That's back when they were burning off unsold pilots as summer filler. A lot of odd stuff made it to air during the late '80s and early '90s that way. It's odd when you consider we have a lot more outlets for scripted television today vs. the late '80s, and so many more pilots are made each year, and how few of them actually ever air.
