The More You Know

January 7th, 2010

This is a sketch I’ve wanted to shoot for many years, but never had the chance.  Who knows how much longer he’ll be around, so I thought I’d archive it here before it gets totally outdated.  Enjoy.

INT. LARGE EMPTY ROOM – DAY

A SHORT BALD MAN.

SHORT BALD MAN
Remember the good old days, when NBC was Must See TV, and laughter filled the air? Remember Cheers, Seinfeld, Frasier, Friends? Well, you won’t be seeing anything like that while I’m around. I wouldn’t know comedy if it bit me in the a-hole. I’m NBC president Jeff Zucker, and I’m a bald fat-faced idiot.

FX: GRAPHIC AND TUNE FOR “THE MORE YOU KNOW”

AND WE…

FADE OUT.

You probably don’t know who he was, and I’m only familiar with a fraction of his work myself because most of it was before my time, but even with that fraction it was clear as day that this was the greatest sitcom writer to have ever lived.  If you were a fan of Cheers or Frasier, look at the Written By credit on your favorite episodes and you’ll see this name over and over again.  Brilliant.

RIP
