All2ReelToo - A Pop Culture Podcast

In this episode of our PILOT ERROR series we look at the TV pilot for short-lived sitcom The Duck Factory (1984).

The premiere episode introduces Skip Tarkenton (Carrey), a somewhat naive and optimistic young man who has come to Hollywood looking for a job as a cartoonist. When he arrives at a low-budget animation company called Buddy Winkler Productions, he finds out Buddy Winkler has just died, and the company desperately needs new blood. So Skip gets an animation job at the firm, which is nicknamed "The Duck Factory" as their main cartoon is "The Dippy Duck Show".

Jim Carrey, Julie Payne, Nancy Lane, Jay Tarses, Clarence Gilyard Jr. , Don Messick, Teresa Ganzel ,Jack Gilford and others star.
