A young writer is hired to script the worst show in the history of television - Ghost Lawyer.
View ProjectWant to know what makes Ghost Lawyer different? Want to know what it's like inside the mind of a writer? What about inside the mind of Jay, the poor bastard given the task of writing Ghost Lawyer? Prepare yourselves for the answers, as you enter... Jay's nightmare! *Team Ghost Lawyer is not responsible for any subsequent bad dreams directly related to viewing this video.
Fave 39 Views 441First off, in my honest opinion this show has the best title in all of comedy coup. If I saw "Ghost Lawyer" on a channel guide I would have to stop and watch it. That being said am I the only one who thinks a show actually about a ghost lawyer would be better than a show about a guy writing a show about a ghost lawyer? I'm hoping the show would have a lot of clips of the "ghost lawyer" show he's writing appear in it so we get a taste of what it's like.

Congratulations on making it to the Top 55! You guys are doing a great job. I really believe in you guys and want to see this thru to the end. Best wishes for making it to the next level.
I think the idea is great, there are lots of paranormal type shows out there though. You do have an interesting spin on it with the lawyer add. I enjoyed this week's video, best of luck!
This definitely managed to capture the focus of the show, and showed how original the concept is. I can't wait to see more about the Ghost Lawyer and his clients.
This show has the bestitle, hands down. Also the best precis you can use to explain the show to your friends, i.e, "Well it's about a lawyer... for GHOSTS". I realyl hope the development team took the day off after they thought of that one.
Really like the concept here; far out and funny. The acting is great and the writing is very funny. You guys have something here. Looking forward to more. Good luck!
Love the concept.Very interesting love the attire.Love to see more keep up good work.Good luck in top 15..Watch out ghost.Cheers.
This show has great comedy potential; I really like the new spin you are putting on established TV tropes and am looking forward to what more you can come up with!
hahaha! that was funny, i really like it , good concept , i like the cheap costume too. the acting was good, continue in that way i think it shows your style and your originality , good luck for the rest of the comedy coup
You have produced a fair attempt to explain how your show is different from the others in this competition. It's not clear though, what the show is actually going to be about which might have helped with the week 3 mission. But you have done a reasonably funny job here.
I got a few chuckles out of the antics of the ghost in the video, that's for sure! I bet most ghosts only carry twenties...
It was a little strange that this video was about the writer and not a lot about the show. It didn’t really get me hooked to watch the show in anyway. I’m sorry but this video could have had a bit more of the plot of the show in it to explain what this would be about and why it’s different.
I was hoping that the show was actually about Ghost Lawyer and not the writer. Ghost Lawyer is not the worst idea for a show and could be really funny. I hope the writer gig gets dropped and it's just a Lawyer who talks to ghosts!
Congratulations on finishing the video for this week and good luck in all your missions in the future.
There's nothing like a ghost lawyer to freak out a crowd. Take this one to the limit crew, don't give up.
Well, I was starting to really enjoy all your videos until I saw the end of this one; I am so sorry you put that idea in the end... What for? I have lost my interest in this project, if you want my honesty. Sorry about that!
Those were my thoughts exactly. it started off funny and then turned offensive.
Do the Ghost! Sounds like a dance sequence for Halloween (or perhaps closing credits lol). I agree with dude who commented that the title Ghost Lawyer would be enough for me to pick it from the TV guide - it's exactly why I picked to watch it here!
Congratulations on making it to the Top 110 and I good lucking on making it to the Top 15!! I liked it a lot! Cheerios!
Very interesting concept! However I'm wondering what the plot will follow as. Will it be the lawyer simply being followed by a ghost or later will it be follow the ghost view of the story? I'm very curious. Overall, despite it being just a little bit silly and immature, it shows good potential! Love the ghost! busters vibe as well!
I like the concept of the film. Its everyones worst nightmare to have to direct and out on a show that is so terrible! I thought it was funny and the ending had me laughing for quite awhile. Overall, good film and I actually enjoyed the sheet over the head because it was so ordinarily funny.
Good stuff!
HAHAH!!! Absolutely hilarious, love how this team is hitting the requirements of the challenge in a creative way and still pulling the audience into a narrative. Well done, you LOLs all around.
LOL is right, the ending had me in stitches, good stuff, funny
LOL!
I love Dan Stolfi! I cant wait to see more
Some potential here. I love a good show within a show concept. Best of luck with it, and I look forward to seeing what else you guys do with the idea.
A comical force to be reckoned with!! Mind blasting stuff.
I'd watch anything with Dan Stolfi
I like the concept! Personally, the sheet-over-the-head look I think could go...but hey, maybe it works for some!
Budgetary restrictions have our make up and costume department resorting to any means necessary! LOL.
Best show ever!
Hahahahaha The end bit waking up from the nightmare, it is indeed a completely original concept, it would be good to see this show take off a bit more. Seems a little thrown together, but I suppose that's the point with the failed writer aspect.
hmm "GILF" gonna become a thing? hahaha
There's always room for people taking shots at the lawyering profession - I guess this would cover the writing game, as well. I would echo Kane's comments, and would love to see how the "show within the show" plays.
This is dark - love it.
Hilarious! I'd watch it for sure!
Haha I was missing that classic sheet ghost in week #2. I think there was a sheet, but that video just didn't feel like it matched what had attracted me to the show in week one. This made me laugh out loud again. More sheet ghosts! More dorky songs!
I have to agree with Kane below... I'd like to see the show Ghost Lawyer! That would probably be really funny. Great acting so far guys. best of luck with your series.
HA, lawyer for ghosts
Again, great work guys. The darker side is a nice contrast to the first week's video. That said I really like them both. They're intriguing and have a way of making me literally ROTFL. But seriously, awesome stuff!
Very funny. I hope it gets spooky as well. Lots of potential to do some creepy work here.
First off, in my honest opinion this show has the best title in all of comedy coup. If I saw "Ghost Lawyer" on a channel guide I would have to stop and watch it. That being said am I the only one who thinks a show actually about a ghost lawyer would be better than a show about a guy writing a show about a ghost lawyer? I'm hoping the show would have a lot of clips of the "ghost lawyer" show he's writing appear in it so we get a taste of what it's like.
Glad to see one of the creators weighing in to agree with this - Kane's bang on. I'm also wondering what an average episode will be like. Do we see all of the cast and crew involved in "Ghost Lawyer", and do they all hate it too, or is the main character the odd man out? Or is it more about his private life, and if so will we see how what's happening in his life makes its way onto the show in bizarre, Ghost-Lawyerish ways?
Lots of potential - great job so far!
Hey Kane! This is the perfect comment :) We are one hundred percent going to show lot's of clips of the actual show Ghost Lawyer, that our writer has to write. We've been getting lot's of feedback about the concept and which avenue to go down. Really appreciate the feedback, it all helps a lot!
That ending was hilarious! sounds interesting… would like to see more. Cant wait to see what you all do in the future. Good luck to everyone involved. YAY.
Was William Shakespeare right? "The first thing we do, we kill all the lawyers!!" I must say I am generally not a big fan of the legal profession...But this concept appears to have some merit. I look forward to seeing it flesh out as the Comedy Coup process continues through December!!!!
when there's something strange in the neighbourhood who you gonna call? GHOST LAWYER!!!! lololololol very good.
Am I the only person who thinks this should be about a lawyer who is a ghost? Like he somehow takes cases from beyond the grave and uses otherworld powers to cross examine and stuff?
everybody loves ghosts, and everybody loves lawyers. i think that lawyers banging ghosts is next level. i'd like to see where this thing goes
That's a really funny idea you got there, depending on how it's executed this could be a tv show. It might get a little repetitive eventually but before that is hilarious
I feel like this show could go to some pretty hilarious places.... dark... but hilarious :D
I'm enjoying the development of your work. I think the strength of your first two videos was the performances by Jennifer De Lucia so I was a little surprised to not 'see' her in your new video. That said, the ghost dancing around, etc. made me laugh aloud and I'm pretty sure that was her under there. Good luck!
well kirk, hopefully the writers read this. I appreciate the love!
You have a fantastic eye for talent Kirk ;)
this show is a bit weird but im still not in a good way or a bad way. i was a little lost while watching it but then it all came together in the end. maybe because its halloween it ties in well but outside of the holiday i dunno if i find it appealing
Though I really value fresh ideas ..and this is definitely that, I can't really say that I found this very amusing. I really, really want to like it though! Maybe it's the production quality that put me off.
We be working on no budget Katie B! But we'll get there! Thanks for the feedback :)
Charles M. Schultz is rolling over in . . .
but might be giggling
Love you guys! There are so many sheet opportunities for ghosts, it could be a spin off!! Give'er!!
The concept is great, totally got what you were going for in this video. I love the difference in acting/lighting/overall quality between Jay's world and the crappy Ghost Lawyer world of terrible TV. Do we get to find out WHY this crap show is being pushed through? What happened to Jay for him to have fallen so far? Does Ghost Lawyer have any fans, and if so, do they write fanfiction?
Really appreciate this feedback!
This show just makes the most sense because OBVIOUSLY Ghosts turn into skeletons when you have sex with them. A++
I really would have liked to see more of your show and humour in this video. I understand that you had to explain why you are unique in this video, but seeing into the lawyers' mind didn't really explain that to me. Good luck with the competition!
Hey Christina, thanks for commenting. That wasn't the ghost lawyer's mind, that was Jay's, the poor guy who has to write this horrible TV show 'Ghost Lawyer' and the deleterious effect that it is having on his mind. Check out the first video if you're interested in some of the setup, but again, thanks for commenting!
Ghost sex is definitely a comedic resource that needs to be mined and you guys are on the right track. Perhaps mentioning how this paranormal comedy will enter into new realms of the paranormal will help clarify what makes you different. excited to see what comes of it all!
Holly crap. I thought this was funny! Good job guys! - Shirts
Ha! Hilarious!
Nice work Dan & Co!
I liked everything but the last bit. It just didn't even make sense to me. Looking forward to more from you guys!
I love the title and the premise is ridiculous enough to work but there is no indication of what would really happen on the show or what the situations there might be.
defending vapour is one thing, but having sex with vapour.
it must be masturbation......where are you guys going? goodluck
Pretty cool, keep it up!
I think this is a great concept and you could go a few different ways with it. Looking forward to see where it goes. Hope it will get darker and, dare I say, creepier.
What can I say? It feels like I've fallen in love with Ghost Lawyer all over again.
You actually had me laughing until the last bit... Suddenly it turned a little dark / seedy for me. There's something so silly about the concept, I enjoy when you own the campiness and indulge in self deprecation. But maybe it was the music and the ghost humping? Not my thing.
Thanks for the feedback Krista! We were actually back and fourth on the ghost hump. It's one of those love hate relationships that a lot of people have with comedy. To hump a ghost? Not to hump a ghost? We out voted our third partner 2 - 1... She may have had a point! LOL But we stick by our sick twisted minds ;)
I'm sorry, the whole video was of a guy asking what would make this project funny and I didn't really get an answer. It's over and I'm still asking... Original? Maybe. But funny? I'm afraid I'm unconvinced.
I did read the description, I just felt the concept got a little muddled in the video. But hey, I'm just one person, and simply because I'm not convinced yet, doesn't mean I can't be.
All good Lauren. Hopefully it was clear that the writer "Jay" is grappling with the idea that he now has to write this really bad show called "Ghost Lawyer"... I think you may have missed the description on this one. But that's cool.
Really interesting concept. As always you guys are super funny. This is a very unique idea and am looking forward to see where you guys are going with it!
Top marks for special effects!
I can't even re-post the video since that ghost is just so creeepy ;)
Any chance we could get a few more ghosts on screen at a time? Lets see some ghost ghost lawyer love triangles or something. Maybe a afterlife by-law dispute about a fence?
That's a really funny idea you got there, depending on how it's executed this could be a tv show. It might get a little repetitive eventually but before that is hilarious
Loving the dark humour. Keep up the good work!
