Racist Show Pitches

A trailer-style voiceover sells an unlikely new series, and then the scene cuts to the pitch meeting behind it, where a long-haired network executive tells the eager writer that the premise is built on a prejudiced assumption. The writer insists it is simply a fish-out-of-water story, and each follow-up idea he offers, including a short film-style teaser for a doctor character, rests on an equally clumsy stereotype. The executive keeps shutting the ideas down, and the writer's final pitches become so ridiculous that the meeting ends in a dismissal.
