  • FSW: Death of a Henchmen

    So last week, TheWife suggested I write my sketch on gatherings about a funeral. I already had an idea in mind which I liked, so I decided against it. But when it came time to pick this week’s topic, I was happy to burden the other guys with funerals! This way, we ALL get to…

  • FSW: Gathering Edition

    Another Friday, another sketch. Let the games begin. Richard is up and ready with a sketch that might be my favorite to date. I’m sure it has nothing to do with my own tendencies to write about high school crushes and the voices that guide us.Ken has a tale of witches that think green. Dave…

  • FSW: The Reunion

    Newest warrior Ken got theme honors this week and selected gatherings. I’ve been only moderately happy with my entries of late, so I reached back several months to a sketch I’m still quite proud of for inspiration. This entry would benefit greatly from a second draft and a little polish, but I’m posting this early…

  • Friday Night Sketch War: Back to School Edition

    We’ve been ambushed! Michael gave us this week’s theme and we set about sharpening our bayonets and targeting our rockets and seducing our Rockettes. Before either of us (or David, still bone-weary from last week’s beatdown) could get in a shot, our newest and boldest battler launched a salvo! David might still throw a last-minute…

  • Friday Sketch War – Back to School Edition

    Wow. A week’s gone by. I guess you gotta be careful when you start looking for change. Cause then things change.Anyhow, it’s Friday. I’m very exicted to announce we have a new battler in our midst. Ken has been spying on us from San Francisco and decided to join the fight this week. Be sure…

  • FSW: New Pants

    Michael selected this week’s theme: back to school. I thought about using a scene from my spec sequel to the Rodney Dangerfield classic, but it’s just too good to waste on the likes of y’all. Instead I give you… NEW PANTS(TOM, early 40s with a comb-over and MEMBERS ONLY JACKET, and his son BRANDON, 11…

  • Friday Night Sketch War: Payroll Edition

    This week sees the return of the three-man battle royale edition, and to grease the skids for his reentry to the fight, David picked this week’s theme. And then? He just managed to set his bomb off with seconds to spare in the fight! Next week’s theme has been selected by Michael and is back…

  • FSW: Payroll Edition

    This week’s theme was “payroll”.Richard said he had trouble with it, but turned in a fine sketch none the less.No word from the theme originator yet.Here’s my effort this week. Not crazy about the ending. But it’ll do for now.Next week’s theme is “Back to School“. And, as always, if you’d like join us, simply…

  • FSW: Highway Robbery

    Not my best work. I’m going to leave it at that. I think it’s a cute-ish setup, and I don’t mind the payoff, but it’s clunky and clumsy and the dialog sucks. Sorry. Blame David for picking this week’s theme of payroll. Michael’s up for next week’s theme. My fingers are crossed that it doesn’t…

  • FSW: Disney Edition

    “Disney” was the theme tossed out by Richard this week in honor of his applying for the Disney-ABC Television Writing Fellowship. Here’s hoping it was just the push he needed to get accepted.His sketch this week brings us the Walt-cicle taking in the Olympics.Dave jumped in last week after getting a reaming from the creator…
