FSW: Blind Date
Please forgive me ahead of time for a boring sketch. I’ve had a rough week and didn’t get to this until an hour ago. It’s not good. Seriously. Sorry. Blind Date(Meredith sits at a small table in a stylish bistro with a glass of wine. She is fashionably dressed. She frequently raises her eyes from…

Friday Night Sketch War: Round Twelve
After last week’s light battle, the warriors return with vengeance on their minds and blood on their hands. Three great armies amassed to vie for contested land. Who would prevail? Would any survive? Would any live to sing songs of the clash? Coyote led the charge atop a mighty warhorse, leading a terrible horde of…

FSW: Rachel Ray, $40 a Day
For the whiny little bitches – you know who you are – who are going to read this and say “you’ve never been with a real woman…you wouldn’t know what to do…curves…hawt…” whatever. Rachel Ray’s genetics are showing through. She’s going to be a fat old Italian woman someday. Facts are facts. So what? I’m…

Friday Night Sketch War: Round Eleven
This week was a light one. Three scouts met while surveying a potential battlefield and got into a fight with non-lethal ordinance. Coyote threw wiffle balls at the others… Michael blew spitballs… Red sprayed foam… This week we’ve got Pyrotechnic Parties, Camping Trips, and Tortured Artistes. And if you get a chance, stop by David’s…

FSW: Party Planners
Allow me to preface this sketch with a preemptive “meh”. High concept, but it really goes nowhere. Not without a multi-million dollar budget to make it all happen, at least. Hmm… Party Planners(A large number of people fill a cavernous hall, dressed formally. The lights go down, and crossing, moving spots cut through the darkness.…

Friday Night Sketch War: Round Ten
Oh, the humanity! Three score and three days ago Michael and I brought forth on this internet a new challenge, conceived in Comedy, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created funny. Now we are engaged in a great comic war, testing whether that challenge, or any challenge, so conceived and so dedicated,…

FSW: Five for Health: Homemade Drugs
This one’s a bit different. Most of you reading this should (hopefully) note a passing similarity to a certain television doctor and insane performer. This sketch had originally been intended as part of a C-story for a spec, but I’ve never been happy with my plans for the A-story and have put that spec on…

Friday Night Sketch War: Round Nine
We’ve got an interesting battle this week. Back from the brink of doom (probably after making a Mephistophelian deal) Michael is firing on all cylinders. Red’s got a new home on the web, but didn’t join in the festivities. David channeled his inner Sondheim. It was a slugfest out there today… Michael launched an early…

FSW: Barista Blues
Barista Blues(Meg and Dex stand behind the counter of an upscale coffee house. He: late 20s, detached and jaded hipster. She: 18, fresh-faced, straight from the farmland. Dex is showing Meg how the brewing equipment works.) MEGIt’s not a lot different from the one back at the Starbucks in Grover’s Corners. I should be able…

Friday Night Sketch War: Round Eight
I’d been holding off on reporting the results of this week’s battle in hopes that Michael would make it out of the M*A*S*H unit, where he was playing grab ass with Hot Lips Houlihan, in time to post. He’s been under the weather this week, and in Chicago, there’s been a LOT of weather this…
