This is the only one that nobody's replied to yet; initially I was unable to post it, so when I finally tried again, I was very excited.

This was a good outline. I like the fact that you decided to include Muppet Sports.

I'm glad you liked Muppet Sports. That was a last minute addition; had to pad it out a little. I only used Muppet Sports one other time in the Bing Crosby outline; just FYI.

Any more backstage stuff going on during this'un? One other question, how does umbrella dueling work? Is it people dueling with umbrellas or living umbrellas dueling each other?

I liked it Brian.
Just as a suggestion could Wayne's meeting with Marvin actually take place somehow during the cold opening however it would be put together.
Maybe Wayne has always admired Marvin's ability to appeal to audiences and asks him to tutor him then. So Wayne and Marvin could be a team right from the beginning with the opening number as well.
Also I love Wanda making a surprise appearance at the end and maybe Sam could also appear and say "I'm so proud of you for the way you worked so well tonight my boy" and Wanda could say "So am I" and kisses him.

If you like my suggestions fair enough but they are only suggestions buddy. After all if you just keep doing everything others tell you to it becomes no longer your own work. I know from my story-writing hobby how very true this is.
