The Pilot
Not much is really known about this pilot. It featured two unknown Snorks (most likely background characters) that didn't apparently make it into the show.
The pilot was never fully shown to the public. Clips from it can be seen in a promotional spot they had for the NBC Saturday Morning kids' block with Alvin and the Chipmunks singing. It had clips from various shows including The Snorks.
