SPOOF/FARCE. It’s the final episode of “Willow Parks,” the longest-running primetime soap opera in the history of TV, and they’re airing the show live for the first time. All goes smoothly until the show’s matriarch falls asleep and the cast has to drag her body off the set. Having played a doctor on TV for 15 years, Mira discovers that she’s not a real doctor and that her medical instruments are actually props. Midway through the show, an actor quits and the other cast members have to play the scene as if the character is there even though she isn’t. Then when an actor is murdered, the security guard agrees to fill in but only if he can play the part with Shakespearean flair. The laughs are nonstop in this wildly funny soap opera spoof!
