Sacha - This Episode

(Coming up on tonight's episode of Atypical Dialogues:
Our troubadour friend finds himself contemplating his doom
Upon noticing patterns of mental illness in his family)
(Stay tuned for the next episode of Atypical Dialogues!
Viewer discretion is advised)
In this episode I reflect; I grow introspective
Are these writers trying to cut me off?
The black dog trope
So overused
But Chekhov approves
If it runs in the family, it's running after me
We're only on the air 'cause we're hanging from this cliff face
We're too comfortable there to create suspense
(What a calamity!)
I'm seeing the trends, they're hogging the gags, I feel like an extra
Write me a spin-off show, cast them a Christmas cameo
Maybe we've jumped the shark, maybe we've already plateaued
These characters never stick around
The writing staff
A bunch of hacks
I used to love this show
The CEO or someone apropos has got to go
(Haha! The episode is all yours, pal)
I'm going on strike
Work out the issues in your individual life
Before handing them down to another generation
You can free your line
I'm going on strike
Work out the issues in your own life
(Well... they were promised a show)
Before handing them down to another generation
Let's force the network into syndication
Don't let them be next
(Haha! That was stiffer than the Scotch on my upper lip)
Don't let us be next
Come to terms with what your family is
Make efforts not to echo any traits which may be cruel
Trace the trauma, separate it from you — free your line
Free your line
Free your line
I ask: 'Depersonalisation — is that the same as ego death?'
They say: 'Won't you please just stick to your lines?'
This family tree
Its roots run deep
But heart rot in me
Is art wrought in me
I've made my peace
(Talk about atypical dialogues — Isn't that the fourth wall you've broken today?
We ought to get a better set designer)
I'm going on strike
Work out the issues in your individual life
Before handing them down to another generation
You can free your line
I'm going on strike
Work out the issues in your individual life
Before handing them down to another generation
Will you free your line?
(Thank you for watching Atypical Dialogues.
Our show has regrettably and resentfully been canned and cancelled. Good bye.)
