One of them we did was the Iraqi version of "My Name is Earl", which was "My Name is Echhh". Just like the regular show, Echhh was going around making things right that he had done wrong. Our bit was him apologizing for raping a guy or something, and he was supposed to be holding a list of all the bad deeds he had done.
So I guess we had to pitch stuff that would be on the list (which most likely wouldn't even be seen by the audience anyway). Here are some of my pitches for what an Iraqi guy would have on his bad deeds list:
Videotaped Saddam execution with cell phone
Secretly don’t know the difference between Shiite and SunniDeleted “
Ripped off this idea from American TV show
Sympathized with the predators from Dateline: To Catch a Predator
Still drive gas guzzling SUV
Cried on 9/11
Masturbated to that chick who turned out to be a dude
Married 4 women instead of the customary 3
Did a few jobs for Haliburton
Bought Kevin Federline’s album
I was the one who stabbed Steve Irwin, it wasn’t that stingray
Think Jews are “not that bad”
Once tormented a classmate with a series of “your mama’s so Shia jokes”
And they pay me for this shit.

How can I get your job? Or at least something similar?
You know, so I can get paid for the lists I write all day anyway.
