The Hy Angst Show (partially found unproduced C. Martin Croker animated series; 1990s-2016)

The Hy Angst Show was an unfinished animated series done by the late animator/voice actor Clay Martin Croker, voice of Zorak, Moltar, Dr. Weird, and Steve, as well as an animator on Space Ghost Coast to Coast and Aqua Teen Hunger Force. The show was about Hy Angst; director of a "horror-host show" similar to MST3K but focused on cheesy monster movies. The episodes were taken from Croker and several of his friends' lives. The show had got as far as, at least to my knowledge, a three-minute trailer, a show bible/synopsis covering at least the first three seasons, several storyboards, and a set of character sheets.

Croker had said that he would talk about the show on his ArgleBargle! blog and upload the trailer to his Youtube account, though he hasn't and likely never will since he's dead. The only way to get a copy now would be to either gain access to Croker's computer or find a videotape of it. However, the concept work for the pilot still exists, if only in photographs, and there's mention of three seasons worth of a synopsis.
