Every year, the networks have their pilot season. Many of the shows don't make it and you never hear about them again. Some actually make it on the air and onto the fall schedules. The networks are going to announce their new fall schedules in May (and we'll complete coverage here, of course), but Buzzsugar has a sneak peek at some of the pilots that are competing for a slot on the nets.
But it's not your typical sneak peek, it's a quiz! They list the plots for ten shows. Some of them are real, some of them are fake. Can you tell which is which? My favorite plot descriptions, whether they're real or not, are the comedy about "two soda salesmen on a never ending business trip," and the drama about "a girl raised by a pack of wolves who goes to boarding school."
(When you're done, the answers are here.)

I'm a "Seasoned Executive" - which makes me a little uncomfortable.

"A dramedy about the devil's bounty hunter, who reclaims souls that have escaped from hell"
Isn't that just Brimstone?

"A drama about a private investigator/vampire who's in love with a mortal"
cool, season 6 of Angel!
"A drama about a police detective who is secretly centuries old"
cool, season 1bis of angel (on Earth 717, Kate Lockley hires Angel to help solve crimes instead of going all parano about him)

I only get 6 out of 10 and it rates me a "Seasoned Executive"? I would've thought "Intern" to be more appropriate for such a poor performance.

Sounds like The Office: Road Warrior Edition.
