My writers, producers and I came up with a lot of pretty funny bits on Unscrewed with Martin Sargent, but personally, my all time favorite franchise was Dear Blog. In this recurring bit, I would perform dramatic readings of real blog posts we found online, acting as if I were typing the blog myself, and set them to overly dramatic, lilting piano music and, initially, dissolve in and out of camera shots of me at my desk in candle light, surrounded by roses, stuffed animals, and other ridiculous items. I always wore a silk scarf.
Later, we took Dear Blog into the field, and shot the pieces on the beach, in parks, and other spots where one might engage in some deep soul searching.
Well, I’m pleased to say that someone named Tim Lopez has posted a whole mess of these classic segments on YouTube. If you fondly remember Dear Blog, or want to experience it for the first time, all the links are below. Thanks, Tim, for bringing back some very warm memories.
