Bruce's Easy Rent Commercials

The hard thing about doing this was getting a product / service plug, story, and laugh into a 24 second time frame. Most of these had original versions that proved too long to work, sometimes only by 2 seconds, but still too long. The ones below were the final edits that we filmed, with the exception of the first.

Parents who neglect their children - Happy Journey Spoof version. This was written as a spoof on Happy Journey, the first play that was performed in the San Juan College Fine Arts Center. It would have been really funny, as it used the HJ characters, however, funny only to those who say the play. A great in-joke. Not useable with the general public however.

Intimacy with easy chairs

I was abducted by my love seat

Nymphomaniacs - is it the man, or the bed Tom Street played both Bruce and the Host in this one. My best pal Carrie was the nympho. Just too cool.

Parents who neglect their children This was the rewrite version that did end up getting taped.

Satanist who prefer $5 delivery Bruce really liked this one, as did everyone else. However, it was decided that this was a bit too much for the Morman community, of which Bruce is a member. So it was not taped. Breaks my heart.... This one would have been great. As Alf says, "I kill me!"

Stereos from Hell, my sound system is possessed by a demon

There were 6 more commercials, written by Jeremy - who also played "the popcorn guy". He was a guy selling popcorn in the audience, just like at the ball game.
