Writing for Late Night TV and Talk Shows 2 (Online)

Building on Online Writing for Late Night TV and Talk Shows 1, this class will consist of joke maximizers for monologue jokes, finding the angle for your joke, monologue jokes with visual punch lines, bits or mini sketches within a monologue, rants on a topic like John Oliver/Seth Meyers, coming up with extra segments for celebrity guests, recurring segment ideas, Fallon-type games with guests, and Sweeps weeks/big ideas for the shows like Kimmel’s “Wall of America”. Students work together more in this level, and explore and heighten each others ideas in this collaborative writer’s room environment!

Please note that this class will take place entirely online. You will be emailed a unique link for video conferencing the day of your class.
