    Default unfilmed YCDTOTV scripts?

    I wondered, I heard of "unfilmed scripts", scripts of various series like Knight Rider, Hulk, Starsky & Hutch, Star Trek, Mannix, CHiP's, Dukes of Hazzard, etc....who wasn't filmed it all. I wondered if there was some unfilmed YCDTOTV scripts?

    Hmm. I'm sure BBOvenGuy could tell you that when he finds this thread. My guess is probably not.

    Well... not exactly, at least as far as I know.

    The nature of YCDTOTV meant it really wasn't necessary to throw out an entire script. All you had to do was throw out the individual sketches you didn't like. Some shows remained more "true to the original writer's vision" than others. For example, "Wildlife and Animals" is almost entirely mine - only two sketches that made the final version were by someone else - but I did almost two complete drafts on "Books and Reading" and had almost none of it make the final version. The same thing happened to the other writers, too.

    If you're wondering whether or not there's a script for a "lost episode" of YCDTOTV out there somewhere - chances are that there is, but I wouldn't know a thing about it. Plenty of unfilmed sketches, yes, but no complete scripts that I'm aware of.
