This is one I have seen several times before. It is one of my favorites. A good, fun story filled with a lot of big names. If you haven't seen this one yet... I definitely recommend it.

My Thoughts:
Now... I know I never seen this "movie" before as I just got the DVD. The thing is... I remember this storyline pretty well. I know I have seen it. I have both Superman: The Animated Series as well as Batman: The Animated Series... I could be wrong here... but I am thinking that maybe this is a 2 or 3 part episode of one (or both) of these series that they also released as a separate movie? But that is fine... either way I enjoyed it.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

"In The Beginning" TV Pilot Marathon, a review by Rogmeister


Roger's "In The Beginning" TV Pilot Marathon

I've enjoyed reading the other TV Pilot marathons so I basically have decided to start my own...so here we go...



Everybody Loves Raymond

This popular sitcom starred Ray Romano as a married sportswriter with 3 children and his relationships with his parents and brother who live across the street from him and who constantly drop by uninvited.  This obviously infuriates his otherwise understanding wife (Patricia Heaton).  Ray's parents are played by Doris Roberts and Peter Boyle and his brother is played by Brad Garrett.

Today I watched the pilot to this series twice...listening to the audio commentary featuring Ray Romano and creator/writer Phil Rosenthal.  The plotline from the pilot could pretty much be any episode...it introduces the characters and we have a simple story of Ray's wife Deborah wanting to spend her birthday without Ray's always present parents showing up so Ray lies to his mother and tells them he's taking her away.  So they show up anyway as Ray is hiding in the house with his wife (unaware of his lie).  There's also a funny bit where Marie is very upset when Ray gives her a "Fruit of the Month" club...what's she going to do with 12 pears?  And there's more fruit coming next month???  And his dad Frank has again cracked their phone-answering machine code and is listening to their phone messages.  A funny first episode to a series that would wind up lasting nine years.

The audio commentary is informative, telling us about the changes such as recasting the twin boys, the changes to the set and how Brad Garrett wound up losing something like 50 pounds around the time of the 3rd season.
