Coulda (shoulda) been a contender...

I've only seen a handful of unsold pilots, and I say easily the one that I've seen that deserved the most to have sold would be Twisters.  Bob Stewart tried the "start the question, end the question" format seveal times, and here it worked wonderfully.  In addition, there was the wonderful presentation with Shoot for the Star's theme and the awesome shuffleboard table.  Plus, Jim Perry really fit well as host.

Malcolm had potential, minus, well, Malcolm. :-)

I absolutely concur.  Malcolm itself was just goofy, but the underlying concept of two-word answers with each word given by a different person is one that I wouldn't mind seeing worked into something plausible.
It was a golden age of daytime network television... Game Shows... Hosted by people who actually knew that the game was the star... And I wish it was still that way - both that game shows were on all morning and that they were hosted by actual game show hosts. - Bob Purse, Inches Per Second
