Despite being a home for proven, unique voices, FX has passed on Charlie Kaufman’s pilot How & Why.

Perhaps, the story that follows a man who can explain how and why a nuclear reactor works, but is otherwise clueless about life doesn’t fit quite as nicely as FX would like with the current run You’re The Worst, Married, and Louie. 

Still, How & Why is being shopped around and we hope it lands somewhere to see John Hawkes star as the mostly clueless Goodman Hesselman and Michael Cera play his boss.
