Episode 1
Long before "The Office," Rainn Wilson tried creating his own TV series. He reveals the first idea he ever pitched, a TV series called "Assisted Living," where two slackers inherit an old-folks home. Never picked up, the show now sees the light of day for the first time ever.
Episode 2
When Kristen Schaal was in college, she came up with the idea for a short film called 'Avant Garde' that, yes, lived up to its name. The film never got made ... until now.
Episode 3
A movie studio once told Jay Chandrasekhar and his Broken Lizard comedy troupe to write any movie they wanted. So, naturally, they created a film with an astronaut who was a cat and called it 'Mickleberry: Cat in Space.' The studio ended up passing on the project, but we said, "Yes!"
Episode 4
It may come as no surprise that 'Weird Al' Yankovic was once an accordion repo man ... for real. But what might be a little more shocking is that he created an action-hero movie based on his experience. Now the movie is brought to life for the first time ever: 'Weird Al's' 'Accordion Repo Man.'
