A taste
Lines from real one-sheets
A few favorites from the sample sheets. They change every few seconds.
In this movie, a man risks everything to save a rock. In Kevin Hart movies, a man risks everything to save The Rock.
Project Hail Mary
The severance procedure is messed up. The only time you shouldn’t remember what happened at work is the day after the office Christmas party.
Severance
The salaries for the movie’s stars leaked online. The original was based on a book. The sequel is based on a checkbook.
The Devil Wears Prada 2
The show is called The White Lotus and the creator is Mike White. I guess he felt “The Mike Lotus” was too on-the-nose.
The White Lotus
Jordan Peele’s production company lost a bidding war for Weapons. He said, “Us?” and they said, “Nope. Get Out.”
Weapons
Adam Scott’s character defends his work at Lumon as “mysterious and important,” which is the exact phrase I use to describe my cat.
Severance
I thought Gosling made a pretty convincing astronaut. Others say his performance lacks gravity.
Project Hail Mary
Season four is reportedly set in France. It’s titled, The White Lotus: Oops! All Mimes.
The White Lotus
The sequel’s romantic subplot is so undercooked it might give you salmonella.
The Devil Wears Prada 2
Director Zach Cregger had a history in sketch comedy before turning to horror films. What a pivot: from doing sketch to being sketch.
Weapons
Rocky survives a lot in this movie. He beats scissors but ultimately succumbs to paper.
Project Hail Mary
Some fans are upset it took 20 years for a sequel. At this rate, the third’ll be called “The Devil Is Buried in Prada.”
The Devil Wears Prada 2
The characters in the show are working on a way to undo severance, effectively reversing a surgical procedure. I’m way ahead of them. I put my appendix back in years ago.
Severance
The script for Weapons sold for $38 million, which is only slightly more than I paid for the ticket to see it.
Weapons
Mike White made the show as a COVID project and got a global hit. My COVID project was a sourdough starter that triggered my carbon monoxide detector.

Why humor matters
Funny keeps people watching and listening
A laugh early in an episode or video gives your audience a reason to stay, and a reason to come back next week. Your show already has the opinions and the expertise. A one-sheet adds the punchlines.
How it works
Three steps
- Choose a package and check out through PayPal.
- At checkout, tell me what your episode or video covers, or any other topic you want jokes about. Retainer clients list each month’s topics when they pay that month’s invoice.
- Get your one-sheet: within 5 days for a single sheet, within 3 days on a retainer.
FAQ
Questions
How long will it take?
Single one-sheets arrive within 5 days of your order. Retainer sheets arrive within 3 days.
What kind of jokes will it be?
Each one-sheet has 10 one- or two-liner jokes, the kind you might hear in a late-night show monologue, plus 5 introductions, transitions, or ad throws customized for your show. It works the same way for podcast episodes and YouTube videos.
Would you be willing to write jokes about topics other than TV shows and movies?
Yes, absolutely. You can include the subject you’d like jokes about when placing your order.
What about refunds?
Your first one-sheet is a risk-free trial: if you don’t use any of the jokes in your episode or video, you get your money back. After your first order, one-sheets aren’t refundable. Retainers can be canceled anytime, but payments already made aren’t refunded.
Do I need to credit you?
You will own and retain all rights to the jokes. You are not required to credit me as a writer, but if you would like to do so it is highly appreciated.
