Defining the scope of this article

This article is a bit out of control. We need to create a lead that establishes its parameters and then move forward with the list that conforms to those parameters. Specifically, a story is not just a pitch. It must have been definitively greenlit, with some kind of actual commissioning of scripts. Just a few lines in a series bible or a letter to the production staff doesn't make a "lost story". There is, in other words, a difference between an unsold story and an unproduced story.
