Re: A Man And His Probe

In Response To: A Man And His Probe (Morpheus) I thought it was clever and short. Which is great - 'brevity is the soul of wit.' Funny ideas throughout, I would have liked you to stick with one motif - that might have been more effective. I almost died when I saw the beginning - the 'Probe Show.' Very nice! Stuff like the microphone, camera angles, etc. will improve with time. The hardest thing is to come up with a quick, funny idea that people would find interesting. So far, you're on the right track. An example of what I mean with sticking with one theme, and this is just an idea in my head... would be running with the 'Best in Show' angle. Considering Sparky's tendency to 'chair' in the house, it would be humorous to watch him and then owner work harder and harder to cure of him of this behavior. Getting ready for the big show, that sort of thing - a la the Rocky movies. Then, at the big moment, the unthinkable happens (in some fashion or another). Of course, if you make this into a series it always has to end with the Spartan killing Sparky with a rocket launcher. :-D Sort of like a send up of Old Yeller, but REALLY REALLY twisted.
