Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder in Hacks (2021) There Is No Line
S1E1
An aging comedian, about to lose dates for her Vegas show, meets with a young comedy writer also in trouble due to a scathing joke she tweeted. This could be the beginning of a beautiful relationship-if they don't kill each other first.
*The episode won 2 Emmy Awards for Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series.

My homework this week: write 3 current event jokes, a monologue and short sketch for a celebrity guest assigned at random (I got Steven Yeun). The teacher is trying to emulate what writers on SNL typically do, ish.
Anyway. POV you're Steven Yeun and your Zombie co-star is way, way overthinking his role.

I’m having a really hard time wrapping my head around the existence of Bloody Marys.
Like… one day someone was eating tomato soup and thought, “yeah this is nice, but I wish it was cold and I wish it could make me drunk but I only wanna have it at 11am on weekends”? 🤨

The Titanic Talent of Jack Rose
The Titanic Talent of Jack Rose
See what I did there? We don’t often pay tribute to just any screenwriter/producers on Travalanche but we happen to be impressed with the career of Jack Rose (1911-1995) body of work, and we have also already written about his frequent creative partner Mel Shavelson. Also, what a great show biz name “Jack Rose” is in view of Harry Rose, Billy Rose, Ike Rose, Julian Rose, and Max Rose, not to…

Oh, and a funny thing about XKK (while still a working-title) is that I had to spell "Chronicles" as "Kronicles," solely because XKC sounds way too much like XKCD, and I've planned on referring to it by acronym until I'm able to dedicate some time to it.
It works though, because misspelling things for no reason and acting like that makes them more Fantasy Genre is something I do all the time in XKK; like, the MC's name itself is a real name with one lazy alteration to it to "make it original"

Also, I write. I wrote this sketch and cast two of my most amazing actor friends. We filmed it, with the help of another fantastic friend behind the camera. I edited it and wrote the music. Please enjoy.

My homework: write a monologue for a character that you personally can play / deliver.
Mine (“campaign speech”) was based on an inside joke about (male) classmates Running for President of the Small Meat Club, which rapidly got out of hand.
Anyway I have managed to enter a headspace where I regret everything and nothing at the same time.

Using vampirism as an allegory for experiencing trauma and moving forward forever changed really makes writing far more fulfilling for me. This is why I love playing in horror! ✨️
