[edit] MONDAY NIGHT LIVE
Monday Night Live is a 15-30 minute sketch-comedy/variety show created by kids in suberban Los Angeles, California. The show is not aired on television, but can hopefuly be watched Monday nights on youtube as soon as late 2007. The show consists of a variety of short comedy sketches.
[edit] Name
The name of the show, an obvious parody of the popular sketch-comedy show Saturday Night Live, might be changed to "Monday Night Prime-Time". The new name will be introduced in season two.
[edit] FORMAT
The format, similar to nickelodeon's All That, is a variety of short comedy sketches performed by teens. The show starts out with some kind of rediculous sketch. (Monaday Night Live crew members like to call this their "opening sketch") then, when the audience least expects it, the actor(s) look at the camera and yell "Live from So-Cal,It's Monday Night!" After the "opening sketch" the opening credits role. The opening credits show random clips of each cast member, labeling their name with the clips. Originaly, the theme song for the first season was "I Love LA" written and performed by Randy Newman, but was later changed to "Hungry Like the Wolf". After the credits role, the show goes on with its normal sketch-comedy routine, and ends later on with a closing normaly done by creater/director Philip Maingot & co-executive producer Robert Kasper.

Him and his brother Philip began filming random stuff on the family's ancient 1990's camera a good half-year before MNL was created.
