  • Peter’s Commentary on the “CSI: Anywhere” Edition

    Here’s my commentary for the latest round of Sketchwar, which had the theme “CSI: Anywhere.”

  • CSI: Anywhere Wrapup

    Damn Horatio Caine and his concern about cataracts!

    Depending on how you want to count Ken’s brilliant four-part runner, this was either a banner week for us with eight sketches, or an average week with five. I think for voting and wrapup purposes we’ll call it five.

    So what did the sketch warriors bring to this weeks topic?

    Next week’s topic should provide an interesting challenge to our loquacious band of warrirors: Silent Scenes.

    If you think you’ve got the comedy chops to do battle with our scarred and bitter warriors, if you dare step into the hailstorm of seltzer and cream pies, if you think you’re MAN ENOUGH or WOMAN ENOUGH to make us laugh, write a sketch and contact us at submissions(nospam)@sketchwar.org.

  • CSI: Alaska (part I)

    Hi-dey ho, sketch-a-rinos!

    Sorry for the absence – last week was a rehearsal / performance filled blur, and this week started off the same way.

    But neither wind nor sleet nor lack of sleep can keep me from my appointed rounds.

    I’m going to try something different this week too….instead of a single sketch, I’m going to do a runner – a series of short sketches that would be placed intermittently through a review that, hopefully, in the end add up to something more.

    So without further ado, here’s the first one….CSI: Alaska

  • CSI: Old Mill, North Carolina (SA-LOOT)

    Okay, first off I’m late. This was supposed to happen on Monday…I’m under some deadlines, but I had this stuck in my head, and in odd moments, I pounded it out.

    I want to point out…while this is exaggerated SOME – it is largely based on the experience Trish and I had when our home in Hertford, NC was robbed several years back. The names have been (mostly) changed to protect … well … someone.

  • CSI: Supposably

    It’s a linguistic nightmare… (and forgive me if I went a little overboard – being a huge CSI geek, I was like a kid in a candy store)

    INT. HALLWAY OUTSIDE COLLEGE CLASSROOM – NIGHT
    Flashlights light up the pitch-black hallway outside a college classroom. CSI HILARIO HECKERT, a middle-aged, stocky geek, and CSI HOLLY OAKS, a middle-aged cougar in stilettos, walk toward the classroom with their flashlights. CAPTAIN MIKE COPPER stands outside the barricaded classroom door.

  • CSI: Anywhere

    Just as last week’s topic was a bit of foreign territory for some of the warriors, this week’s topic is a mystery to me. The sum of my knowledge of the CSI family of shows comes from the “Endless Caruso One Liners” video. However, far be it from me to fake what I don’t know.

    With this topic, I figured the key was location, location, location. Hope you enjoy.
