You know the thing and no one picked up your thing

And so you buried the thing

That's not the end of the thing

Don't you like eyes yet there's a spooky surprise

And the cook cannot devise

And nothing ever really dies. The Dead Pilot Society.

Welcome to Dead Pilot Society, the show that takes comedy pilots from A-list writers that were sold and developed at networks and streamers, but never produced and gives them the table reads they never got a chance to have.

I am Andrew Reich, the creator and host of Dead Pilot Society.

First of all, I want to thank everyone who joined or boosted or upgraded during

Max Fun Drive. We so appreciate your support. We have such great listeners and fans on this show.

And Ben and Britt and I truly appreciate you. Look, you know, we may not be the biggest podcast or

or the best podcast, but we are a podcast,

and we appreciate you being with us. And because of you, we have made it to quite a milestone.

This is our 200th episode. And for us, that is a big deal. I mean, there are a podcast that

can just kind of shit out episodes. Let's face it. They're just people talking. They can just do one a day if they want it. But we have to find scripts and then put together the amazing cast that we always have. And it's a lot of work. So to make it to 200 episodes feels pretty major. To be clear, 200 episodes doesn't mean 200 pilots.

We're still ways from that.

This, though, will be our 118th pilot.

I'm bringing you today.

That is a lot.

In honor of our 200th episode, we got some nice testimonials from writers whose pilots we've

read on the show. So we're going to play a few of those now, and then whose pilots we've read on the show.

So we're going to play a few of those now and then some more at the end of the show.
