Rare gems rescued from the secret vaults of Hollywood!
TV pilots that were too controversial, too idiosyncratic or just too damn funny for prime-time. Each show screens with an exclusive intro from the writer/producer who created it, giving unique insights into Hollywood and the creative process. Curated & hosted by Beth Lapides ("Un-Cabaret", "100% Happy 88% of the Time", "My Other Car is a Yoga Mat").
This screening features:
HEATVISION & JACK, an awesomely ambitious action-comedy written by Rob Schrab & Dan Harmon and directed by Ben Stiller. It stars Jack Black as a super-intelligent ex-astronaut, Owen Wilson as the voice of his talking motorcycle, and Ron Silver as himself, the villainous actor/NASA enforcer. Intro by Ben Stiller.
NORTH HOLLYWOOD is an hilarious, and surprisingly realistic, semi-autobiographical story about aspiring actors on the fringe of Hollywood by Judd Apatow ("Freaks & Geeks", "The Ben Stiller Show", "The 40-Year Old Virgin", "Happy People"). It stars Amy Poehler ("Saturday Night Live"), Jason Segal ("Forgetting Sarah Marshall"), January Jones ("Mad Men") and features a great turn by Judge Reinhold playing himself. Intro by Judd Apatow.
LOOKWELL is the legendary pilot by Conan O'Brien & Robert Smigel, written especially for Adam West as an actor who once played a detective on TV and can't let it go. Intro is an extended exclusive interview with Conan O'Brien by Other Network creator Beth Lapides.
