My Show's most popular character...

My TV show's most popular character is Slappy, the small little red-head boy from Sweden. This sketch is all about him.

HOST: Hello, I'm Jessie Kan, and you're watching the Lovely Lovers show!
AUDIENCE APPLAUDES
HOST: Well let's meet our blind-date victim for today, Sallista Tano, everybody!
SALLISTA APPEARS FROM BEHIND THE CURTAIN.
SALLISTA: I'm so excited to be here, Jessie!
JESSIE: I'd be excited if I didn't hate my life so much!
SALLISTA: What?
JESSIE: I said I'm excited that you've been a wife so... much... anyway, let's get the three contestants out here.
THE THREE CONTESTANTS APPEAR, TWO ARE PERFECT, AND THEN THERE'S SLAPPY.
JESSIE: Wow! One is a ridiculously rich oil baron from Euroupe. One is a poet from Maine, and one is a small, 19 year-old boy from Sweden. It's up to you to put the faces to the personalities! I think I'll drink some pesticides.
SALLISTA: What?
JESSIE: I said let's go down...the...slippy slide.
SALLISTA: Ok... I'm gonna say the man in the suit is the oil baron, the man in the sweater is the 19 year old boy, and the red head is the poet from Maine! And I wanna go out with the person who I think is the poet from Maine!
JESSIE: Whoa, whoa. Little off there. The man in the sweater is the poet from Maine, I'm afraid you just set yourself up with a small 19 year old boy from Sweden.
SALLISTA: What?!
SLAPPY: Come to Papa!
SALLISTA: Ewww!
JESSIE: Well, we'll check in with them later, I'm Jessie Kan, and I wish I was never born!

I'd try to focus on one of the characters. You seem to be splitting between the two main ones, to the detriment of both.

Slappy is really not fleshed out at all. We do not care that Sallista has selected him. Being a 19 year-old is
not sufficiently negative enough. If she selected him from the group, he might be H.O.T.T.! You never
know what he kind of bod he's hiding under that sweater. He could be part of the national wrestling team,
newly returned from winning the World Championship Title back from the Americans. What a hero
that Slappy is!

Is slappy a returning character?
If so, then you should post the other
skits that he has been in, in order to
make this one make any sense.

I like the "xxx" "what?" "rhymes with xxx" stuff. Especially when the "rhymes with" doesn't make any sense. That character is good. Echoes of the above comments with regard to slappy.
