I recently read about this episode of A Different World—a spin-off of The Cosby Show.

In this episode, Dwayne Wayne, an engineering student, has to write a poem for one of his classes.  He suffers writer's block, falls asleep, and has a dream—or is it a dream?—in which Shakespeare gives him some advice about writing.
