Carl and Mundy
So, while I was in the shower, I thought of a great idea for a sitcom. Here's the mini-pilot:
[int. living room] Mundy is sitting, cigar in mouth, watching television. Through the door behind him enters Carl.
CARL : Hey, Mundy!
MUNDY : Hey, Carl. How did your date go last night?
CARL : She was pretty, but she had no personality. (laugh track) Hey, what are you watching?
MUNDY : Vertigo, and Strangers On A Train is next.
CARL : Dammit, Mundy! Do you have to do a Hitchcock marathon every Saturday? There's good TV on!
MUNDY : Do not think that I am doing this for pleasure. These are psychological thrillers. I'm researching.
CARL : My ass.
(CARL walks out of room, then slowly walks back in, arms akimbo. CARL clears his throat.)
(laugh track)
(CARL clears his throat again.)
MUNDY : You should go to health services. I don't want you getting me sick.
CARL : Oh, I'm not sick. (pause) Mundy, have you seen our bathroom lately?
MUNDY : Yes, why?
CARL : It's disgusting, and I'm not the one who made it like that.
MUNDY : (rubs his forehead facetiously) Oh, oh no. I don't remember doing anything like that. It must have been my id.
CARL : (walks slowly behind where Mundy sits on the couch, punching his hand for effect) If you and your id don't get in there and clean it up, I'll give you a bruised ego.
MUNDY : 'nuff said. (stands up and rushes to the bathroom)
(CARL hops over the back of the couch, takes Mundy's seat, and changes the channel on the TV)
MUNDY : (reentering room in a rush) You mother-fucker.
CARL : You would know.
CUT to opening theme, "You Make Me Feel So Young". The name of the show is called "Don't Mind Me".
Now, brownie points to the first person who can tell me who both of the above characters are supposed to be.
