Time Talk! Vol. 4
“So I’m here today to discuss my idea for a new television show.”
“We’re listening.”
“How can I describe this show? Hmmm well let me just say this: This will be the show that your great great grandchildren will be talking about every morning around the water cooler.”
“Sounds -“
“Although by then it will be way in the future so they’ll probably be able to hydrate themselves with little pills or just by thinking about it or maybe the Earth’s water will run out in the next fifty years anyway and the human race will die out but what I’m trying to say is when space aliens come to mine our resources THIS will be the tv show they’ll watch on their down-time.”
“Just get to the point please.”
“Ok so picture this: A group of happy go-lucky teenage cheerleaders who solve mysteries and happen to be alcoholics…”
“I’m not sure I -“
“It’s called ‘Cheers’.”
“Please leave.”
“Ok forget that, that was a piece of shit, I know. Hear me out on this one: A billionaire playboy hits a whale with his diamond encrusted speedboat, injuring it badly and as punishment the judge forces the man to live with the whale and do all its chores for one year.”
“Go on.”
“It’s called ‘Whale Whaddya Know!’ I’m thinking Daniel Day-Lewis as the playboy and Martin Lawrence in a fat suit as the whale - BOOM!”
“WOW! That sounds amazing! I mean, I don’t think we were going to go for it at first but when you added that BOOM’ thing on the end and did that little twirl it really sealed the deal, welcome aboard!”
End Scene.
