Can you repair a sketch that didn't go well and bring it back weeks later?
Yeah, people do resubmits kind of all the time.
I would say the ratio of resubmits working is pretty low unless the idea was strong and it just got cut for time or whatever kind of reasons.
It was wrong host or something.
Sometimes different hosts fit things better, but...
Yeah, it's rare that once someone's heard something once that they have a sharper response when they hear it the second time.
So you have to switch it up in some sort of way to make it, you know, a little better.
But some people try things three and four times, you know, they just they keep chipping at it because.
They feel like there was something there in the beginning that was making them laugh so hard that they just don't want to give up on it.
And there's so many different factors of why things make the show and why they might get cut kind of stuff.
So it's hard to predict what exactly happened each time until you get to like the third time.
And it's like, all right, well, maybe this isn't really for this kind of thing.
Like maybe it's not for this show or maybe it's not for...
this kind of like East Coast minded audience or whatever kind of shit.
Yeah.
Do you remember the first sketch that you ever pitched that got picked up, got used?
No.
I wish I did, but.
Because I feel like that'd be like losing your virginity.
Yeah, I remember kind of like the first idea that I had that actually made it on to the show, which was Scared Straight.
