Was episode 2 going to be a flashback episode full of episode 1 clips?

This isn't "US Version of The Young Ones/IT Crowd/Red Dwarf" levels of bad idea, but woof. Not feeling it.

It looks less like anything made by View Askew and more like every back door pilot episode Married With Children had made for potential spin offs (i.e. "Top of The Heap", "Enemies", "Radio Free Trumaine", etc). I bet the guy who pressed the button on the laugh track died a little on the inside every time he did it. Kind of funny that they still implemented the same graphics for the opening and closing credits and incorporated the songs "Making Me Sick" by Bash & Pop and "Can't Even Tell" by Soul Asylum from the movie's soundtrack (although that kinda makes things worse, since it shows they kind of knew better).

That dude has the Dante voice down. But it doesn't have a clerks feel at all. Though I only watched a few minutes of it.

I remember watching this last time it was posted. Actually had a funny joke. I don't recall it.
Think it was about a rap sheet.

I may have even posted it last time to be honest.
I'm like Phil Connors here sometimes.

I thought this was the worst unaired pilot I'd ever seen.
Then I saw the Revenge of the Nerds pilot and had to rethink things.

I've seen this. Yikes, it was bad. I'm relieved to know that View Askew's TV legacy will be the Clerks animated series and not...whatever this was.

I find it both amusing and depressing that both Brian O'Halloran and Jeff Anderson auditioned for this, and both were rejected.

It's been a while since I watched it but isn't Keri Russell in it?

speaking of unaired pilots...
There's also unsold pilots for Adventures In Babysitting and Turner and Hooch on Youtube among others

With Jim Breuer as Randall Phew, glad this went the way of Fox Force Five and became nothin. Ugh, dated (even for 1995...looks more like 1992) and just plain stupid. Then again, I can't stand the dudebro-ness of the mid-90s.

That sucked. And why did they add the ice cream vendor? He completely screws up the Dante/Randal dynamic.
