      OK. I've been thinking. What are the most perfect TV pilot episodes, the ones that hook you, make a statement of intent for the show, and define what the show is about? 1/

      For instance, right now I'm watching the first episode of ER on @hulu. It is surprisingly as awesome as I remembered it. 2/

      Oddly enough, another perfect first episode is the first episode of @WalkingDead_AMC. It set the stage. It had an awesome cliffhanger ending and defined what the show would be. 3/

          Another fantastic pilot: Hill Street Blues. It looked like a 3rd or 4th season premiere of a TV show that had been firing on all cylinders in its previous season. 4/

          Going even further back, the first episode of St. Elsewhere was quite fantastic. St. Elsewhere is on @hulu. 5/

          Oddly enough, the NCIS pilot was actualy surprisingly good ( in retrospect). I don't know why, but I watched it recently, but I did. 7/

          TWD opening scene is excellent TV.

          I think the pilot of Walking Dead was one of the best pilots I’d ever watched. Too bad the show long ago jumped the shark
