Skletchy

Preface: Wanting to write for SNL or some paying sketch comedy TV gig… it’s important to keep up with the activity.  There isn’t a much better way than practicing to a standard, in this case I'll be using SNL's.  As mentioned in my writing goals list, SNL asks its writers to pitch sketch ideas on Monday and have fleshed out sketches early Wednesday morning.  So… every week I will try to pitch aboot 5-10 sketch ideas.  See what people think about them and choose 1-3 to write (everything depending on time).   

Possible Sketches:

• A man or woman’s hidden thoughts, watching them make faces at their computer and typing creepily

• All of the other stuff a person gets done at the office
• probably vis a vis (the boss or a co-worker does all of these amazing things while the other worker does work)

•  Gun registry
• "really it’s easier if we just tag  and release you into the wild naked and hungry."

• Stay tuned for another episode of Nobody likes Bill

• Sasha and friends Super Special Blowy Bubble Time

• Another evening with Dr. Mad Scientist- (a talk show)

• Two / three people talking about which one had the worst day.

• Bedridden Joe.

• Killing your dinner.

• How to spot a vulnerable person who’ll probably have sex with you if you just say hello.

• Sock puppetry

• Don’t tell my boss

• Confession booth (pay to tell?)

• Alien Monster 
• the alien monsters have trashed every building / room except one. 
• “this is the last room we have to trash?”
•  it's pretty trashed, kinda trash it half-heartedly
• Perhaps the person is still in the room, looks like a rodent. "Jesus, what is that?"

• Exploiting dinosaurs

• Stay Tuned for Slap talk 
• Next up: killing strangers

• Spot the herpes

• Bakery sketch

Progress:

New sketches written:

•    A knock off of the game show Singled Out (didn’t realize it till later)
•    A humorous, sci-fi folk song.

Why don't I post them on here? Hmm... a copyright thing, I s'pose. Worry aboot people stealing lines and fully-fleshed ideas.  Stealing these small bits isn't as a big a worry as there could be a large divergence in what I wrote.  Also, maybe I don't to give a better surprise for later in case I can produce/film them.

So, in general, why am I showing off these ideas? To illustrate that I keep coming up with new ones, each week to test out.  One-hit wonder-stuff is Boo-Shit.
