The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" are once again exploring the fertile terrain of failed TV pilots to combine with the renewed TV project "The Void" that Ben heped craft in 2022 during the "Star Trek-ify" series of podcasts. This episode looks at two portentious dramatic pilots, 1995's "White Dwarf" starring Neal McDonough as a doctor on an alien planet divided into light and dark sides, and 2001's "Ice Planet" with a crew stranded on an alien planet on the other side of space.

Episode 408 includes:

-R.I.P. Dabney Coleman and Morgan Spurlock

-"The Fall Guy" is a fun celebration of summer blockbusters and the people who make them.

-"If" is a frustrating family film that doesn't quite know what it wants to be.

-Jerry Seinfeld's "Unforsted" is a bizarre novelty that leaves the guys baffled.

-TV Pilot Graveyard VII (Ice Planet, White Dwarf)

-The guys discuss the many ways both of these sci-fi pilots disappointed them and bored them, starting with "Ice Planet" and concluding with the truly inept and strange "White Dwarf," which was brought to us ourtesy of the same creator of "Wild Palms," the incomprehensible "Twin Peaks"-style ripoff show from the early 90s.
