I can help you shape your sitcom, I can help you think about what could make your sketch show better, but it won't help you get you a commission.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You simply cannot do a sitcom by committee. It will not work. You've got to have one or two clean, creative voices in charge, and there's got to be some faith by the studio and network in those people to make the right choices.
I don't want to get pretentious, but there's an art to doing sitcoms; you have to make it work in that format.
I'm ridiculously fortunate to get a chance to experience the sitcom world. The schedule is extremely easy, and you get fed as an artist because you're not only working on a project, but you get to work with cameras, and you get the audience there.
I think people have a hard time thinking that I could've done a sitcom.
With sitcom writing, you're trying to write stories.
Without realizing it, I think I've wanted to do a sketch show since I was, like, 11 years old. Like everybody else in comedy, I grew up watching 'Saturday Night Live,' and I was doing characters with my friends.
I get less and less sketching done at shows, as more and more people want to come up and talk or get stuff signed. Most requested character? Probably Catwoman.
I'll get to make a lot of money and do some bad sitcoms.
The best sketch shows are from a group of tight-knit people who've worked together for a really long time.
What's great about working on a sitcom is that I spend so much time with people who are in other fields as well, such as writing, directing, and/or camera operating. Being on set is like being on a playground. I go from one thing to the next, and I've learned so much and hope to continue learning.
