BV Bar and Grille

Where everybody knows your dummy's name.

***

1. June 6, 2010 - Series Pilot with Guests Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy

***

To my new ventriloquist friends:

Here's the pitch I am making to any ventriloquist who might see this:

Pick a few lines of your ventriloquist routine (say, one or two rimshots) that can work as dialog with a monkey bartender or a dummy waiter or a human owner/chef, send them to me along with your web address, pictures, and other promo materials. Allow me to weave a script (trust me - I will treat your material like it's gold!) just as I did with Charlie McCarthy and Edgar Bergen, making you "this week's special guest at the Budding Ventriloquist Bar and Grille."

You get a little promotion out of it, and I get to have fun writing it. I hope this sounds like great fun all around.

My email is: bushmandaniel@gmail.com.

Think Cheers, or the Jackie Gleason "Joe the Bartender" skits, or Dean Martin having a drink with the guests on his show - except the guest are ventriloquists and their dummies and puppets.

Come join this adventure
