Ben Stiller directed this 30 minute pilot, about the smartest man on earth (Jack Black) who solves crimes along with a talking motorcycle (voiced by Owen Wilson). FOX never aired the 1999 show.

Ok. I’m not sure what to say. Is this bad? Yes. It is quite awful. But am I enjoying it? I am enjoying this immensely. Special effects on par with 80′s-90′s BBS sci-fi (Red Dwarf timeframe). Acting almost as refined as that found on Killer Clowns from Outerspace. A script that even the A-Team would have turned down. I wouldn’t have been surprised to see the series ending have “Mr Silver” get “merged” with a real bullet, just so he could take out Jack with a “Silver Bullet”. I’m also a fan of Vincent Schiavelli (Paragon). I would have enjoyed hearing this among the list of cancelled FOX shows in the beginning of the “new” first episode of Family Guy. Ben? I know you’ll never read this, but… make more and sell them on iTunes. I’ll buy them. At $3 a piece, you’ll made at least $39 for the 13-episode season. I would be all over that. Oh, and Dalek’s ROCK. I need to wake up to more old Doctor Who re-runs.
The sun-giving-power theme and agent-always-chasing theme may be in homage to the show The Phoenix, which lasted 4 or 5 episodes. Of course The Incredible Hulk is in there too.

It’s a great spoof of all the shows I liked when I was a kid! Along with the other lies though, this is not 1999 is it? This is BRAND NEW!

This is pure television gold. It should be required viewing for anyone hoping to making a TV pilot.
