SCREEN PLAY
A comedic short scene based on inside humor of TV shows: “XENA THE WARRIOR PRINCESS”, “BUFFY, THE VAMPIRE SLAYER”, “STARGATE SG1”, “THE X-FILES”, and “CALIFORNICATION”.
The idea for this piece came to me after thinking about all the ‘bad’ cult classic TV shows, all the terrible science premises, and all the gimmicky ways the production companies increase their ratings. I’ve never written a screen-play in my life, but this is something I’d love to do as a hobby. This is my first ever screen play. The piece is intended to be something of an SNL skit, except SNL for nerds, and I doubt it exists. There are a lot of inside jokes based on the shows and the characters, and God knows there are probably 3 persons on Earth, me included, who can get all of it, but the general idea, hopefully, will be apparent to everyone in the end. In my head, this is funny. Whether it is funny as a written word, remains to be seen. Let me know what you think!
