Sketch War

  • Time Travel Wrapup

    Oy. I’m getting worse, not better! This time, four sketches have been posted before I got around to the wrapup for last week. I think I need to be a bit more proactive about these!

    Seven sketches and one not-a-sketch from Dave rounded out last week’s battle.

    Next week our brave sketch warriors will be back writing sketches for SNL Characters. (Of course when I say “next week”, I mean right now. Check them out. There’s some good opening salvos.)

    And remember, 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.

  • The Adventures of Professor Grebitus

    INT. INVENTOR’S LAB – DAY

    PROFESSOR GREBITUS and his assistant, MERL, stand among the various whirling contraptions and bubbling beakers. Professor Grebitus holds in his hands a small, golden device that looks a lot like a pocket watch.

    PROFESSOR GREBITUS
    Behold, Merl, my greatest invention! I hold in my hand, the power to control time itself. And thanks to my genius, it’s so simple a child could operate it. (more…)

  • Barring Some Newfound Ability to Manipulate Time…

    …I predict that there will be no sketch from me today. I’ll try to catch up later, because I love the topic.

    However, I’ll link to a story I wrote a few years ago that touches on the theme.

    “Pulling the Trigger.”

    Enjoy.

  • Clusterfuck: An Existential Time Travel Crisis

    Another fun one from E.L. Raica. I think it’s about time to get that lady her own account! This one had me laughing from the word go. Well, technically it had me laughing from the word “Kyle”. You’ll see what I mean. Enjoy, and be sure to let E.L. know what you think.

  • The Day Before Yesterday!!!

    I want you to picture the worst possible special effects on this one. I mean, the kind of thing that would have embarrassed the I Dream of Jeannie crew. The kind of stuff that Irwin Allen would have been ashamed to show his mother. Visible guidewires, cheap green screens, the works.

    And now…

    This may have sounded funnier in my head than it turned out…I had a hard time coming up with a time travel sketch…and now I’m way behind, so…here is what I have. I will let you be the judges.
