Podcasts about Lookwell

We recap the first week-or-so of Trump Era 2.0, and then, because we can all use a larf right now, discuss LOOKWELL (1991), the legendary unsold sitcom pilot starring Adam West and written by Conan O'Brian and Robert Smigel. PATREON-EXCLUSIVE EPISODE - https://www.patreon.com/posts/120760912

Since we'll briefly mention Adam West in our upcoming episode on Thursday, we figured we'd post this outtake from when we covered Lookwell in Episode 55. Needless to say, Greg struggles to try and figure out what the hell FOX was airing in 1991.

Is Lookwell a one season show because it aired one time in the summer of 1991? No. But we're talking about it anyway? Yes. But we're also talking about talking about it so I guess that's fine? No. But that's what Derick wants? Yes. But why should that matter? Anyway, by now you could have listened to it.

Season 8 begins with a mystery: Why are we watching another show created by Jonathan Groff??? Andy Barker, P.I. was a 2007 midseason replacement vehicle starring Andy Richter and Tony Hale and you can't watch it anywhere because even Peacock has chosen Father Of The Pride over it. Brian Sadecki is with us to try and find where all the jokes went.

“it takes a psycho” (April 30, 2023) Barry is not a sitcom, though it was frequently one of the funnier shows on TV. We're doing a bonus summer episode about it anyway because its gay character, NoHo Hank, is a rarity on TV because he's both a villain and a person who doesn't let his sexuality define him. That's not necessarily a good thing, but we're all about complex, messy queer characters, and this is one people should be talking about. Special thanks to Emily Heller for sharing her recollections of working on the show. SPOILER WARNING: We will talk about major plot points from Barry through season three, episode four.

“Blood Crieth Unto Heaven” (January 27, 2013) Yes, we're giving you two American Dads this season, with this one representing how this show uses high-concept premises better than most other sitcoms. In this one, the show presents itself as a stage play, complete with all the restrictions and encumbrances that come with denying itself the ability to do quick cuts, and what results is as funny as it is bizarre. Here to discuss why this episode is a stand-out is Johnny LaZebnik, who sings the praises of Wendy Schaal's comedic delivery. Should this technically be a Weirdest Episode Ever? Sure, but here's the thing: When we label episodes in the main feed as this, you all tend to click on them less. Will dropping this on the main feed with a non-Weird title get us more listens? Only time will tell. Subscribe to Johnny's Substack! Listen to Johnny's previous GEE episode, where he discusses writing a Simpsons with his papá.

“Bad Girl” (November 12, 1996) If you were not the target audience (and target age) for this live-action Nickelodeon series, you may be shocked to find out that The Secret World of Alex Mack is a sci-fi show. It's basically Spider-Man with a baby gay lead protagonist, played with remarkable aplomb by Larisa Oleynik. We're joined by Katie Mathewson, screenwriter on Hawkeye and the breakout hit Jury Duty, to discuss how very queer this show is — and in particular this episode, which plays out like a mid-90s lesbian teen romcom. Check out Lizzie Borden (no, not that one), who directed this episode and may have played a role in giving it its queer vibe.

This month we offer up a classic favorite episode, the Quixotic adventures of actor turned annoyance to police work, Lookwell, written by Conan O'Brien and Robert Smigel and starring the one and only Adam West! This is one we bring up quite a bit as an example of a failed TV Pilot that is actually worth watching. We will be back soon with new episodes, but for now enjoy this old one.

This week we review Lookwell (Pilot)Lookwell was a television pilot written and produced by Conan O'Brien and Robert Smigel, the latter of whom would become a primary creative voice for O'Brien's late night show.It starred Adam West. Despite being a "personal favorite" of NBC chairman Brandon Tartikoff (who had left that position by the time the pilot aired and was replaced by Warren Littlefield), the pilot was not picked up as a series. It was broadcast on NBC on July 28, 1991, in a summer weekend timeslot reserved for burning off pilots which the network had passed on and has since become a cult classic.It stars Adam West as a washed-up TV action hero—who at the peak of his career was ceremonially deputized by local law enforcement and falsely believes he can solve crimes in real life. His student Jason (played by Todd Field) becomes his sidekick.Written by Conan O'Brien & Robert SmigelProduced by Lorne MichaelsDirected by E. W.

On this week's tripleheader on It Was A Thing on TV, Mike, Chico and Greg wrap up their series on unsold pilots with a legendary unsold pilot and two amazingly bad ones. (Hey 1-for-3 is sometimes considered a good day at the plate).   First, the gang looks at the unsold 2004 reboot pilot of Mr. Ed. This is exhibit A on why classic shows should not be rebooted.  Mr. Ed was piloted in 2004 for FOX but like almost anything on FOX, this show had an edgy FOX twist.  Also, the computer graphics in this show were horrible, even for 2004.  You can see this pilot at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze5IBEMoUR0.   Next, Considered by some to be the best show which never made it to TV, Lookwell is a brilliant cop show spoof done by Lorne Michaels, Robert Smigel, and a young Conan O'Brien.  You can view this pilot at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBQ3HbB0c8Y.   Finally, for now, we wrap up our look at pilots with a very bizarre one from 1990, where a dead cop's soul enters the body of a bulldog.  Poochinski is a weird pilot you have to see at least once.  You can view the complete pilot at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LytgLZDzzAY.   Remember to follow the show on Instagram and Twitter over @ItWasAThingOnTV and e-mail us on feedback and suggestions for future topics over at contact@itwasathingontv.com

We finally finished "The Punisher" season 2 on Netflix. We provide (as always) a spoiler-free review of it. What we are more excited about is finding this week's "Retro Pilot Review". It's a little show that never made it past the pilot, but was written by Conan O'Brien and Robert Smeigel, starring none other than Adam West. 1991's gem of a comedy series pilot: "Lookwell!"

Holy podcast, Launcheads! We’re covering Lookwell, the story of an actor turned detective written by Conan O’Brien and starring Adam West. We talk crime fighting, Batman, and the genius of absurdist television. Watch the pilot here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBQ3HbB0c8Y

Ed is joined by his friend Mac this week to cover the 1991 NBC pilot, Lookwell! This show stars Adam West as an aging TV detective who thinks he can solve real life crimes, written by Conan O'Brien and Robert Smigel (the show, not the real life crimes). Pitches include a stand off between TV detectives, a flashback episode, and a series finale with a huge twist. This is one time where something wasn't better left unaired!   Theme song by Sounds like an Earful, licensed under Creative Commons

John is joined by Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension to celebrate the birthday of Adam West.  In our tribute, we discuss Adam's style of acting when it came to pre and post-Batman series.  We look some of his best moments on Batman and also discuss other roles outside the series.  John enthuses on Lookwell, a pilot Adam starred that should have gone to series.  Finally, they discuss his resurrection today as a pop-culture icon and how that has paved the way for the interest in the Batman series on its 50th anniversary.

It's a real BLAST FROM THE PAST as PRODUCER FRANK is back from Africa!

It's one of the most notorious one-episode wonders in television history: LOOKWELL, a sitcom that aired on NBC in July of 1991, and has gone on to become a cult classic. Created by Conan O'Brien and Robert Smigel, and starring Adam West (BATMAN) and future Oscar nominee Todd Field (IN THE BEDROOM), the sitcom is about a former 1970s cop show star (West) who still thinks he's a detective, and uses his acting skills to solve crimes in his spare time. And he has a LOT of spare time.  But did LOOKWELL deserve to last for only one episode, or was it... CANCELED TOO SOON? This week, William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take a closer look, and make the final call.
