We had this idea for a gag, Hypno Idol, based on the New Zealand Idol, American Idol TV shows, with judges and singers etc. We’ve done it a few times now, and it has been really great, very funny and well received by the audience.
I must say I was quite proud of the concept. Recently I mentioned it to Jaydee while we were swapping ideas for gags. He replied that lots of hypnotists in North America do a very similar gag, and so he was avoiding it in order to remain original.
Darn it! I thought that I had come up with an original idea that no-one else had thought of yet. But my great idea has been used widely elsewhere. We have other great ideas too, but now I’m feeling a bit deflated about Hypno Idol. It is still a great gag though, even if I didn't think of it first.
I came across this guy on YouTube. He's very funny and the song is quite relevant.
