1) Years ago when I wrote for David Letterman we would make these fake broadway shows and put them on at the end of the show and never tell the audience they were fake. No one ever knew.
2) Afterward the crowd filed out as if they didn’t happen. It was so anticlimactic and I wondered why I wanted to do them. Dave loved them though. Did em with @CarterBays @HimymCraig and @TheTweetOfGod himself David Javerbaum.
3) Eventually we created a boy band no one knew was fake. They appeared on TRL and received 10s of 1000s of emails from fans. It was @Matt_Morrison’s first acting job!
(4) I realize now that we spent all that time and money so that I could tell you about it on Twitter fifteen years later. What a strange comedy bit but we loved it.
(this memory brought to you by #spiderverse in theaters now, it’s a real movie I swear)
And @JillLeiderman! Who went from producing pointless thankless conceptual comedy to running @jimmykimmel Live.
PS) Fresh Step odds and ends from @coryshafer. Hey @thedonz5 maybe you have their full second appearance? That was my favorite
