Worst Show Ever! (Pilot Candidate)

[Ajax]

Pilot Candidate is a waste of a good time slot on ASA. Come on who here stays up and watches PC. In my opinon PC rips off Evangelion which they should be showing instead of that crap. PC is exactly the same as Evangelion. I pity all who think evangelion will never show on ASA. If they can air YYUH they can air this show. So who here think PC should be replaced with Evangelion, if not something better

I agree the PC should be replaced with EVA, but you're out of your mind if you think that EVA's content is even remotely similar to YYH's.

Try watching both of the shows since you clearly haven't watched one of them. Pilot Candidate can't get further apart from Evangelion. Cut out the typical lazy response about any post-1996 anime and pay close attention. Heck, you don't even have to pay close attention. Evangelion's though provoking, somewhat mature, and extremely entertaining. PC is a little kids show that does its best to drive the audience to insanity. The only true similarity between the two is the fact that their dubs are horrid.

Bah...I swear some of you folks don't know from comedy. PC is great, but for all the wrong reasons. It's like, the script translation is so bad that it just BEGS to be made fun of. And it has some of the silliest scenarios too. It's cliche in a lot of ways, but it wallows in it.

I know some folks can't stand to sit through it and all but you're just taking it (and your cartoon viewing) way too seriously. If you've ever been a fan of MST3K, just think...what would Joel (or Mike, whoever you prefer) and the robots be saying while watching it? Just think of that...it'll be okay.

Also, if I was Bandai, I'd seriously think of tapping into the cult comedy possibilities for the show. Things like reissuing the DVD's (or putting out a seperate one) with audience partitipation scripts and such. I can see it now, midnight screenings, people in terrible costumes and ugly jackets smoking toothpicks, folks yelling at the episodes, people throwing stuff on cue...just like Rocky Horror, except in space.

Hmm... it does kinda come off better as a comedy I for one find myself laughing out loud all the time with this show, mostly during the dramatic scenes.

PC a comedy, yo playas are you sure your watching the same show I am. If you mean a comedy as in the show is stupid, thats cool but comedy as in jokes, then there showing that anime way to late at night cause your whack. Yo Sheamon, for your information I have seen both anime.

THere is no question that this is the weakest show on the Adult Swim Action block. I feel bad saying it stinks because the animation is pretty good (if the CGI was gone, it would be even better). The story is just disjointed, they start one thing, never explain it, then remind you that something happened just to make you angry. A lot of the stuff that has happened could of been in earlier episodes instead of drawing them out.

I can see how the MST3K thing can work ..... AT FIRST. But after a while, it's the same thing over and over. How is that any fun? I will watch PC to the end just to be nice.

PC's not too bad it's just trying to be something it's not. I think they should try to remake the show and do a better job on it all the way around. And I wouldn't mind seeing Eva on AS.

PC is not that bad for a block just starting out. Maybe in the future PC will be moved to Toonami but untill then it is decent. Plus, maybe it is time to stop comparing it to EVA.

The only good anime shows on Cartoon Network are Cowboy Bebpop and 008th MS team and maybe OutlawStar. All the others are lame-ass. Especially Dragonball and all its filthy relatives. Magical Powers and monsters are for little babies and fruits (Princess Mononoke was intresting but it was a movie and it isn't on CN).

Pilot candiate is truly, as Bart Simspon once said, "craptacular". It is the weakest show on the Adult Swim Action block, but the only reason it is on is to supplement the block untill better, less edited shows appear. What are those shows? Ever since CN lost Slayers to Fox, it's kept mum about any aquasitions. So I don't know. What I do know is that it won't be on more than two whole runs.

[fignuts16]

pilot canidate is a good filler show but i'd hate to see cn keep it permanantly

[Katana]

Pilot Candidate would obviously be more enjoyed if it was less edited...but it's impossible to view it uncut without purchasing it. I started liking it for a while, but with all of the bad lip-synching and the editing of blood, death, and even episode titles; I kind of lost hope for this anime.

[kachuke]

i don't mind pilot candidate it is a good filler show....i'd much rather watch a poor episode of pc that i haven't seen then another episode of scooby doo or the flintstones i do love the dubbing that is some top notch work

Ahmen.

Well, maybe Inital D will take it's place. <If they can get it>

[Nitrowax]

ya ya hehe its like the borinest show ever! NO ACTION i say to myself but noooo, they never listen! I NEED ACTION! BLOOD, KILLING!

[dawnyoshi]

Pilot Candidate? Worst show ever? NOO! I had no idea! lol

Full heartedly agree with ANYONE who posted here mentioned they hated the show. I'm sorry, but I have used toilet paper that's more entertaining to look at than PC (if you thought that was bad, you should try reading my mind. I was about to post something MUCH worse. )

Pilot Candidate is a stinky peace of bloody dog (explitived deleted).

[Parallax]

I think PC is a decent show.Its so bad its good.
