Pasquale Murena
Family-Friendly Comedy Writer and Director
I create TV shows, films, and comedy sketches that kids love and parents trust. Ultimately, stories the whole family can enjoy together.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with comedy legends like Tim Conway, Carol Burnett, Jonathan Winters, and Bob Newhart. I’ve also built holiday traditions for millions of families through I Spot Santa. A holiday website dedicated to joyful, family-friendly entertainment.
My mission is simple: to tell smart, funny, and heartwarming stories that bring families together. Blending classic comedy with timeless characters that audiences return to year after year.

Where Hollywood story telling meets independent filmmaking.
Smart Family-Friendly Comedy
I write stories that work for all ages, the type of shows and films families can watch together. No cheap laughs, no talking down to kids. Just clever humor, heartfelt moments, and timing that hits every time.
- TV and feature scripts designed for kids and adults alike
- Holiday specials and short-form comedy with big rewatch value
- Classic slapstick and witty wordplay that never gets old
Character-Driven Storytelling
Whether it’s live action, comedy legends, or unforgettable puppets, I know how to make characters stick. I create personalities audiences remember and direct performances that feel alive. Hilariously over-the-top, without losing the heart of the story.
- Original characters families love year after year
- Direction for actors, comedians, and puppeteers
- Physical comedy that moves the story forward, not just gags
Production That Feels Big (On Any Budget)
Hollywood budgets are nice, not that anyone’s offered me one yet. But I’ve spent my career proving you don’t need millions to make a story feel big. My productions lean on creativity, smart set design, and practical effects to make every frame count.
- Modular sets and clever props for any size shoot
- Small, efficient crews delivering high-quality results
- Award-winning films and shows that rack up millions of views
