- Hey guys -- Hillary, 15:21:45 10/17/06 Tue
So I've been pretty AWOL since starting college. Student theater is my life now, for better or for worse. I'm probably going to be a theater major, actually, god help me. Maybe a creative writing minor. I might as well put in a plug for a live radio noir show that I work on called The Dead Hear Footsteps. Sundays at 5 EST (although not next Sunday, fall break) during the school year, at www.wobc.org. We're the only radio noir show that still records live that we know of. (Well, except for a couple of sound effects we can't do live, like squealing car tires or breaking glass.) Hopefully we'll start podcasting eventually.
But anyway, I'm posting upon the discovery of an opportunity that may be of interest to those of you still in college. Second City Chicago is finally offering a semester study away program they call Comedy Studies.
<a rel=nofollow target=_blank href="http://www.comedystudies.com/index.html">http://www.comedystudies.com/index.html</a>
Very exciting. I may apply to this program for next year, we'll see.
I'm fairly optimistic about the coming season of SNL. Thank god they finally got rid of Horatio. And there haven't been a lot of stupid celebrity sketches so far. Some of the sketches they've had this year have been really random, actually. Which is excellent. Like the Poland Spring one? I have a feeling that was Dane's idea. Because he's just that random.
Also, poor Rob Riggle has landed a new job as a correspondent on The Daily Show. In case any of you don't watch The Daily Show. Which would be a shame.

- What did everyone do with the break week? -- Jim Bevan, 22:48:47 10/14/06 Sat
Just wondering how the writers spent their week since there was no new show. I myself have been practicing papier mache. I made a dog out of newspaper, but it was disobedient so I had to smack it's nose with a rolled-up golden retriever. (Ba-dum-ching!)
But seriously folks, I've just been busy with schoolwork, and trying to get some sketches written for the John C. Reilly episode. Hopefully it won't just be Mark and I sending in submissions this week. Take care all.

- Behind the Scenes: Saturday Night Live -- Patrick, 22:53:42 10/14/06 Sat
I borrowed an interesting videotape from the university library yesterday, which appears to be an exclusive academic library item so check your college library media collection next time you're on campus!
It's a broadcast courtesy of the University Satellite Saminar Series, taped on 4/19/99 at the Museum of Television & Radio. The panelists are Lorne Michaels, Al Franken, Jim Downey, Tim Herlihy, Tim Meadows, Marci Klein, and Michael Shoemaker. It starts off with the introductions of the above, then a few minutes of sketch and musical guest clips from '75-'99, a couple of general questions from the host of the presentation, then on to live phone-in questions from college students around the nation (pranksters, many of them).
I posted a few excerpts online. The embedded videos are in the Reply.

Maurice - Undecided

Cut to a dumpy, mullet haired, middle aged, blue golf shirt and jeans wearing man talking into camera for a commercial.
Dumpy Man - And please, support the big three by buying domestic, even if their cars aren't as reliable as Japanese cars, or as stylish as European cars, or as reliable either...or as stylish as Japanese cars. Please. Really Plea--- The camera frame freezes with the mans mouth agape.
Announcer - This message brought to you by the United Auto Workers of America, urging you to support America by buying domestic - please, cause we only build 'em, not design 'em -it's not our faults! Were talking our livelyhoods here, our kids futures, and the whole brotherhood of unionists! So C'mon, we might just scratch your car if it's a forei--- The announcer's audio is suddenly cut off, and we cut to what appears to be another late night talk show host sitting behind a desk. The audience claps and cheers.
Dave O'Brien - Welcome back to the late night, obscure cable tv conservative talk show. I'm your host, Dave O'Brien. (People cheer) God bless America. (People cheer wildly) (Gets all fired up as he says next line) God bless the bible!!! (People cheer like crazy) Ya! The bibles awesome. (A few people cheer) Tonights topic is a common one - who's to blame for the crisis in the middle east, and what's wrong with America. (One guy whistles and then shouts "Luv ya Dave O'Brien, you speak it as it is!")
Thank you, and I love America! (People cheer) Ya know, at commercial break, I got to really thinking about what the problem is here - the whole wide problem. Do you know what the problem here is Maurice?
Cut to Maurice, a black man in his 60's, who happens to be the band leader of the show. He's wearing dark sunglasses and might remind you of Ray Charles, with his big grin and all.
Maurice - Ahhh, I don't know. What is the problem here Dave?
Dave OBrien - Well, if we could just go back to a clip of the second last caller, maybe you'll pick it up.
Cut to Dave at his desk as he taps a button on his phone.
Dave O'Brien - Hello caller, you are on the late night shift with Dave O'Brien.
Female Caller - Yes, I'd just like to comment on the middle east....and America as a whole.
Dave O'Brien - (Rolls his eyes) Oh boy. Go ahead.
Female caller - Ya know, I'm really frightened - I'm really, really frightened by what I see - not only by what's going on in Lebanon, but by what is going on in THIS country. (Dave shakes his head in disbelief)
I'm very concerned for my childrens future. What I'm talking about is this Neo-con attitude by our government. We need to stop fanning the flames of hate and start fanning the fires of reconciliation.
Dave O'Brien - And how my dear do you suggest we do that?
Female Caller - I truly think we should send Bill Clinton to the middle east - AND - elect Hillary Clinton as President.
Dave O'Brien - And why not send Jimmy Carter too so he can feel useful?
Female Caller - That is a good idea. Please, for our childrens futures, so they can continue to go to school and play soccer after school, we need to change.
Dave O'Brien - Thank you caller - well, not really.
Cut back to Dave in present time.
Dave O'Brien - Did you pick up what I was talking about Maurice?
Maurice - No.
Dave O'Brien - Would you like me to tell you what the whole problem with the middle east and with America is Maurice?
Maurice - As a matter of fact, I would Dave. I would like to know.
Dave O'Brien - Ok, I'll tell you Maurice - it's D-W-B-S-M's.
Cut to Maurice with a quizzical look on his face.
Maurice - That's an abbreviation! God damn! (He covers his mouth as if he said a real bad word)
Dave O'Brien - Yes it is Maurice, and it stands for Dumb White Bitch Soccer Moms. (He kinda looks around for a sense of what people in the audience think, his head bobbing around, as if he thinks he just revealed the biggest revelation - a little cocky and sure of himself).
Maurice - (Kinda feeling it out as he says this) Dumb white bitch soccer moms. Ain't that the truth!
The audience kind of claps. Somebody yells "Your Awesome Maurice!" Maurice just nods.
Dave O'Brien - Dumb white bitch soccer moms indeed. That is the whole problem with America, and I tell you people, and with what's going on in the middle east. Who keeps shouting anti-America slogans on the streets Maurice?
Maurice - Dumb white bitch soccer moms.
Dave O'Brien - Who is uninformed of the real issues in this country?
Maurice - Dumb white bitch soccer moms.
Dave O'Brien gets up and begins to walk about.
Dave O'Brien - Who was responsible for getting Bill Clinton elected? - TWICE!!
Maurice - Dumb white bitch soccer moms.
Dave walks up to the audience and asks a chubby woman in her late 30's -
Dave O'Brien - And who's going to be responsible for getting Hillary Clinton elected?
Chubby Lady - (Shy and smiling) Dumb white bitch soccer moms?
Dave O'Brien - Exactamundo. Now your not one of them are you?
Chubby Lady - No.
Dave O'Brien - I didn't think so otherwise you probably wouldn't be here - you my sweet lady, are nothing like them. You are informed of the real issues in America, AND the middle east. Maurice?
Maurice - Dumb white bitch soccer moms.
Dave O'Brien - Exactly. We'll be right back after these messages from our sponsers!!! (All excited)

- Anyone have advice on how to do "Digital Short" pieces? -- Jim Bevan, 15:50:51 05/22/06 Mon
I have a few ideas for "Digital Short" sketches for the summer season, but I've never done them before and don't really know how to execute them. Are there any tricks I should know, any special way of writing descriptive dialogue? I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks.
