Yeah
Fargo
Alright, alright, you guys watch more TV than me, jeeze
There have been a lot of really bad pilots though. Seinfeld was brutal for example
I assume we are only talking about recent TV pilots. Preferably completed shows, but I am fudging a little here by saying some of these arenât complete but there is no way their pilots wonât be remembered as perfection.
Breaking Bad
Game of Thrones
You
The Handmaidâs Tale
The Boys
Mad Men
House
The Mandalorian
Stranger Things
Legion
The pilot for Game of Thrones was so awful that they refilmed it with a new cast.
I disagree with the Breaking Bad pilot. It was fine, but for what the show turned out to be, it was WAY off of expectations.
The Boys was REALLY good though
I havenât seen the pilot in maybe a year. I will watch it again. Maybe I will have the same perception, especially with El Camino and the last season of BCS.
True.
Parks and Recreation
The Office (US) (s1 almost got the show canceled)
30 Rock
Family Guy
Youâre the Worst
Just watched the first episode of Futureman on this recommendation. Top notch harmless hokum
Excuse me?
ETA: OH. Dang man, you were that close to a perma.
Never seen it :)
Watch it immediately.
Hulu.
Go now
The pilot you just said sucks?!
No, I said the pilot wasnt as good as the rest of the series. Just like Breaking Bad.
Youâre The Worst is in my top three shows of the decade.
V well v well I will put it on this moment
Turns out I already watched the pilot at some point and never watched another episodeâŚ
Good news is I donât remember watching it. Though I suppose that could be bad news depending on your POV.
Oh, and episode 1 (and most of the series) is quite NSFW, so if you have people around who are young or sensitive to that, maybe watch it with headphones.
Just dont stop is my suggestion. The first 4 episodes are fine, 5 and on are great Season 2-3 are legendary.
