I just spoofed this this week using Robin Williams and Wilford Brimley competing with Williams ahead because of his movie, Mrs Doubtfire.
I saw it as a funny rumor on the net and now it may be true. Or it may still be a rumor, who knows? If it IS true, I guess Brimley will play the boyfriend back home in Scotland. At least that's what I wrote. Shows you can't outspoof Hollywood's own creation. Maybe he can do "The Bea Arthur Story" next. -Bureau "A government big enough to give you everything you want is strong enough to take everything you have." |

Bureau,
That avatar you're using. Is that Rod Serling from the 'Twilight Zone'? Years since I saw that, just wondered... Regards Skoob. |

Yeah, I saw it listed on the Spoof site and I used it to comment that the stories sent to the magazine section seem to go into the Twilight Zone.
I liked those old BW stories too. My favorite was "How To Serve Man" where the supposedly benevolent alien's book is finally translated and they discover it's a cook book. -Bureau "A government big enough to give you everything you want is strong enough to take everything you have." |

Cheers for that mate.
The stand-out episode for me was the one where Burgess Meredith played a compulsive reader with terrible eyesight, who was delighted that the world's population was apparently dead, so he could read to his heart's content. But then he breaks his glasses... Regards Skoob. |

i like the episode with the sociopathic little boy that turns people into horrible things by wishing bad things on them. his surviving captives always begged him to wish his creations "into the cornfield". it was grotesquely cartoonish. he was portrayed by billy mummy, the boy from lost in space.

I don't want to seem dense, but just to reaffirm: When you post something like this, it's open game for a spoof, right? |

Go for it, though I think I've already seen two stories by other writers on the topic.
