DESCRIPTION
This volume contains two pilots:
- Daddy O (Unaired pilot - produced in 1961) Don DeFore stars as a handyman who is discovered by a producer and becomes the star of a popular TV show. The humor comes from his adjustment to sudden stardom. At the end of the episode Don DeFore, Lee Phillips and Jean Byron appear in a promo for the potential sponsor. Created by Max Schulman.
- The Dean Jones Show (aka ALEC TATE) (Pilot aired in 1965) Dean Jones stars as a young scientist who, when his parents die, raises his teenage sister with the help of a computer he developed that is supposed to have the answer to every human problem.
"A 'pilot' is a film made by a producer who wants to pitch the idea for a TV series to the networks. If the network likes the pilot, or if they air the pilot and it gets good response, the producer gets a deal to make more episodes based on the pilot... usually 13 or 26, which will then be aired. If those do well in the ratings the network will request more episodes for a series. Many pilots get made every year, some make it to the air - most don't. We have included first episodes of series in this category, even though they're technically not pilots."
