Join Hitler and his pirate robots on a hacky journey of learning. Eight video tutorials on how to create a great video pilot (starring Jack Black, with a cameo by Andy Dick as a police car). Just be aware... true success in the entertainment business entails a lot more than just decent cinematography.

Thinking of committing suicide when your pilot is rejected? Heartfelt advice from Shallow Hal: "If it's that easy to kill you, you're a waste of life."

Yeah, but the Nazis sure made some kickass internet television pilots...!

Sadly, so far Acceptable.tv has been pretty unacceptable.

I've been laughing at Homeless James Bond.

To think: all the money I wasted on film school.

I thought Homeless James Bond was pretty clever, really. And Cirque du Soliel - Sex Crime Investigators actually made me chuckle a couple of times. Mostly just when the bird guy would crow at people.

Homeless James Bond is one of the better pieces, I agree. That said, acceptable.tv has a lot of entries that are ... well..., like GavinR said, pretty unacceptable.

Oh, Ryznar and Harmon, how you've fallen since your days of mocking smooth music.

I mean, honestly, if they just put old Yacht Rock episodes on VH1, they'd do better.

I liked the Bond and Cirque and Mr Sprinkles.

Homeless James Bond 2 is just as good - complete with 'car' chase...
