Sorry for the Greg Grunberg & Jeff Fahey fans out there, but this post has nothing to do with the show LOST, but instead with lost tv pilots.

In college there were constant rumors about a lost tv show so unbelievably perfect that I obsessed for hours searching for what I considered to be the holy grail (at that time) of Internet videos: Heat Vision & Jack. A pilot created by Ben Stiller for the FOX network which featured Jack Black as a crime-fighting, former Astronaut and his talking motorcycle, voiced by Owen Wilson sounded like a project from my friends and my wildest dreams. When it finally completed downloading it instantly became a cult classic among my roommates, watching it countless times and passing it along to all friends and house guests.

Of the thousands of lost pilots out there I’m sure few hold a candle to Heat Vision & Jack, although Conan O’Brien and Robert Smeigel’s Lookwell featuring Adam West is a notable exception. (Thanks to Eric Appel for the Lookwell link).
