Sketchies

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: 

• Another episode of Smiley person, angry person

• Overly concerned parents talking themselves out of being concerned about something they should be concerned about

• Reinterpreting Judas

• News telling us what to think

• Asking for purpose – for forgiveness, for permission

• Renegotiating a contract

• Walk club, walkers

• The Other Door.
• A complicated horror mystery thriller that will drive you mad.  
• Preview. Just show the door.
• Tantalizing picture of a mostly naked woman next to the door. 
• Then a man doing the same. 
• Then a kitten.

• Lip gloss king- I even wear it on my body

• Cleaning out closet- going over old memories

• Creating your own politician

• Bearing false witness

• Smelling golden opportunity
