electrons is bringing the truth to you Philistines. Testify!

When people say they don't find Mr. Show to be funny, I really question whether or not they have a sense of humor.

"Caller, may I just say that you have called the exactamufungdoubley right place for all of your assistamentary needs."

"It is good news about Van Halen. Like the lotus, they bloom for you again and again."

The Civil War: The Re-enactments

Taint fucking Magazine?

C'mon, people...

coupon the movie.

"and you'll never beileve the surprise ending... where THIS happens!"

any of the ronnie dobbs sketches, but especially the one where they're recording overdubs for the cop show. "can't a man drink his beer in silence? / can't a man crudely lie and scream? / can't a man control his bitch with violence? / y'all are brutalizing me."

the lie detector sketch, with "...it's crack. it gets you really high" and, "have you ever taken a train and eaten it, piece by piece... AFTER you just derailed it with your penis?!"

the faux-hemingway sketch describing the sound of the lion's roar...

the devastator, as mentioned above... "the altered state of druggachusettes" sketch, the law school sketch ("...you will leave here with your heads full of SOUP...")... the class trip up teacher's mom's asshole.

i can't see how anyone wouldn't like this show. i'll admit there are sporadic moments when david cross comes off like a one-dimensional turd, but everything from the fake commercials for goods/services to the long musical numbers has at least one (if not many) brilliant, quotable line(s).

Never found Odenkirk or Cross to be incredibly amusing performers to start with, and that made the bits nothing but total endurance tests for me. Crap.

Mr. Show could never be crap, Run Ronnie Run sucked, but hey, it's hard making movies, especially if based on a ten minute bit from a t.v. show.

Mr Show is worth it for the Taint episode alone.

That quote can't be left hanging...couldn't resist.

Trigger Happy TV - blech! CRAP. And that goes for all hidden camera "prank" shows.

Mr. Show - N/C - the gay metal band ("dude, suck that shit!"), Grass Valley Greg, Pit-Pat

THTV over Mr. Show? In bizarroland, maybe.

Not crap. Best DVD commentary tracks on the face of the earth (at least until I get that German DVD of They Live with the Rowdy Roddy Piper commentary). And nobody can yell "GOD DAMMIT!" quite like Bob Odenkirk.

Ya'll got fake poo?

Always been a fan of the Globocom one... with the Bag Hutch.

The last commercial on there with the guy guy just swearing is fantastic.
