Captain Mack was a live-action British children's show from 2008 to 2010, about Captain Mack, who works for the Sky Rocket Control in Sunshine City, keeping an eye on residents to protect the city from trouble. There was a stop-motion pilot pitched to CiTV in 2004/2005, which was produced by Cuppa Coffee Studios and Kickback Media. This version of the series was originally planned to broadcast around Fall 2007, originally Fall 2005, and Spring 2006. However, due to a change of plans, the entire show was redone and production was taken over by Fireback Entertainment, resulting in the Captain Mack we know today.
The stop-motion pilot ended up being unaired, and not much content from the pilot had resurfaced besides what was available before its official release.
