After the success of "Blazing Saddles," WB decided to convert the financial success of that film into a television show called "Black Bart" (the title Mel Brooks always wanted for "Blazing," which was deemed too controversial).
They made a pilot starring Lou Gossett Jr. that was never made into a TV show. Remember Jackson's speech to Travolta in "Pulp Fiction" about pilots? Yeah...
Well, here it is, another one that didn't get off the ground, and reasonably so. It's included on the new 30th Anniversary DVD of "Blazing Saddles."
It's not funny at all and features the word "n!gger" at least three times within the first three minutes. No wonder it never got aired.
