amusing satire of TV buddy cop shows. It's so quirky and self-aware I'm not sure if it could have maintained itself as a TV series, but as a pilot, it's pretty funny.
