A friend sent this over to me. I watched it, thought it was great and wanted to share. So here you go.
As you may or may not know, I spent most of last year creating a tv show called Three Strikes with my writing partner Alex and our old friend Jon Stewart. After we'd shot the pilot, Comedy Central decided that the show was too expensive to produce as a series. Perhaps the all-you-can-eat Beluga caviar station at the craft service table was a bit extravagant. My bad. Anyway, someone out there with tech skills aplenty has found a way to load the show up on YouTube, and while it doesn't look great, this will probably be your only chance to see it. So behold, our million dollar internet short:

It's about baseball, kind of. I broke the links, as the content is not safe for work. I bet y'all can figure out how to make them work. It's late-night comedy fare, done well. I watched all three parts straight through, and laughed out loud several times.

Looks like Viacom pulled it. Background info (and an interesting article) here:

No worries. At least the LA Times article you linked to turned me on to the Aquaman pilot. I was pretty surprised at who the creators of Smallville picked for the role of Aquaman.
