Community dream
Apr. 12th, 2012 02:28 pmI had a dream last night that I was convinced, while I was having it, that it would make a fantastic Community spec script. I thought it was totally brilliant. I even had a follow-up dream where I pitched it to Dan Harmon and he thought it was great and told me to write it.
Unfortunately, after I woke up, I couldn't recall most of the funny bits, just the basic premise and some of the key dramatic moments. Sadly, those key dramatic moments hinged on the presence of Community characters that only existed in my dream -- me, Captain America, and
franzeska . Although there was one funny exchange with Dean Pelton and Abed that I can still remember and like a lot.
The dream episode centered around a Greendale soccer and/or ice hockey game (it didn't switch back and forth in the dream -- rather, I had the dream once and went back and made a revision and had it again. It played very differently -- when I was forward playing soccer, we lost, but when I wasn't playing ice hockey and Captain America was forward (or whatever) we won, but disaster struck. Jeff Winger was goalie in both versions. Half the episode took place in the bleacher with various interpersonal subplots that I can't actually recall (just that at one point I realized that I'd totally neglected to put Pierce in and Andre was jealous because he thought Shirley was flirting with another man, but really she was just being friendly with a preacher because she was thinking of switching to his church).
Also I have no Community icons. This is sad.
