SNL Episode Template

Introduction:

A sketch without intro to make people unsure what they are watching.  At least idiots who think maybe there’s a presidential debate on a non-election year on late-night Saturday TV.

Monologue:

Guest host does opening bit.  There are two options:

1.  Have a great guest host who can pull of anything.

2.  Have a horrendous guest host such as Michael Phelps or Megan Fox, both of whom reject the idea of just walking on stage shirtless.  However, it is vital to have non-funny guest hosts on a comedy show, sort of like centering a breakfast around pickles.

Sketch #1:

Really good premise, pretty decent, 3 minutes too long.

Sketch #2:

Decent premise, solid acting, 8 minutes too long.

Sketch #3:

Horrifically grating character.  17 minutes too long, immediately optioned for a full-length feature film.

Black Eyed Peas play a song for no fucking reason.

Sketch #4:

Fake commercial that would be outrageous except for the fact that I just saw two commercials for boner pills and one for a service where you apparently use a corded house phone to call a sexy woman who is half-naked and really excited to talk to you.

Closing:

Everyone stands on the stage, the host says goodbye, thanks the Black Eyed Peas (again, for no fucking reason) and we’re out.

Job well done.
