In 1998, ABC commissioned two 30 minute TV pilots from John Safran. Media Tycoon focused on the media industry. It became infamous for a segment where Safran turned up to Ray Martin's home and harassed him in tabloid style. Master Chef focused on the food industry. Notably it featured a cooking segment where Safran prepared a beef dish. Martin's connection with an executive at the ABC is suspected to be the reason the series never made it to air. Though all unsuccessful, the pilots became hits via the Internet among university students. The ABC finally aired these in 2009, the decision to do so is suspected to be because the aforementioned executive no longer worked there.
