    This stuff makes me smile.

    How are these written? do you write them alone? or work together with whatever comic is in the episode at the time?

    I write the story lines (if you could call them that, they're so short) but the dialogue is improv'd. Like, I'll tell the other comic "Here's what's happening in this episode" and then I lead them with questions, and we'll just go back and forth, then we'll repeat the stuff that was particularly funny.

    It's a lot more fun that way, and it seems to be working so far, since most comics can improvise. Also, most of the comics doing these are doing them as a favor to me, so to ask them to memorize a script would be a bit much, in my opinion.

    I write the monologues and the freeze frame stuff alone.

    Re: "The Opener" - New Episode up Featuring Dom Irrera

    Dom saying "Yeah, footage. Black and white games." made me lose it for some reason.

    I really love these.

    Re: "The Opener" - New Episode posted

    Ted is one of my favorite comics. I think the AST folks would dig his stuff, if you haven't seen him already. This episode and the Bamford episode are playing on the in-house TV's at Comix in NY.
