                       OFFICER
So, what exactly happened here
sir?
                                                            
                       JUSTIN
      (scared)
Well, I was about to enjoy my
cereal after a bad dream. Then the
phone rang. So I went to answer it
and when I came back it was

                       OFFICER
Who was murdered?
                                                            
                       JUSTIN
Over there. You'll see it. It's
horrible.
                                                            
                       OFFICER
      (confused)
Your cereal sir?
                                                            
OFFICER WALKS OVER AND LOOKS AROUND AT THE CEREAL
                                                            
                       OFFICER
Well sir, I now know what happened
to your cereal.
                                                            
                       JUSTIN
What?
                                                            
                       OFFICER
It was murdered by a cereal
killer.
                                                            
                       JUSTIN
      (yelling)
NNNOOOO!
                                                            
                       OFFICER
It looks as if it were done by the
infamous cereal killer Duncan
Donuts.
                                                            
                       JUSTIN
How do you know it was him just by
looking at it?
                                                            

3.

                       OFFICER
He left a note here with his name
on it. Plus, he's the only cereal
killer on the planet.
                                                            
                       JUSTIN
I hope one day you find him and
bring him to justice.
                                                            
 
INT. POLICE STATION E.C. ROOM - DAY
                                                            
                       NARRATOR
It's been two weeks since the
killing at Justin's house and the
killer has been caught by a boy
named Max when he tried to kill
his cereal. Now he awaits death at
the electric chair.
                                                            
ANGLE ON POLICE CHIEF AND MAX
                                                            
                       CHIEF OF POLICE
Thank you Max for helping us find
Duncan Donuts and stop his killing
wave.
                                                            
                       MAX
Thank you as well officer. I'm
just glad he wasn't able to kill
my cereal before you guys came.
                                                            
                       CHIEF OF POLICE
Well, now his wave of crime has
finally been stopped and people
can eat breakfast in peace.
                                                            
                       OFFICER
Sir, we should turn the chair on
fast. His last meal is Fruit Loops
and it's getting ugly.
                                                            
ANGLE ON KILLER AS HE'S EATING THE CEREAL
                                                            
                       MAX
      (Grossed out
       looking)
EEEEWWW!You're right. It is pretty
bad! Can I pull the switch
officer?

                       CHIEF OF POLICE
      (smiling, but when
       looking at Killer
       is grossed out)
Sure you can. I really don't want
to look at him much longer.

sorry but it just wasn't any good

From Todd Smith Date 1/27/2011 1/2
HMMM... Yeah I get it, just not very funny.

From Cecilio Hernandez Date 1/27/2011 ***
Definately Korny made me laugh. It would be funny to see on SNL or something.

From Paul Rothbart Date 1/14/2011 1/2
This is really not funny. The cereal killer joke is hack, it's been done to death. I know it's just a short, but it's also incorrectly formatted and poorly written.

From Alexander Ramirez Date 1/10/2011 ***
This got a laugh out of me. There's fertile ground for some absurdist satire here if you choose to expand on this.

From Kit Date 1/5/2011 ****
Lol Loved it roger i wa funy ~rachel M from school

From vito jennette Date 1/5/2011 **
