Fox Force Five

Fox Force Five is a fictional television program as well as the name of the organization spotlighted in said program that is referenced in the 1994 action/crime drama Pulp Fiction, directed by Quentin Tarantino.

Fox Force Five was a proposed action series that had been optioned to a network. A pilot episode was produced, which starred up-and-coming actress Mia Wallace as one of the team members, Raven McCoy. According to Wallace, the title of the series stems from the fact that they are all "foxy" chicks, they are a force to be reckoned with and there are five members of the group.

Raven McCoy - the only character on the show that was referenced, was a circus performer and the granddaughter of an old vaudevillian comedian who left her his supply of jokes. One of the gimmicks of the series was that at the end of every episode, Raven would have told a new joke. Mia Wallace told the joke to Vincent Vega, which was:

"Three tomatoes are walking down the street- a poppa tomato, a momma tomato, and a little baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind. Poppa tomato gets angry, goes over to the baby tomato, and smooshes him... and says, Catch up."

As it turned out, Fox Force Five was never picked it up, thus bringing an abrupt end to Mia's acting career.
