FOX EXEC PRODUCER: It seems like the collective fear about Obama’s healthcare reform is dipping some – what guest could we bring on to ramp it back up?
PRODUCER 1: Is Cheney available?
PRODUCER 2: Naw, he’s busy working on his book and trying to convince the Emperor from Star Wars to run with him in 2012.
PRODUCER 1: What about Sarah Palin?
PRODUCER 2: Same as Cheney, only she’s talking to Gary Sinise and the ghost of Ron Silver.
PRODUCER 1: What if we brought in the Grim Reaper from Family Guy? Is that too over the top?
PRODUCER 2: Hmmm. What we really need is a doctor, but with a scary title like Dr. Death.
PRODUCER 1 (turns to PRODUCER 2 and EP): Are you thinking what I’m thinking?
ALL (to production assistant): Get Dr. Kevorkian on the line!
