CBS Salvages Borat-y Pilot with Online Debut

After two years in development, one never-greenlit CBS comedy pilot will finally see the light of day — via an online debut, starting today, on the network's Innertube broadband channel. The Papdits, written by Da Ali G Show's Ant Hines and deemed to have some of the flavor of Ali G creator Sacha Baron Cohen's current theatrical release, Borat, follows a fictional family from Kashmir as they travel across the United States in an RV. Sounds to me like a lampooned international family's vacation.
