the drew carey show

It's HALLOWEEN so we start off a little...CREPEY!! We also discuss 90s sitcom The Drew Carey Show and ask What was your FAVOURITE SITCOM or feel good sitcom? We show you BG's JELLYFISH COSTUME and a glimpse of the super exclusive party we attended. halloween party, BG gets emotional and JT gets sing-songy while we learn about BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY & why it came out on Halloween. Do you think cars like the music played within them? Do you say HAL o ween or HAUL o ween? Do you think the needle or the spear was more crucial to HUMAN EVOLUTION? How big is a Mastodon's butthole? Would you rather run into an alien or bigfoot? We ask a ton of questions and have a lot of fun with this one. Fair Warning...JT has a mini tirade at the end about duality of news stories.

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!

This week we talk about one of Scotland's most charming and likable exports ever to grace American late night tvs. He's tall, funny and more than a little bit cheesy.

Peter Tolan (Rescue Me, Outsiders, The Jim Gaffigan Show, Analyze This) talks TV pilots and his creative journey.

We talk about:

• creating character conflicts
• balancing comedy and drama
• The central idea, the nugget, the central question of what a show is and writing to it
• Building character conflicts, plot in a TV pilot
• Mapping out the season/seasons of a series
• Episode balance of comedy and drama on Rescue me
• Writers room
• Using cards
• Cards wall
• Story checkpoints
• Sequences
• George Clooney
• Sony Television
• Pitching
• Rewriting
• Writing the rough draft
• Writing just comedy/jokes vs. story/plot – what happens next?
• The Larry Sanders Show
• UMass theatre days
• New York theatre exploits
• Murphy Brown
• Gaffigan
• Playwriting to TV writing
• Breaking into the business today – Youtube, shooting something

Quotes from the show:

"You slowly put everything in place so you can get to that last moment. We knew what the last image of the first season of Rescue Me was so we could always write to it. We slowly could make our way towards that."

"Rescue Me was dealing with death all the time. As dark as it went with drama, it had to go just as light with the comedy. You had to balance the two out."

“If you're young and starting out,  you can shoot on your phone. Write something and make it. Put it on YouTube  and people will see it.”

“You write somebody who's a dick - who has outrageous behavior, but then how do you have an audience empathize with that character, care about that character? So an essential character is not the dick, it's the other guy."
