I love this character because I'm a fanatic for boxing movies.

Adverbs of degree

Even the most boxing movies and Angel is every boxers girlfriend.

Well, you know, Tommy's fighting tonight, so I've been better.

Well, I hope he stays alive to see how kids grow up.

What, Were you going to the fight, at least?

If he fights again, I'm taking the kids to my sister's.

Because again, the specificity of your characters is you've got, like, such a laser focus.

It was really just, uh it was when that Jake Gyllenhaal Rachel McAdams movie came out southpaw and I like I heard a preview on the TV for it.

And, you know, she said something like, You know, you think you're the fighter.

I'm the fighter And I was like, Wait, I think Amy Adams said that two years ago in the fighter on then and then you just start going through all of them, and it's the same scenes every time.

And I just got excited like maybe other people noticed this, too.

So just get on that, like, right in the right.

Because when I worked on certain live long time ago, back when it was just a puppet show, Um, but it was still we would have this thing and we would have to go in and pitch ideas.

Toe Lorne and the performers on this show would have to pitch characters.

And it was hilarious because I was there when people pitched iconic characters that went on to become these huge staples of Star Net Live.

I was there and witnessed it, but it was also there when those same performers pitched characters that went nowhere.

Jon Lovitz, who, of course, was known for so many great characters.

Uh, and I was there, and he was convinced he had this character who would who would say, You got to get to know me on, then would take a drag on a cigarette and say, That's right, Get to know me and we all thought, I don't know.

He was like, Lauren, get to know me and I was like, No, no, no, no, no, no, no eyes.

They're a character that you pitched recently that just went nowhere.

Yeah, like I had pitched and wrote a woman who was a voiceover actors who voices all the hot dogs in the eighties and was like poodles Cordis and I really just thought like I was like, Everyone's going to get this like, don't remember like there were always those like hot poodles and and it hasn't been on this season.

It will be it's going to get in there and it's going to surprise.

Everybody is gonna be your character yet you'll see.

 And if that doesn't work, Lovett's old get to know me.
