READ MY "EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND " SPEC SCRIPT

Project: Monkeytown USA (segment from "Harsh Reality" pilot)

Client: F/X Networks
Date: January 2001
Desctiption: To this day, it's (in my mind) the funniest show that's never aired. Essentially it's a phony Dateline NBC, comprised of real bloopers and news footage... and complete with actors playing the interview subjects. The half-hour pilot was hosted by Jerry Lambert... quite possibly the most brilliant comedic actor of all-time. In this installment, a renegade zookeeper has opened a park to, "Let Man and Monkey come together."

Desctiption: A segment from "The Pat KIlbane" show. This piece parody's those "Art History Minute" biographies, by focusing on a white man from the 1920's who may (or may not) have invented break dancing. This was definitley one of the "homerun" sketches from the pilot.
