History Series / HeatVisionAndJack

* TheFaceless: We get a flahsback to Heat Vision as a human but the audience never gets a good look at his face before getting turned into a motorcycle. Doubles as TheVoice.

* TheyFightCrime: An astronaut and a talking motorcycle.

It stars a not-quite-famous-yet-but-still-hilarious Creator/JackBlack as Jack Austin, a former astronaut that had been exposed to inappropriate levels of solar radiation, and thus becomes super-intelligent whenever the sun is out. Accompanying Jack is his friend Heat Vision, a talking, sentient motorcycle voiced by Owen Wilson, formerly his best friend Doug who was transformed after being hit by a NASA Laser Beam. Pursued by NASA's top agent, Ron Silver (playing himself), who wishes to do experiments on his brain, Jack travels around the country, blocked at every turn... by adventure.

* TheJuggernaut: Ron Silver is apparently superstrong, immune to bullets, and doesn't flinch when heavy machinary gets smashed over his head.
** [[spoiler: Although getting the rug pulled out from under him renders him unconscious.]]

* TheDanza: Jack Black as Jack Austin.

* OneEpisodeWonder: Or more like '''One Unaired Pilot Wonder'''.

----

* CelebrityParadox: Notably averted... Ron Silver plays himself as both a secret government agent and character actor. One person he encounters even notes that he's "the bad guy from ''{{Timecop}}''".

->''"This was a gigantic missed opportunity. If you made a TV show today with Creator/BenStiller, Owen Wilson and Creator/JackBlack, it would cost you $250,000,000 and be about three animated trolls helping a girl reunite her divorced parents at the center of the Earth. And the only way you could get Ron Silver involved would be with an actual Timecop."''\\

A notably high quality OneEpisodeWonder action-comedy pilot written by [[{{Channel101}} Dan Harmon and Rob Schrab]], passed on by Fox in 1999, that seems like something that would've been inevitably ScrewedByTheNetwork had it been picked up.

* JustForFun/XMeetsY: ''Series/TheSixMillionDollarMan'' meets ''Series/KnightRider''.

* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Jack laspes into this when he's three times smarter than the world's smartest man[[hottip:*:who then becomes the second smartest, but whatever.]].

All that exists of it is the pilot episode (labeled Episode 14: The Eyes of Paragon) wherein Heat Vision and Jack face off against a telekinetic, stripper-killing alien broadcast. The pilot was directed by BenStiller, who also cameos as the Strip Club's DJ, and whose girlfriend, Christine Taylor, appears as a female sheriff called in by Ron Silver to investigate.
