Okay, so Googly Eyes Gardener. This is something my grandma Kenward used to really do. googly eyes on her cactuses, which is maybe something that Midwestern ladies of a certain age do or did. And I remember writing this down in my Word document of sketch ideas at one point, just as like an observation, you know, like, why do people put googly eyes on cactuses in particular?

And I thought, you know, I guess it's because they're dangerous and they can hurt you. And so people want to humanize them and make them cute or more relatable. And I kind of just, you know, extrapolated that idea from there. I don't think I ever really thought about how I was going to write that into a sketch.

And I think that's an observation that maybe sat in that document for a couple of years or a year. I also remember I wanted to write something that had reaction shots of nonreactive things. You know, like the Monty Python sketch, Confuse a Cat, where you would cut to a cat for a reaction shot, but they clearly had no idea what was going on. The Google ads kind of give you that.

I remember writing this very late or very early in the morning on Wednesday. before I went home, before read-through. It was kind of what we used to call a fuck-around piece. I don't know if you can curse on the show, but that's what we called them, what we did call them. Obviously, Walken is great at doing sketches by himself and can really, you know, elevate the craziest, wispiest ideas.

And I think that must have been somewhere in the back of my mind, because in hindsight, it's very weird to write... a sketch for just one person. Also, in hindsight, in the context of this show, it kind of gives you the same value as the Continental sketches that Chris Walken used to do, and there's not one of those in this show.
