This week on Saturday Night Jive we're talking some television pilots that never got picked up to see a full season that feature some SNL alums. We watched Norman's Corner starring the late, great Gilbert Gottfried and written by former SNL writer Larry David. The also late and also great Charles Rocket stars as a spaceship captain in the sci-fi spoof Star Patrol. There's also Supernerds starring Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn, and one-season SNL alum Sarah Silverman. We watched the practically flawless pilot for The Grubbs starring Randy Quaid and a pre-Arrested Development Michael Cera. Then we cheated and watched Where's Rodney? starring one-time SNL host Rodney Dangerfield because we were enchanted by the theme song. Should any of these shows have gotten the chance to entertain the masses? We think two of them should, the other three are probably right at home in history's dustbin. Enjoy!
