The third annual New York Television Festival is now taking place in the Big Apple. As we did last year, we will review each of the pilots in competition there. This is the fifth set of those reviews.

Last year at about this time I reviewed the children's and educational entries submitted to the NYTVF. Some were good, some were bad, and some where 'how the hell did this get nominated?'. This year, since there were so many comedy DVDs available, I assailed myself with a copy. Because I'm also a masochistic I also decided to pick up the reality/education DVD as well. Needless to say, my head is swimming.

The entries on the comedy DVD that I was sent weren't too bad. Out of the five that were presented, there was only one that I just had to turn off mid-way because it was just that bad. Otherwise, they ranged from funny to just white noise. You can see what I thought after the jump (and you can view the pilots on our own at MSN)
